Otherwander Soho Pod Hotel (ADULTS ONLY)

10/10 Excellent
"Pods (or ‘nests’) very comfortable. Excellent sound proofing. Was woken up by someone moving around in the nest below me but presumably they were a very tall person who couldn’t fit in properly. Enough room for a large backpack or small suitcase. Pack light. Bathrooms very quiet and clean. Very chilled atmosphere. Would definitely stay again. Ideal for a short London stay if you just need somewhere quiet and clean to crash. Excellent location. No free tea or coffee but vending machines and a Tesco across the road. A nice experience."

"A very nice hotel in a great location. Despite being on the busy Charing Cross Road, the room was very quiet. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. For one person the room was the perfect size. However, I think it would be a bit cramped for two people. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again and have no hesitation in recommending it."
