Reviews for Great Scotland Yard Hotel London
Historic hotel, perfect location
Fantastic location and wonderful service from all staff. So much history associated with this location, don't miss the 40 Elephants restaurant and bar.

Weekend in London
Amazing experience, staff were very friendly and helpful. A very interesting hotel, with all the history within the building; the decorative elements and artwork were an additional bonus to look at.

Great hotel
Great location! Everyone one we encountered was very helpful. Room was small but similar in size to rooms in New York or Paris.

A hidden gem in the heart of London
Great Scotland Yard Hotel is a wonderful find — small, quiet, and full of character. The staff are incredibly guest-focused and super friendly, which made the stay feel extra special. The food and beverage outlets are warm, charming, and of exceptional quality — some of the best I’ve experienced in London. The location is unbeatable. Just steps from Trafalgar Square, you’re within easy walking distance of Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, The London Eye, Covent Garden, the theatre district, and countless museums and galleries. A perfect mix of charm, comfort, and convenience. I can’t wait to return!

Great staff, location, and decor
Love the Great Scotland Yard! Only stayed one night with my family, wish we were there longer. All the staff were very friendly, really welcoming to kids. The best location in close walking distance to Big Ben, London Eye, Trafalgar Square, and Covent Garden. Excellent breakfast, nice bar, and a hidden speakeasy. The room decor is beautiful and the shower is heavenly. I’ll be back!
