Staff were exceptionally accomodating. Answered all of our questions about the area. Conveniently located, short walk to Pimlico Tube station and reasonable walk to Victoria station. Walking distance to all the major attractions in Westminister. Room was small, as expected in London. The coffee and pastries in the morning were a bonus. Absolutely nothing bad to say about the hotel or staff.

The Melita was wonderful. Such a beautiful, quiet location. The room was clean and well attended. The morning pastries were lovely. The staff was friendly. Couldn’t have asked for much more. Can’t recommend staying here enough.

The single room (1 person) was the smallest room I've ever stayed in, in 40 years of traveling. It wasn't terrible if you're not planning on a lot of room tim, which I wasn't. The staff was very responsive to any request I had. Pastries and coffee served in the AM.

I stayed in the single room (Room 24). Got the room on extremely short notice, which I was grateful for. If you're interested in a place that is close to PLAB exam spot near Vincent square, this is a great location. It is a 5-8 minute walk.

I have never encountered such a welcoming staff!!! They are truly committed to making your stay with them as comfortable as possible! I encountered some room challenges, with a tiny room and tepid water for the shower. As long as you are prepared for that, you will be fine!

First impressions were excellent! The hotel is well situated, easy to get to and in a quiet (yet very central) neighborhood. Even though we arrived incredibly early (hoping only to store our luggage until the room was ready), management/ownership graciously found a way to get us into a room early in the morning!! This was unexpected and MUCH appreciated. Our room was on the top floor (in a building with no elevator) - but the hotel made sure we had help getting our bags up to our room. Our stay included specialty coffee and pastries at breakfast. These were DELICIOUS and waking-up to the aroma of freshly baking pastry was heavenly. We loved our stay here. The room was spacious and lots of hot water in the shower. I wish there was a way to have some sort of air conditioning in the rooms and not just fans. Our room was rather warm on at least one night, even with the fans running. This is a very minor criticism as we booked the hotel knowing that A/C was not available. Location was fabulous - we were able to get everywhere in London with ease. We even walked to Buckingham Palace! Area felt very safe, even when returning to the hotel at night. Overall, highly recommended!

The property is centrally located and is within walking distance or a bus hop to most central London attractions. This is not a hotel but looks like a row house converted to tourist rooms. The room was too tiny with no headspace. It was dusty and dirty with hair all over (gross). The bathroom was too tiny and impractical to take a shower. And worst, there was no lift and it was hard to climb up and down narrow and steep stairs well. We ended up moving to Park Plaza a couple of blocks away, for the same price. It was a proper hotel!
