Our second stay here at the Velvet Hotel just as good as the first. Attentive staff lovely clean room everything you need for a comfy stay. We had the continental breakfast delivered to our room this time . Handed to us on a lovely tray on time pastries granola fruit and breakfast bar with an orange juice was just what we needed. See you again same time next year for our annual visit to the Palace.

Fabulous
Our stay at The Velvet Hotel was lovely from the moment we arrived to the time we left. Check in was really quick and efficient and being given a glass of Rosé Prosecco to drink while we were checking in was a really nice touch. Our room was lovely. Spotlessly clean, well equipped and really comfortable. My only observation would be that because we were on a low floor the noise from Canal Street below was quite noticeable when we got back to our room after being out for the night. This wasn’t an issue for us, but light sleepers may want to ask for a higher floor or bring ear plugs with them.
