A strikingly modern, eight-storey hotel, fashioned out of what was the Pavilion cinema overlooking Shepherds Bush Green. The W12 location means you get four-star quality at very reasonable rates in 317 rooms that have contemporary, Chinese-influenced decor, and masses of mod-cons, including free wifi. As well as a small spa and a gym, there’s a restaurant and a cocktail bar. Westfield shopping centre is close by, offering many more dining options as well as myriad shopping opportunities.
