As an ex-pat Brit I've been using 1 Aldwych as my go-to London base for a couple of years now. The location is great, the service is friendly, and I like the general design of the hotel. Rooms are pretty quiet despite central location. The gym is particularly spacious and they have an awesome pool. I had a facial there... More

Stayed on a Friday night when we went to see Top Hat at the nearby Adelphi theatre. We were surprised at how quiet the room was considering it is right on Aldwych.

Beautiful hotel, excellent service, rooms a bit small but it seems that is always the case in London. Room was gorgeous,staff are extremely helpful and friendly - really first class service and nothing was too much trouble - I had forgotten my iphone 5 charger and they immediately brought one to the room. Breakfast was truly amazing.
