    This did help massively, I have just booked and got the Doubletree Hilton Tower Bridge for £89.10 (also had a 10% for lastminute). The weird thing is, I had earlier today Googled the description 'Stunning stylish hotel with world renowned bar' but it didn't come up. I only found this post by chance when I was trying to find out what another description was.
    Hi do you know if this is still on there ? I looked but couldn't see it. I have had trouble finding the names of the hotels, my searches bring up not a lot really, any help is appreciated, thanks. Also you mentioned a 10% last minute discount can anybody use this ?

    Hi, I read this thread before being successful at booking the Park Plaza Westminster bridge hotel back in March, so thank you so much for all the information!

    But! They have changed the title on the secret search and it is no longer under it's old title. Can anyone either let me know if they have been successful in a recent booking, or confirm if this title is correct as I suspect it may be. Thanks again.

    Hi all, might book this tomorrow, but never been on last minute before. I just hope this doesn't sound too good to be true as the price is very low. If anyone can tell me what the hotel is before I finally book it, it will be appreciated.

    This hotel offers luxury facilities and great views over London for all travellers. Dining in the hotel's restaurant is a great experience, enjoy local and international dishes with exceptional service. All guests enjoy complimentary use of the swimming pool, gym, steam room and sauna. Its 1.8 mile from big ben, 2 mile from the west end and 2.9 mile from oxford circus.

    Once again, many thanks

    I am led to believe that this was the grange city hotel, and I went direct to it's website, and actually got it slightly cheaper with breakfast included.

    Reviews are somewhat mixed at times on trip advisor, but I expect that with everywhere

    Hi gang, I was just looking for a secret hotel myself then realised something.

    If you search for hotels in London for specific dates and then in the drop down box select distance from "kings cross" for example, and include the secret hotels in this search, when you find a secret hotel in the list, note the price it should have been, this is the price lastminute charge when the hotel is not secret i.e full price, around this secret hotel listing look for a named hotel which is this price and that is the hotel.

    based on this theory I found that "Fabulous Spa Hotel near Covent Garden 5*" was the Grange Holburn

    Luxury in the heart of London West End 5* is the Langham, the full price for the hotel was listed as £720 discounted to £338, lastminute were charging £720 for the named hotel. I can confirm this hotel as we just booked it.

    Exclusive Hotel in Mayfair 5* is Brown's Hotel

    Top West End Hotel 5* is The Athenaeum

    and so on, so far I have managed to guess 11 of the secret hotels using this method but could do more, I haven't deduced the hotels which lastminute don't sell rooms for at full price but this is a start

    Hope this helps!!
