My stay at Thistle London Piccadilly was lovely, particularly due to its fantastic location. I could stroll to major sights like Leicester Square and Chinatown in minutes. However, the breakfast had room for improvement. while it was included, the offerings felt rather basic and sometimes uninviting.

I had a fantastic stay at Thistle London Piccadilly, predominantly due to its prime location near major attractions like Leicester Square and Piccadilly Circus. The rooms were spacious and clean, providing a comfortable sanctuary despite the bustling city outside. I appreciated the attentive staff who were helpful in managing a fire alarm incident, which showcased their professionalism in a tense moment. However, I did encounter a strange smell from the bathroom occasionally, likely due to old plumbing, which detracted slightly from the experience.
