Mint Westminster strongly on the rise.
Mint Hotel Westminster (previously called City Inn) has risen to the top 10 London hotels on TripAdvisor and putting more expensive hotels to shame
In the competitive arena of London hotels, establishments frequently fall in and out of favour. One current rising star is Mint Hotel Westminster which came to our attention in our shortlist of London’s best free WiFi hotels.
It is part of the Mint chain which has grown exponentially since being established fifteen years ago. The company’s contemporary styling and modern buildings were specifically designed with the business traveller in mind and the Mint Westminster is no exception to this ethos.
But it also scores highly with tourists, who appreciate the hotel’s modernity and great amenities which are all delivered at reasonable prices.
