STRAND PALACE in London?

Has anybody stayed in the Strand Palace lately? I was there 10 yrs ago, and it was a dump, with a lobby like a zoo. Now I hear it's refurbished, so maybe it's a lot nicer. Anybody know? The location's great--across from the Savoy.

If you have not already done so I would suggest you do a Search at the top of the page as there has been quite a lot of discussion about the Strand Palace recently.

You say the position's great, the Savoy I never feel is in a good postion unless, you're a lawyer, or love Covent Garden.

Mayfair/Knightsbridge/Kensington are, in my opinion much more favourable areas.

A friend of mine stayed there in August and checked out after one night. Apparently, he could touch both walls with his outstretched arms! What's your budget?

The only thing about the Savoy that's annoying is its facade is hidden!!

As you say the Strand Palace is in a good location,easy access to Trafalgar Sq,Westminster,London Eye,theatreland,Charing Cross station waterloo station,embankment,covent garden.Also several main bus routes go right passed the door.After the refurb,this is a good middle ranged hotel.
