Thanks to another friend’s Marriott \u00a3400 offer, I was able to try out the W Hotel<\/a> before the tier-4 madness kicks in…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hotel is very, very central – in fact if you search for London hotels on Marriott’s website<\/a> the W Hotel is always the first one to come up. I see the hotel every time I visit Chinatown or Soho, which was why I wasn’t so excited to visit it initially.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ground floor has only a small concierge desk, and you need to go to floor one to check in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reception area is also very small, and dark. I’m staying here for two nights, and fortunately the hotel will remain open until the day of my departure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Very thankfully, I was upgraded to a Marvellous Suite on the 6th floor. I’m quite amused by the fact that the first thing I see when opening the door is the bathroom, how unique!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the very first time I’m staying at a W hotel, and I find its quirkiness very entertaining. I was looking for the toilet and shower, only to find that they are hidden behind the mirrors:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the amenities come with very naughty packaging and descriptions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feel free to enjoy a bath overlooking the street:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bedroom is pretty fashionable and smart too, with a massive bed. All things including TV, temperature and lighting can be controlled using the iPad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a proper spacious suite with a curved long wall. Given its location and height though there isn’t much of a view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Breakfast is in-room dining only and you could order from the iPad. I had eggs benedict for the first morning and full English for the next. Food quality is good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gym is located on the 6th floor, along with the SPA centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The staff I’ve spoken with are all very helpful. I’m genuinely impressed by the stay and really love the pleasant surprises the hotel has given me. If Amex runs similar offers in the future I’m happy to return\ud83d\ude1c<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
