10/10 Exceptional

Cute hotel with professional and kind staff. They always greet you with a smile and encourage questions about the area and nearby attractions. Complimentary pastries and coffee (machine for lattes, etc) available in the morning along with pleasant conversation. Rooms are small but this is typical for London accommodations. Enjoyed our stay!

A warm & friendly home away from home

I had a lovely stay at the Melita hotel. Anna & Cash who both worked in the reception was more than friendly, they were lovely. The atmosphere is warm and familiar the staff is more than helpful. Although the hotel doesn’t serve breakfast they offer free coffee and pastries in the morning to take into your room if wanted. The also offered a discount at a restaurant nearby for breakfast out. This hotel is my only choice next time in London

Personale gentilissimo e posizione ottimale!!

Sono stato 3 notti con la famiglia per vistare la città. Posizione ottimale, 5 minuti a piedi dalla metro di pimlico. Personale gentilissimo e competente. Ci hanno offerto tutte le mattine la colazione anche se non era compresa nel prezzo. Camere piccole ma non mancava niente. Pulizia ottima. Prezzo concorrenziale. Consigliatissimo!!

Excellent convenient hotel

The Melina was terror. Very welcoming and helpful with a comfy bed, hot shower with heated towel rack, and a specially brewed cup of coffee in the morning. They went beyond the call to make the service perfect. And the perfect place to stay for sights and choirs.

The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, helping us with finding the best ways to get around. Our room was clean and the location was perfect having two underground’s to chose from to get around. And good affordable restaurants around as well. We definitely enjoyed our stay here.

Really nice staff, room, and area. We loved the free coffee and pastries in the morning. The staff is outstanding, very pleasant and helpful. The entire hotel gives you the “home away from home” feeling. It’s a short work to all the major sightseeing attractions and to restaurants and pubs.

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.

Great location. Very convenient to the Victoria and Pimlico stations and the 24 bus stop (direct line to Westminster and Trafalgar Square) next to the hotel. The staff is very friendly and the hotel is clean. The Wi-Fi could be better, however.

A real gem in Pimlico

The best place I have stayed in Pimlico so far. The staff could not have been more helpful, no sneaky extra charges and a great comfortable room. I will be back

Friendly staff, clean room. Bonus light breakfast included. Check out is slightly earlier than standard.
Viswas, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Paul, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.

This is a go-to hotel of ours in London. Good location for us. However, like many of the converted hotels, the rooms are small, there are no lifts, and AC is lacking. Our room got a bit too warm, even in early June.

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.
