Blakemore Hyde Park

Place: positioned in very safe and clean neighbourhood, near beautiful Hyde park, underground is not so far as other guests commented (700-800m approximately). Rooms: clean, with big toilets, AC is working even when card is not inserted (when you are out of the room) if you leave it on, which is really good if you want to come to fresh room especially in summer. You get complimentary 2 bottles of water daily. I didn’t have any problems with fridge, it was cool and kept everything cold. Beds were comfortable and you had various pillows option. Breakfast: Coffee machine made perfect espresso, but some food as eggs were bland without any taste (not even salty) but I think that’s more UK thing with food… Even If I am not sweet tooth they had very good croissants, jams, honey, cereals and also melon and mango was there which is thumbs up, but I think they can make more meat options. For breakfast you can also find sausages (good), fried cheese (good), eggs (tasteless, bland), ham (good), beans (not bad), low fat greek yogurt with various tastes were very very good. Gym (exceptional): what surprised me the most was the gym which had treadmills, stationery bike, 2-20kg dumbbells, wire station with various attachments, bench (small adjustable), bar with weights, water fountain, disinfectants, towels. This is very god for small to medium sized hotel as this one. Which was not so perfect: Even if the cleaning staff was fast and very efficient and room was always perfectly clean, one morning they were so loud with cleaning the hall that they woke me up. Also at 6:00 if your room is positioned near trash leaving site you can hear workers cleaning it and waking you up almost every morning with soumd of cracking glass, but other things were very good. All accounted hotel was nice, staff was very eager to help, bar and reception was good, yes elevator is maybe smaller but you have 2 you can use (depends on position of the room), so no problem with it.
