Won’t be staying again

The hotel does not offer AC which is stated on the website but I didn’t expect the room to be an inferno. The heat kept us awake all night!! The rooms above us were so noisy you can hear every footstep sounds like the ceiling is going to cave in. The double beds are more like a large single.

Clean modern room. Nice touch with bottle of wine. Pleasant staff. Fan provided but not powerful enough for heatwave night! Informed them I'd arrive very late but when I arrived the concierge had gone and a phone number was left. Phone was dead so couldn't contact! Went next door to lovely owner of Avon more hotel who helped out. Apparently many tourists without UK SIM have problems calling the concierge too. Turned out he was in the basement all along - suggest a direct link to his room in future, or a video doorbell app!

Overall, this was a good hotel. My friends and I stayed in the top floor of this small hotel for our trip to London. Highlights are easy access to the metro station and neighborhood feels very safe and walkable. Really our only complaint is that there was occasionally the smell of sewage coming from the bathroom. The rooms and bathroom were kept clean, but the smell was noticeable (only at certain times and unrelated to our usage of the bathroom). Overall, this hotel met our expectations. Clean, comfortable and convenient!

The Mentone Hotel has a beautiful aesthetic. I stayed a single room and it had everything I needed! One gripe, the TV was not working, I came to London to study at RADA and spend my evenings dining and exploring, so this wasn't an issue, however I like to have the TV on in the background whilst working on my laptop or getting ready. Aside from that small issue, the location is excellent, walking distance to major areas of London. A short five minute walk takes you to London Underground, the area is beautiful being a grade two listed building, unfortunately no air conditioning as stated by Mentone Hotel due to the heritage of the building, but this wasn't an issue for me in room three. I'd happily stay here again, I didn't try the breakfast as I had food to go as I was studying early morning. 4.5 out 5, I would highly recommend and I plan to stay here next year during my next course at RADA.

Narrow stairs

Room was on the third floor, no elevator and stairs were very narrow from 2nd floor to the 3rd floor. For that reason wouldn’t stay here again.

A very convenient location, close to Euston and Kings cross stations. Very friendly helpful staff. Clean and comfortable room with TV and Tea/coffee making facility. Good breakfast with plenty of options to choose from. Quiet location within easy walking distance of many London attractions with a tube station nearby.

The only complaint we would have that it was noisy at breakfast and it was noisy from the room above us at night. The noise above us was creaking floor boards. I think the size of restaurant is to small for the size of hotel.

Perfect location! Multiple train lines near by which made getting around the city super easy. Come prepared to hear everything your neighbors do from walking around, opening doors, flushing the toilet, taking showers, etc. (this may be typical in Londons older buildings so just bring ear plugs!) the hotel only gave one medium towel per person (no hand towels), which I know this is not uncommon in smaller hotels. However, when my mom requested an extra towel she was addressed with hostility and refusal. Direct quote from staff: “this isn’t America”. Which is a terrible argument considering we are visiting the UK…the homeland of the Founding Fathers…the root of the US heritage and language…anyways… Eventually, I went back to ask again later that night (unfortunately the same staff was at the front desk) and again was given the same response and hostility. After enough push I finally received an extra towel. Having one towel really isn’t that big of deal but the staffs responses was very rude and unprofessional. Other than that, great hotel :)

Fab hotel

Amazing value hotel, in really a great location. Decor and rooms were very modern and clean. We were given a triple room when we only paid for a double, so very spacious. No air con or lift but that was fine for us as it wasn't hot and we're fine with stairs. We were on the top floor, other doors next to us were very loud when opening and closing but that was probably the only negative. Nice lounge area to sit if needed. We didn't try the breakfast. Free wifi abd checkout at 11. Situated in a pleasant area, overlooking tennis courts, only a 10 minute walk to St Pancras/Kings cross or Euston. Would definitely recommend and return as its so centrally located for a great price.
