To all MSE

As many people are aware you are able to pick up great deals through lastminute.com and their 'secret hotels' scheme. However, there is currently no comprihensive list of "Top Secret Hotels REVEALED" - which is what this thread will aim to do!

Step 1: How to uncover top secret hotels

If you're not sure how top secret hotels work and how to uncover them see the Top Secret Hotels Revealed explanation in the main MSE hotels guide.

Now lets collate the London hotels

Please note this thread should only be for LONDON hotels only.

What we want on this thread is hotels which have been booked through lastminute.com as a 'secret hotel' and the CONFIRMED hotel name and address (Please acompany with hotel description).

TO CLARIFY:

We want 100% confirmed info i.e. you have actually booked the secret hotel.
This will hopefully be a comprihensive list which will REVEAL the secrets! :j

On the post you should include:

- The title used for the secret hotel
- The hotel name REVEALED

NO-NO's:

We do not want speculative hotel presumptions nor do we want requests.

I will start...

    If you enter the details of any of the Top Secret Hotels into Google, they tend to come up with the answer.

    Yes that may be the case on some occasions but not ALL of them.

    Thus this thread will aim to do 2 main things:

    1) Produce 1 comprehensive list of 'Top Secret Hotel REVEALED'
    2) Save time Googeling and trying to work out which hotel you are booking

    This will mean your 'top secret hotel' will be 100% accurate - "NO SECRETS".

    If you sort the list into "closest to ....." then the top secret hotels will appear right underneath the actual hotel that it is... just double check the distance in the top right hand corner of each hotel window! :j

    Room was rediculously small; I had booked a delux double and recieved a tiny room with a tiny queen bed, one tiny wardrobe which barely fitted my things and you had to climb over the bed to get to the desk. No room service, movies or radio which are basics at every other 4* hotel. Bad service from staff.
