Assembly Leicester Square - A Contemporary Urban Hotel with Rooftop Garden and City Views

Located in the heart of Westminster Borough behind Leicester Square, this 3-star London hotel features 139 soundproofed rooms equipped with air conditioning, walk-in power showers, and free Wi-Fi. The Assembly Leicester Square provides guest accommodations in three room categories: Superior Double (no windows), Deluxe Double (140 ft^2), and Suites (172 ft^2 with sofa bed). The Garden Room rooftop restaurant and bar on the 10th floor serves daily lunch, dinner, and weekend brunches while offering panoramic views of London's skyline. The property operates from 4 PM to 11 PM on weekdays and 12 PM to midnight on weekends. Guest rooms feature Egyptian cotton sheets, temperature control systems, and modern storage solutions. The hotel stands within a 5-minute walk of both Leicester Square and Charing Cross underground stations, and less than 2 minutes from Trafalgar Square.

Pros

Direct access to West End theaters, international film premieres, and entertainment venues

Urban garden with fountain and Shakespeare statue directly behind the hotel

Soundproofed rooms ensure quiet rest despite central location

Rooftop venue offers unobstructed views across central London

Cons

Superior rooms have no windows

Limited operating hours at the rooftop venue

“In the heart of theatreland, the location places you steps from Leicester and Trafalgar Squares. I noticed the rooftop garden bar - the skyline views seem unmatched for the price. Rooms are modern, tech-forward, and soundproofed: essential given the central location.”

Underwhelming Stay Near Leicester Square

missing tvno coffee
The absence of a TV in the room was a surprise. I also found that there were no tea or coffee facilities available. It seems a bit much to expect guests to go without basic comforts. These omissions.
