The staff are friendly and professional. They easily remembered our daily requests without reminder. House keeping was prompt and turndown service was excellent. I really enjoyed the novel approach they have to in house dining. They partner with local establishments to deliver your dinner directly to the property’s formal dining room. One-site breakfast has many options. Bonus, the room we were in had heated bathroom floors. Walking distance to underground stations, and several museums a few blocks away, make this a great location. I would happily come back.

The Adria has just undergone some rejuvenation and looks and feels splendid as a result. But what really made our stay exceptional was the friendliness and attentiveness of all of the staff.

The hotel is located in a very nice neighborhood, with shopping and restaurants near by. Clean, quiet and well appointed. A few blocks from a couple underground stations which made getting around London easy. The staff was excellent as well. already rebooked for our next trip in June.

Quick check in. I've stayed in the same room twice before. I like knowing what to expect. This time small dust bin under desk missing so I had to use the bathroom one. Hot water took a while to come through; ended up having to ask reception desk to come to the room to advise. I will most likely stay here again, though.
