We stayed in one of the Apartments attached to the Hotel with our 2 small children, plus had a single in the Hotel for my mother-in-law. Fantastic place to stay in London - we'll never stay anywhere else in the future. Loved having a kitchen to fix breakfasts and coffees - several times we went to a local store and... more

I booked this as a 'top secret' hotel through Last Minute. Within half an hour of making the booking one of the team from the hotel had called to see if there was anything extra I'd like, if it was for an occassion etc. It was a wedding anniversary so I told them this but declined the extras (£50 for... more

I have just returned from a weekend break in London for my husbands 30th birthday. I had booked the hotel as one of the 'last minute.com' mystery 5* hotels as I wanted to be near the west end. Once the hotel was confirmed I sent them an email upgrading from the standard double room to an executive room for an... more

I booked the Athenaeum for my 3rd year anniversary. We arrived early to use the spa facilities and were told our room was ready even though it wasn't check in time. The people behind reception were very helpful and one man kindly showed us to our room. When we got to our room I was just blown away. They had... more

My husband and I just spent two very romantic nights at the Athenaeum. The staff went above and beyond in trying to help make our last two nights special. Upon check in, the girls behind the desk were warm, friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious, clean and tastefully decorated. After watching the most fabaulous musical we have every seen... more

The hotel was a pleasant surprise, even taking account of the previous comments. Welcome good. Room good (despite being without a view and not being upgraded like many previous reviewers). Radio has a good selection of channels. Handy location - short walk to Green Park underground, shepherd's market, Hyde Park. The size and position of the bath have something to... more

We stay in London quite regularly and normally stay at one of the Hiltons but, having recently lost the privileges we had from having a Hilton Honours gold card, we no longer see the Hilton chain as being such an attractive proposition so we have been trying out a number of the other 5 star hotels this year such as... more

We booked the "Christmas in London" tour from Maupintour and we stayed at this hotel. It was first class all the way - from the bellman to the desk staff. We stayed in the apartments and they were beautifully decorated with antiques as well as contemporary (as in, plasma televisions in both the living room and bedroom). The only complaint... more

We have just returned from 1 night stay in the 5* Athenaeum and it was perfect bliss. On arrival we were upgraded to an apartment. From arriving the service was brilliant from every member of staff. Our bags and coats were taken to our apartment and our car was parked and returned for us(parking cost £30pn). It was a total... more
