London - The Strand Palace or Resident Inn at Covent Garden

The Strand Palace is much cheaper for a week (2 rooms), by about a $900. That’s no necessarily a dealbreaker if the Resident Inn is that much nicer. For those who have stayed at either, or both, what are your opinions? Thank you.

I have not stayed at The Strand Palace, but I have stayed at The Residence 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.
