惠靈頓藍蘭花酒店(Wellington Hotel by Blue Orchid)

Near Buckingham Palace and Westminster abbey

They checked us in then didn’t have a room for my daughter and I. After waiting an hour we were given a room with a window next to the kitchen exhaust because they could not find our information. The room had an awaful food smell that I was hoping would get removed by the air vents but the ac didn’t work and opening the window only made the smell worse. Night 2 and 3 they ended up moving us to another property that was in construction that was less stars but the room smelled better. The hotel did there best to get us into a decent room but Trip.com refused to help in the matter. Trip.com refuses to adjust the pricing for the room I stayed in and will not make any adjustments or compensation. My total for the 3 nights in the room I requested was $667 the total for the rooms I actually stay in was $250. I should have been refunded for my overpayment however Trip.com says they cannot protect their customers. This was hopefully a rare case but beware of using a third party site to book any room. I know this hotel would have helped me right away if I would have booked directly through them.

All in all a nice hotel reasonably priced for the location. Staff were very friendly and efficient and the room was comfortable. Bathroom a little dated and unfortunately my room was next to a generator outside which had an annoying but not awful hum throughout the night. I was upgraded to a larger room so didn’t think I could really complain. Overall happy to recommend
