Room was adequately sized, loved the complimentary expresso every morning from your own expresso machine in the room, literally steps away from the Temple tube station, but also close enough to nearby attractions (Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, London Eye) where you can stroll along Thames River. Staff was attentive and professional. My only complaint was the way they charge for internet usage (15GBP) when it should be free for this type of hotel. One final complaint was the fire alarm that went off the morning of our last stay, but it's not the hotel fault.

We thouroughly enjoyed our stay in London and in particular the Swissotel/Howard. It was clean, service was great (entire staff) and hotel very quiet (back side of hotel). The location was also the best..near the tube, covent gardens, theater district and many major attractions. We would go their again in an instant!

Excellent location. It is within walking distance of the main london attractions and 5 minutes from Covent Garden (where all the theatres are). Rooms are big, clean and have very nice views. Attentive staff. Superb restaurant and nice cosy Bar.

Great location with amazing views over the River Thames. Extremely nice staff and attentive service. The rooms are very specious, clean and comfortable. The hotel has a hidden garden which is ideal for this time of the year and the restaurant called JAAN serves superb food. A highly recommend the Wild Pigeon with Foie Gras!!Location could be better. It is 5 minutes walk from Covent Garden and Temple Tube station is just opposite the hotel.
