Perfect location with easy access to so much of London as it is close to tube and train. Disinterested staff at check-in and when asked other questions. Perhaps because I booked via Expedia? Food in restaurant was some of worst ever experienced: eat off site. Good news though because there are so many excellent places to eat around the hotel.

Looks bad outside and inside isn’t much better.

I know London is expensive, but…! paid £167 for a superior twin room and all I can say is thank god I didn’t get the basic room. It smelled of drains, the sink was cracked and I waited until I got home for a shower as it just felt grubby . And the price didn’t include breakfast.

Average, basic and dated.

Asked for an earlier check in (30 mins) which could not be accommodated, had a long wait at reception when we later collected the room key. Room was very basic (no headboard etc) room very hot and dark. Average hotel, dated and basic.

Very convenient location to the West End, British Museum, Covent Garden, and Picadilly Circus. The rooms are a bit dated, but decent. We were in London during a heat wave; sadly, the hotel room does not have AC, only a fan. Other than that, this hotel is a good choice where you’re close enough to London’s big attractions, but away from the crowds.

The room was exceptionally small with a twin bed. The TV did not work, the lamps didn’t work, and the AC shut off every 45 minutes. The hotel is also under construction which was not advertised so the noise level was very loud. On top of that you could hear everything in the room above, next door, and everything outside. The staff was friendly and the shower was nice but overall I could not sleep at all because of the noise and the heat. Quite disappointing.

We got rooms without airco's and were told by the receptionist that it was stated on their website which is not the case. We did get other rooms with airco's with the help of the manager but had to pay extra. The construction noise was supposed to start at 9/ 10 in the morning but it started much earlier so it was hard to sleep in.

Central London Location

Very Central London Location, Great for shopping in Oxford Street and Very Handy for British Museum. Checked in with no issues, but Lifts can be demanding, as far too many rooms for the amount of Lifts and one was out of Order for the duration of our stay. So waited for about 5 Lifts as we were on 5th floor and they were full going down on check out with Luggage. No Air Con, so very uncomfortable during London Heatwave.
