Best Western Corona Hotel Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Best Western Corona Hotel on Belgrave Road, you’ll notice it’s one of those classic Victorian terraced buildings that just feels quintessentially London. The three-star property doesn’t try to be something it’s not — and honestly, that’s refreshing. It sits comfortably among the white-painted Georgian facades that make this part of Westminster so photogenic, though you might walk past it if you’re not paying attention.

Location That Actually Works

Here’s the thing about staying near Victoria — you’re basically in the sweet spot for getting anywhere in London without the tourist chaos of Covent Garden or the expense of Mayfair. Pimlico Underground station is literally around the corner (I mean, you can see it from the hotel), and from there you’re three stops from Westminster and four from Green Park. The couples who rate this location so highly aren’t wrong — there’s something romantic about wandering these quieter streets in the evening, plus you’ve got easy access to the Thames Path when you want a proper walk.

The Room Experience

The rooms here are what I’d call “efficiently British” — not huge, but thoughtfully laid out so you don’t feel cramped. Each room has that slightly old-school charm with modern touches where they matter most (decent Wi-Fi, updated bathrooms, proper heating). The windows are double-glazed, which you’ll appreciate since Belgrave Road can get a bit busy during the day. Don’t expect premium finishes, but everything works well and the beds are actually comfortable — something that’s not always guaranteed at this price point in central London.

Morning Fuel

The full English breakfast they serve is proper comfort food — none of that continental nonsense when you’re gearing up for a day of walking around London. They do the Irish version too, which means you get black pudding and all the fixings. It’s served in a bright dining area that catches the morning light nicely, and the staff seem genuinely cheerful at 8 AM (which is saying something). You know what? Sometimes you just want a straightforward breakfast that fills you up without any fuss, and that’s exactly what you get here.

Why Guests Love It

This hotel works because it understands its role perfectly — it’s your comfortable base camp for exploring London, not a destination in itself. The location score of 8.9 tells the real story here; you’re close enough to walk to Victoria Station with luggage, near enough to Westminster that you can stroll to see Big Ben, but tucked away on a residential street that feels authentically London rather than touristy. The staff know the area well and can point you toward the good pubs (there’s a lovely one called The Plumbers Arms just a few streets over). For the price you’re paying in this part of town, you’re getting solid value and a genuinely useful location that’ll save you time and transport costs throughout your stay.
