Holiday Inn London - Oxford Circus

Great location and great staff. The rooms are a little stuffy (at least the one we were in). Overall, it was a good stay - very good value for location and friendly staff.

Prós: The location is excellent and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

Contras: The room we were assigned had not been renovated in a very long time and the hotel lobby was still under renovation (however, the renovations do look great and are well needed).

Prós: Great location - close to bond street station, 2 stops from Leicester station, lovely walk down Bond Street.

Contras: Three stars seems a little generous. The rooms are clean, not huge (but probably average for Britain), but the walls seem fairly thin, the water temperature was inconsistent, and the staff at the front desk, while friendly, seemed a little overwhelmed.
