We stayed at the MPL for a weekend visit to London. We selected this particular hotel as we were going to a Prom on the Friday and thought it was close enough to walk across the Park to the Albert Hall.
The checking in process was smooth and professional. The room was very pleasant, and although we were told it had a view of the Park, this was only possible by leaning to one side and getting a glimpse. It did have a view of Marble Arch so we could not really complain.
For once we booked an executive room so we had the use of the executive longe for snacks, drinks and breakfast. This worked really well as it was less formal than the restaurant breakfast, and although the choice was not so extensive, there was enough.
We did not eat in the restaurant as we had eaten out both days of our stay, but the bar staff brought plenty of nibbles to go with the wine we had.
The location is in quite a busy area and so the bar was buzzing, however we did not notice any major noise at night in our room.
Am not so sure it is a reasonable walk to the Albert Hall - although it was not too bad going as it was a pleasant evening, we did get a taxi back after walking part of the way as it did seem much longer, but that could have been the effect fo the wine drunk in the restaurant.
On Saturday we spent the morning sightseeing, Hyde Park, Marble Arch, No 1 London and surrounding area, Green Park, Royal Academy and a wander back through Regent Street, Bond Street and Oxford Street etc. before having lunch at Spaghetti House, on Woodstock Street. This was excellent, very good service and value for money.
The trip to the theatre in the evening was a fairly short taxi ride.
Overall a good stay and would certainly go back.
