“Waterloo's ruby lucy”

Close to Waterloo Station and the South Bank, Ruby Lucy Hotel London by IHG is a handy enough stay: helpful staff, clean-enough rooms, good service, a good bar and a heart-of-London base for theatres and markets. Dissents though: a severe platform-side complaint over a delayed cancellation email that forced the original stay — aimed at the booking channel — and an odd tatami-style bed design for one.
