London - The Strand Palace or Resident Inn at Covent Garden

Hands down the Strand Palace.

I have not stayed at The Strand Palace, but I have stayed at The Resident Victoria (note it is not the Resident Inn). I really loved my stay there, and it's probably one of my favorite hotels. The service was exceptional. The rooms were lovely and included a kitchenette, with a Nespresso, hot water kettle, microwave, sink and dishwasher. There were lots of benefits, including a social hour every evening in the lobby with free wine and snacks, which was a very nice way to meet other travelers staying there. I enjoyed multiple conversations with other people and really liked it.

In terms of cost comparison, have you priced it with the member's discount? Anyone who is a member (which is free), receives a 15% discount off the total price.

Lulu, if you want more replies, you might want to edit the title of your thread to note the correct name of the hotel, which is "The Resident Covent Garden." Right now, people probably think you're talking about a Marriott Resident Inn.

There is a "Resident Covent Garden", which looks nicer than the Strand Palace.

Lin C., that's the one I was talking about. It's wonderful. It's really a lovely place to stay.

My sister-in-law and niece stayed at the Strand Palace in late July and were very happy with it.

OP here, I’ve booked The Strand!
