Could be better

Large room, small bathroom, dust on top of and behind cabinets, cobwebs in the corners, panel loose hiding the bathroom pipe work, hole in wall under dressing table, some marks on the bedding, noise coming from room above squeaking floor boards and not very noise absorbing, area located in was brilliant for getting to the underground and sights

Ok stay for one or two nights

Ok for a short stay but hotel is very tired and things need replacing and painting. No mattress protector on the bed, no hand towel, no shower mat. Funny smell in the bathroom probably the drains. Location great, ten min walk from Victoria.

Bare Bones

The Carlton is a bare bones hotel, meaning no frills. It provides a fan, electric tea kettle, TV. Internet is an extra charge. There is no refrigerator or microwave. There were too many beds in the room, leaving very little space to move around. It was clean. The bathroom was a wet bath where everything gets wet when showering.

Not so great a stay

This hotel is not for comfort, if you are just looking for somewhere for the night that offers you closeness to Victoria station for the night, then it's fine but for long term, it doesn't work. They charge so much to give you so little. Outdated deco, television so tiny and old you can barely see a thing. Not family friendly at all. You have to pay to use the internet after paying more than £100 pr night.

Disliked: Amenities
Good location, in the heart of London. Local amenities and transport are excellent. Hotel itself is not well maintained. Broken light, leaky shower, damaged walls and doors. £100/night room was absolutely tiny. I could reach either side with a single step forward. Bathroom was... functionally okay, but again very cramped. Toilet is basically in the shower. No AC so very hot in summer. No window lock, despite being 2nd floor, I'd expect one in central London. Staff were nice enough, a little ignorant and head down in their phones but polite when needed.
