You cab get a nasty prick from a Thistle - user review
Now I am one of those poor sad people who travel every couple of months on business, so it's still exciting to get away for a night or two. Usually my meetings are in The Whitehall area so I stay near there. However this t...

Stayed in the Thistle Victoria for three nights in December 2002. I was on the fourth floor overlooking the rear of the hotel with a view of the roof of Victoria station. The main disadvantage of this was that the station publi...

Convenient location - user review
I'm sure the hotel was very grand at one time, but it is very run down. The paint was peeling off the walls and ceiling in the bathroom and the carpet was threadbare. Also it has no air conditioning, so we had to keep the windows open all night in a very noisy area of town. On the positive side, the...

Conveniently located - user review
We choose this hotel for its location. It is connected to the Victoria Station and you don't have to go out of the station to get to it. Nice lobby and restaurant. Friendly staff. Room near repair/remodel. Old and beat up furniture. Tiny beds on casters, have to be careful getting on and off them. T...

Location, Location, Location - user review
We stayed here 3 nights and returned for one night a week later. The first room was clean, but old and a bit run down with a dusty smell, no heat or a/c control, but a ceiling fan that sounded like a 747 taking off. The room was typical of any older hotel. The location is excellent, with the tube & ...
