While I normally like to explore hotels - I have made this AKA my "go to" hotel in London. The staff are absolutely dedicated and lovely - the rooms are always scrupulously clean with the hotel has great WiFi. The hotel couldn't be better positioned with ready access to Selfridges, the food of Marylebone and the Marylebone High Street - but also steps away from Oxford Street and Mayfair. Of particular note is its proximity to Bond Street station and the Elizabeth Line - which makes it easy to get to and from Heathrow and the City. I like the modern design of the rooms and the clean lines - making it a comfortable modern apartment. Having a kitchen and washer-dryer in the room is also a key feature that makes longer stays infinitely easier. The hotel is on Bentinck Street, which is about a block or so back from some of the main streets - making it incredibly close to everything you'd want, but also extremely quiet. For longer stays - the AKA offers great value for money that makes it feel like a home away from home. I've now stayed here many times and I have no intention of changing.

We stayed here for ca. 4 nights and loved it. It’s very central and close to the tube stations. You also have easy access to the big shopping streets: Oxford street and co. The selfridge is also basically just a 5 minute walk away. Loved it here.

The apartment was not as clean as it should be. It was clearly worn out and unused. The balcony was like a spider's web, indicating disuse and lack of cleanliness.

We made #7 our London home for three weeks. The location is perfect: close to great shops, food and music. The place was well furnished, comfortable, clean and quiet. The staff team are amazing. I highly recommend AKA Marylebone and will return.

Very nice accommodations in a great location. Most importantly, the GM (Shellie-Ann) and her team are absolutely great! Everyone was very friendly, helpful and attentive. The only negative was construction noise from next door, which started early in the morning. Despite this, I would definitely stay there again!

I can't say enough about both the accomodation and service at AKA Marylebone. It's difficult to find a (relatively) affordable place for 3 travelers where you're not bumping into each other and the 1 BR (with a cot) had a really nice amount of space. The 2nd room with living room/kitchentte/dining area was a wonderful bonus space (I put the cot there, but it would fit in the bedroom too, no problem). Everything was clean and outritted beautifully. And the front desk staff was AMAZING from booking through check-out - helpful, courteous and solicitous. Marylebone was a pretty, fun, central area to stay in. We had a great trip. Definitely recommend!

I stayed here for 9 months and loved every minute of it. Karen and her team (Mario, Minos and Junaid to name a few) were just brilliant. Karen made the process of moving in so smooth and effortless. She bought groceries and made me feel so comfortable from day 1. The cleaning staff were also exceptional: I cooked nearly everyday and they managed to clean the dishes, wash the sheets, vacuum and mop everyday (and it was always spotless). I have no idea how you managed to do that every single day! I felt very safe in the building and the free newspapers at the front were always a nice touch. Having reception available 24/7 was so helpful - they helped print documents, collect deliveries and open the door for me every time I forgot my key! Having a nice smiling face greet me each morning I came downstairs and each night when I returned was so wonderful. I had just moved to London and Karen and her team made my move so easy - they explained where the nearest supermarket was, nearest dry cleaners etc. An added perk is the free access to the gym (Third Space) - I went daily. It is a short 1 min walk from AKA. They have a pool and steam room too. I highly recommend AKA. It was simply a dream to stay there - that’s why I stayed for so long!

The AKA Staff could not have been more helpful, communicative and responsive during our stay. Shellie-Ann and her team went above and beyond to ensure our room was ready with any deliveries, groceries or rentals for the week that we were there. They made our stay seamless from start to finish; I could not recommend this hotel or the lovely people working here more!!
