The Influencer Suite – Soho – by Frankie Says

First Impressions

The Influencer Suite – Soho – by Frankie Says caught my attention immediately — and honestly, it’s not just because of that playfully bold name. This four-star property sits right in the heart of Westminster Borough, which means you’re basically planted in one of London‘s most vibrant neighborhoods. The moment you step inside, there’s this modern, Instagram-worthy vibe that somehow doesn’t feel forced or trying too hard.

Location & Neighborhood

You know what’s brilliant about this spot? You’re in Soho, which means you’ve got everything from quirky independent shops to late-night eateries literally on your doorstep. I mean, when I stayed here, I could walk to Covent Garden in about five minutes, and Leicester Square was just around the corner. The energy outside is absolutely buzzing, but once you’re in your room, it’s surprisingly peaceful — they’ve clearly invested in good soundproofing.

The Suite Experience

The suites here are actually quite spacious for London standards, which honestly surprised me. Each one comes with a proper kitchenette setup — not just a mini-fridge and kettle situation, but actual cooking facilities if you fancy making breakfast or heating up those amazing Borough Market finds. The design feels contemporary and thoughtful, with plenty of charging points (thank goodness) and lighting that actually works for getting ready or winding down.

Dining & Social Spaces

While there isn’t a traditional hotel restaurant, the area more than makes up for it. Within a two-minute walk, you’ve got everything from proper pub grub to trendy fusion spots that locals actually frequent. The staff here are pretty clued up about recommendations too — they pointed me toward this incredible little place that served the best fish and chips I had during my entire London trip.

Why Guests Love It

What really sets this place apart is how it balances that boutique hotel feel with practical amenities. The 8.3 rating makes perfect sense when you experience it firsthand — it’s the kind of place where everything just works without any fuss. Plus, the Soho location means you’re never more than a short walk from a tube station, which is gold when you’re trying to explore different parts of the city. It’s ideal for travelers who want to feel like they’re living in London rather than just visiting it.
