Not what I expected
I just got back from a cruise and Carnival booked The Royal Lancaster Hotel for us,so I can't comment on the price, at all. The room wasn't what I'd expect from this hotel. It was so small and had twin beds. It was very clean, though and the service was excellent, after we checked in. I was very upset that we had to wait until four o'clock to check in. I sat in the lobby from about ten o'clock until after four, before we could get into our room. I didn't like that at all. They had flat screen televisions which was very nice. I just think the rooms were much too small for what we paid.

Great place to stay
Just got back from our first stay in London. Room was ready for our late check in, must have been very recently updated-new bathroom, carpet and bedding. Very clean, easy to crank up the heat. 11th floor was quieter than NYC and larger than we expected. Food at NIPA in hotel was very good, other restaurants within easy walk included Spice of India (right across street from entrance) and ASK a block away. (Italian chain in London).

GREAT location
Good: Our business group selected this hotel for a large group. The rooms were small but was fine for us because we crashed there after long days of tours and sightseeing.

Poor quality for such a price!
You will not find the luxury you would expect for such an expensive hotel; even worse, you will be puzzled, and sometimes disappointed, for its weird-to-humiliating rules and procedures!

Don't use calling cards!!
My husband and I recently just returned from a trip to London, England. During our checkout at the Royal Lancaster Hotel and to our surprise, we received an outrageous bill for just over 213 pounds in phone charges. (Approximately $420) At first we thought there had to be a mistake since each call charged was used to call the United States using an international calling card. After speaking with the front desk, we came to find out that an “error” in the way that we dialed out of the hotel caused the enormous phone bill.

It's good!
I like this hotel because the room is comfortable, clean and quiet. Services are good and the location is convenient because it nears the underground station.

A Gem in the Park
The Royal Lancaster Hotel, located adjacent to the majestic Hyde Park, is truly one of London's finest hotels! Their staff is second to none and very accomodating to whatever the request, regardless of the time.

What a bargain!
It was a weekend get away to london and it was a perfect location and price. Your backyard is Hyde park and you are a 5 minute walk to paddington station where the heathrow express drops you off or picks you up...we loved it! I would definitely suggest the hotel...
