The Resident Covent Garden

The Resident Covent Garden has 57 contemporary rooms near the West End, each with a concealed mini-kitchen. It suits independent travellers who value location and in-room practicality. There is no on-site restaurant, so the service model is lighter than at a full-service hotel.
