Amba Hotel Charing Cross

The perfect, centrally located hotel!

I arrived early, 7 am and was able to check into my room straight away. Not the largest room ever, but perfectaly accommodated for single travel. The English breakfast on the first floor is totally worth it! I’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

Location, location, location

Very convenient location. Near everything, tube station at the door. Central London, West end within walking distance.

Small room. Has everything you need.

Fabulous!

Clean, modern hotel in a central location with large rooms and good amenities. Staff are very friendly, and extremely knowlegeable and helpful with directions and suggestions.

Outstanding Staff and location

The hotel was elegant without being pretentious. The entire staff, really everyone, were: friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, intelligent, observant and consistently went above expectations. They helped us feel so at home in a new city. The location at Trafalgar Square/Charing Cross was ideal, full access to the city and all of its charms.

The room cooler had a weak seal and kept heating rather than cooling if the door wasn't carefully closed. There was minimal storage space for clothing...tiny closet and no drawer space.

Great Hotel, Great Staff, Great Location

Near many tourist attractions and two Tube stations, the hotel is in a great spot. The staff was friendly and very helpful. They even let me check into my room when I arrived from my early flight at 9am! The rooms were nice and clean, breakfast was great too.

Great Location, Facilities & Staff

Friendly staff, cleanliness, facilities, location.

Wonderful location.

No complaints. Would stay again or recommend to others.

The hotel had just the perfect location for us, situated as it was within a 10-minute walk of Leicester Square, Soho, Trafalgar Square, the National Gallery, St Martins-in-the-Field, Covent Garden, The Strand, and so much more. Our room was on the 3rd floor, directly above the entrance to Charing Cross Station and practically overlooking Trafalgar Square. Amazingly, we could hardly ever hear a sound from outside! The windows had great soundproofing, I guess. The only sounds that appeared to get through were when the street musicians played amplified guitars at night, and they seemed to stop at a decent hour so it wasn't all that disruptive. Staff were always friendly and welcoming. The room was comfortable with all modern conveniences including a soothing rainwater shower with plenty of hot water. The complimentary minibar was a nice surprise, too.
