  Great location if staying in Central London, rooms are well fitted out with a well stocked bar and usual amenities. My third visit here and I find the staff are always polite and helpful.

  Really disappointed in my experience at the Athenaeum, not good enough to truly consider it a 5 star hotel. Public spaces were nice, and recently redone. Bedrooms were a bit more dated, and some of the trendy lighting technology has stopped working, but overall the rooms were fine and bed comfy enough. Bathroom feels like it is well over twenty years old though - in an "aged badly" way rather than a "classic look" way. Toilet and tub were cheap, worn and ugly. Shower fitting was a botched job, that nobody should have signed off on. Mould on silicone in bath. And the toilet cistern was the slowest and noisiest I've ever experienced - it took 5 minutes to refill, seriously, I timed it. The tiny gym wasn't much better, two out of five machines were broken, peeling paint and wallpaper on the walls and discarded tissues left lying around. Overall it was just a lack of attention to detail, which is what sets a real 5 star hotel apart from the rest. In a 3 or even 4 star hotel these things wouldn't matter so much. But if you claim 5 stars you set an expectation you have to live up to, and the Athenaeum failed to do that.

  I went for a spa treatment at the Athenaeum which included use of the hot tubs, sauna and steam room. I had an amazing massage and facial which was very relaxing, and I am usually rather ticklish with massages but my masseuse was excellent and did not set me off. My facial was also very relaxing and my skin feels great now.
