My wife and I spent 4 nights at the Hilton London Metropole during the Olympics.
The hotel has the great advantage of being in a strategic point of the city, a few steps from the Edgware Road metro station, from which pass several lines that lead to every point in London.
The largest typical of a Hilton hotel rooms divided into 3 sectors, including a tower, where we booked a deluxe room with king bed. The double bed is big, but the deluxe room has little ... certainly not the size, nor the bathroom (shower in the tub .... how can a 4-star hotel still have it in 2012?!?).
Beyond the small disappointment related to the room, especially considering the price paid, we were happy with the staff at the time of checkin, while for checkout we opted for the "express" option, without having to go through the reception.

Last tip: it is forbidden to touch the minibar, it has sensors that detect the movement of what is contained in it.
