"a very good experience "
Citadines Apart Hotel Barbican's Room was ok, a bit small, but bigger than in London usuaylly. I've stayed in various hotels in London and Citadines is the best by far.
The staff was friendly and helpful. We asked for the information about a bus going to Liverpoolstr. Station and the person checking us out double checked that we had got the information and knew where to go.
All in all a very good experience to stay at Citadines. Would definetely recommend it to my friends and will stay in it again.

"in an ideal location "
Citadines Apart Hotel Barbican was in an ideal location to visit my son who is at University nearby and close to transport tosee London city and attractions. I would stay again due to its convenience plus hotel staff were very nice nothing was too much trouble.
only two points to make water when showering was tepid and number of pillows was only two but I was given more on asking but this would not stop me from booking again.

"Actually I thought it was really good!"
Ive just come back from a long weekend (3 nights) staying in the citadines aparthotel in trafalgar square. Its possible that because I am used to travelling on a budget (and my budget at that, not a company one) that my expectations are lower than the other reviewers here - but I was actually very pleased with it.
For £80 a night, all in, me and my partner got a clean and very presentable room, in a fantastic central location (one minute from the tube, and there was even a tesco express two hundred yards away for food shopping), a good bathroom, with a decent shower and plenty of hot water, a compact kitchen with everything we needed (including dishwasher), and a reasonable sized room with a table, chairs and a double sofa bed (which pulled out into a bed very easily in about 10 seconds and was more comfy than it looked). In addition to this the staff were friendly and competent
I have stayed in London a few times over the years and for the money (because lets face it, London is a rip off at the best of times!) I thought it was really good. We were happy to make our own breakfasts and evening meals (and when it suited us, not the hotel kitchens) and saved a ton of money doing it (did I say I was used to travelling on a budget?!)
Its no 4 star palace, but if your lookin for somewhere that is central, clean and that allows you more flexibility than a traditional b&b or hotel then I would heartily recommend this place. I will definitely be staying here when I visit london again.

"Nice Little Home in the City"
After encountering some problems with our original lodgings, we found the Citadines Barbican, and moved there for a week. We were very pleased with the room, which was small but efficient, pleasant and comfortable. The staff was wonderful, and the free internet in the lobby was a nice plus. The Coconut Lagoon (an Indian restaurant) connects to the hotel, and it was very good. I really love this area, near St. Paul's, the Museum of London, and the City. The Barbican tube station is just a block and a half away, and we were able to get a taxi within a minute or two at any time of the day. I plan to spend another week here in April, and for the price (75 pounds per night), I couldn't find anything else in the area that compared.

"Excellent location"
Citadines Trafalgar square was ok. We were on a weekend break and stayed in a studio, room 517. From the window there was absolutely no view, but the room was on a quiet side of the building so we got a good night's sleep. Room was ok, a bit small, but bigger than in London usuaylly. I've stayed in various hotels in London and Citadines is the best by far.
We didin't cook but we appreciated water boiler so we could make ourselves a cup of tee. Also the fridge was nice, and there was a Tesco market at Trafalgar square to buy sandwitches from. If you want to eat breakfast downstairs, it costs 9 pounds - expensive.
The bathroom was big and clean. Only problem was that the tap in the shower was really tight. You had to lift it with all your strenght to get the water to come out. At first we didn't and thought the shower was broken, so we got moved to a room 410. There we tried the tap and noticed that you need to use a lot of strenght. So we asked to get back to room 517 which felt like a nicer room.
The staff was friendly and helpful. We asked for the information about a bus going to Liverpoolstr. Station and the person checking us out double checked that we had got the information and knew where to go.
All in all a very good experience to stay at Citadines. Would definetely recommend it to my friends and will stay in it again.
