“Prince Akatoki's Japanese touches, damp edges”
The Prince Akatoki London is a small wa-modern hotel — quiet well-located rooms, an amazing post-sightseeing bathtub, a spacious double-sink bathroom, welcome drinks, minibar, yukata, iron, slippers, wooden toothbrush and comb, and genuinely good Japanese-speaking service. Two sharp dissents: one guest calls it not-really five-star — a molding bathroom, tiny lightless windows, a dark musty room, scuffed entrance and lifts giving run-down vibes — while another reports a basement-floor assignment they suspected of discrimination (the desk insisted the rate was equal and had not read their emailed high-floor request), plus a bad Japanese restaurant whose toro sushi contained sinew. Housekeeping forgot body-wash refills for three days.
