Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests consistently praise the Prince Akatoki's beautiful, minimalist design and its convenient location near Marble Arch and Hyde Park. The spacious rooms, some of which are Deluxe type (302), feature comfortable bedding, and soft drinks are included. Some guests have found the standard double bed slightly small. However, many appreciate the on-site Japanese culinary experiences, such as the sushi masterclass with complimentary sparkling sake, and the availability of Japanese food for breakfast.
