The Academy - Small Luxury Hotels Of The World, London (GB) - Deals & Reviews

beautifully designed common areas, charming cobblestone locale, access to tea and coffee facilities

Lack of elevator access made it frustrating to reach rooms on higher floors!!! The vague WiFi information could be clearer instead of having to ask for details!!!

Cozy spot with great service. Loved the happy hour and live music events. No lift access makes it tough for heavy luggage. Perfect location for exploring nearby attractions.

Request a complimentary drink while waiting for your room. it's a nice touch during a delayed check-in.

I had a professional stay at The Academy, where the room was well-appointed with a cozy bed and a well-stocked complimentary drinks fridge. The staff were attentive, assisting with any requests efficiently. The location is superb, within walking distance to major tube stations, which made commuting for business meetings very convenient.

The absence of an elevator made accessing the top floor challenging, especially with luggage.

Beautiful room but bed sheets were stained upon arrival.

The location was amazing! Just steps away from the British Museum. The courtyard was a peaceful retreat after a busy day. Only downside was the no lift access, which was tough with heavy bags. 😅

Excellent location near the British Museum.

No lift access, making it quite challenging to reach higher floors.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at The Academy. The charming decor added to the historic ambiance, making it feel like home. Despite the absence of a lift, the warm hospitality and thoughtful staff made my experience memorable.

An Unforgettable Birthday Stay

I recently celebrated my birthday at this luxurious hotel, and the experience was fantastic! From the warm welcome at check-in with an upgrade to a suite, to the complimentary bottle of red wine and a thoughtful birthday note, I felt truly special. The hotel’s location made exploring various attractions incredibly convenient, and the delicious continental breakfast, especially the freshly baked pastries, was a delightful start to my day. one improvement could be clearer information on breakfast charges during check-in.

excellent service with some room for improvement

The staff demonstrated exceptional care and attention throughout my stay, showing immense pride in their work. The location provided easy access to local attractions, and the food was truly outstanding.

The room could use some updates to match the overall excellence of the service.

Had a great time with friends! We loved the Academy Book Club for its cozy vibe. Plus, an exclusive tour with Travel Curious took us to the Tower of London and Buckingham Palace, super informative! The courtyard was a nice spot to unwind after a day out, and the location made exploring easy.

But, we did have an issue with our room not being cleaned on one day, which was a bit of a letdown.

Request a room on a lower floor if you have mobility concerns, as there is no elevator access.

Can't recommend highly enough for a break on long journey

Comfortable room, delightful staff, thoroughly enjoyed the essential amenities like the clean shower and complimentary toiletries, and found the location conveniently close to Goodge Street just a short walk away.

Everything was perfect.

perfectly situated near covent garden and hyde park for strolls

the hotel's fantastic location made exploring the city super easy, just a short walk to bustling covent garden and the serene beauty of hyde park, which I truly appreciated during my weekend getaway as a single traveler.

Ideal for a peaceful getaway

The bathroom was spick and span with really good water pressure in the shower and every afternoon I came back to find the room tidied up just so every time creates a nice little routine

It wasn't exactly cheap but for what you get it was frankly acceptable
