are there many hotels in central London that don't use keycards for the lifts. I spoke to a SP in Cambridge who says she wants to make a tour to central london but is not sure what hotel would be good to use. maybe there's an SP equivalent of ukpunting that can give advice on this
I would advice her to start with the St Giles hotel. It's 3 star, so not really expensive, no key cards for lifts. It's large with about 700 rooms, bar and cafe, rather anonymous and very busy.
It's as central as you can get, at the intersection of Oxford Street, Tottenham Court Road, Charring Cross Road.
Tottenham Court Road Tube Station is a few yards away.
If you need help finding it, it's almost next door to the Dominion Theatre.
Late check in and late check out is fine, but arrange first, and there is an extra charge.
It's popular with SPs/Massage Burds/Punters...
