When I visit London, I always like to mix things up and stay somewhere new. So when I had a chance on my recent trip to London to stay at Club Quarters Hotel St. Paul’s London, I was all for it. Why wouldn’t I want to stay in the City of London near some of the best sights like the Tate Modern and the Tower of London with a location steps from St. Paul’s Cathedral?



My Arrival At Club Quarters Hotel St. Paul’s London

After my transatlantic flight from Boston on British Air, all I really wanted to do is relax in a comfy bed in a clean and comfortable room. While some hotels promise you the moon, not every hotel can actually deliver. Could Club Quarters Hotel St. Paul’s London deliver a comfortable room and more in central London?

I arrived at the Club Quarters Hotel St. Paul’s London and was quickly helped by one staff member and also by San Myint, the Guest Service Manager. They were kind enough to put two of my three suitcases in storage along with my Amazon box containing my pillow, all extras I needed only for my cruise.

I was also introduced to the hotel manager, Massimo Varriale, who explained that the hotel was undergoing refurbishment at the moment. Expected to be completed in March, they were letting me stay in one of the sample rooms with the new design. Pretty cool right?

USB ports at bedside
  • USB ports at the bedside. Nothing says modern to me than knowing someone was thinking about my wanting to charge my phone at night. So thank you Club Quarters.

  • Free stuff that I actual want like free WiFi and free coffee, tea, snacks, and wine.

Fitness Center
  • Feel like working out? If you don’t feel like running outside, head to the fitness center. Most hotels squeeze a few treadmills and a few dumbbells inside a closet and call it a fitness center. This one was spacious and I definitely wouldn’t mind working out here.
