The room was small and very basic, also quite well worn. The price was suspiciously cheap when I booked it as a central London hotel and my concerns were realised. But it was clean and I slept and I showered, so it only gets a disappointing...

We got rooms on the basement floor with fixed window that cannot be opened.it causes the Room to have bad smells. There is no curtain so sun enters the Room very early in the morning. There is a wooden floor up so you can hear every step ftom upper room and it is very annoying.

Gower House was very clean and the staff was very pleasant. The single room was cozy, perhaps too cozy given the ten by seven foot room. leaving little space to keep luggage, and no closet or drawer space to put anything away. The location is great, very close to transportation. My room was in the back which was very quiet.

An old property that could do with a bit of TLC. The basement room we were allocated is the smallest Hotel bedroom I've ever stayed in & quite claustrophobic luckily we only booked for 2 nights as the traffic noise is constant making it impossible to sleep. The Airport shuttle they profess to operate is a £70 Taxi ride at the Customers expense.

This small hotel is in a great location on Gower St. It is close to the British Museum and surrounded by Colleges and medical facilities. It is a safe area. The room was small, which was to be expected. The manager on duty was really pleasant. I would recommend this hotel

Weekend stay for business course

Stayed from Friday night 22nd February to Monday 26th. I needed an affordable single room to attend a weekend course near central London. The hotel is about 15 minutes walk from Euston Station with Goodge St. underground about five minutes away and a bus stop with a very frequent service across the road. British Museum very close. Late arrival wasn't a problem as there is 24 hrs check-in. The room was at the back of the hotel was small and basic but clean with a TV, tea/coffee facilities and free wifi. Sheets and blankets, not a duvet. The ensuite was small but the shower worked well and towels were changed every day. Slept well but not the quietest of stays - ambulances and some noise from other rooms. Continental breakfast from 7:30 with cereals, tinned fruit, orange juice, rolls, croissants and very good coffee. No evening meals but plenty of restaurants in nearby Tottenham Court Road and its side streets. Area felt very safe to walk around. Friendly staff and a bonus was that I could leave my luggage after checkout and collect it in the evening.

It was perfect for my stay. Quiet, comfortable and clean. What really made it great was the very friendly staff. They were a delight. Offered me a free upgrade which was nice. I'll stay again.

Could be better but reasonable for London

Gower Street is very busy and it would be better to have a room not on the street. The bed was tired and not over comfortable.
