Access to Heathrow is direct via the Piccadilly Line. From/to Westminster,Piccadilly Circus in the city center, and even to northern destinations like Emirates Stadium, it's all one subway ride—super convenient. The single rooms are a bit small, but the staff are friendly and the atmosphere is really confortable. It's a safe area with plenty of fine restaurants and pubs. Definitely would like to stay here again next time!
