The hotel features a rooftop garden, bar, and restaurant offering panoramic views of London's skyline, serving cocktails and meals daily. Located behind Leicester Square, the hotel is within a five-minute walk of Leicester Square and Charing Cross underground stations, as well as landmarks like Piccadilly Circus and Covent Garden. Rooms include fast, free Wi-Fi and Egyptian cotton sheets. The rooftop bar, Garden Room, operates daily with pre-theatre menus and weekend brunch options. Assembly Hotel Leicester Square is part of Criterion Hospitality, with four properties in London's West End.

Pros

The rooftop garden and bar provide unobstructed views of London's skyline.

Soundproofed rooms ensure minimal disturbance from the bustling Leicester Square area.

Proximity to major attractions like Piccadilly Circus and Covent Garden, all within a five-minute walk.

Fast, free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property.

The hotel offers Superior Double rooms without windows for guests prioritizing uninterrupted sleep.

Cons

Some rooms lack windows, which may not suit guests preferring natural light.

The central location means the surrounding area can be crowded, especially during events.

“In the heart of tourist London, this place surprised me with its efficient check-in and clean, modern rooms; the rooftop bar alone makes it worth considering. I think its location near Leicester Square is unbeatable, especially given the quiet rooms and exceptional city views from higher floors.”
