Small hotel in funky neighborhood. Close to train. No front door key (buzz staff to be let in. Surly bloke in office seemed to resent having to answer and fling open the door with attitude - simple solution: give guests a key). Small basic room at top of steep narrow staircase, no lift. Older furniture, no A/C, fridge, luggage racks, milk, or water. Shower area and water stream barley large enough to be usable. Water temp idiosyncratic. Would I stay here again? No.

Would stay again for future trips

Stayed here for a visit to theatre on strand and good walking distance to this and many other central locations including british museum and Euston station. Great place to eat about 100 yards down the street with amazing value and quality. Staff within hotel were helpful with filling water, advising where to go, assistance with check in, and we awere able to leave luggage before check in tome and afterncheck out to avoid taking around with us. Although some decor is a little dated as they make clear, room was spacious enough, warm and clean with fan provided in very hot period. Separate bathroom down stairs with no lift but if this isnt a problem then it is a decent size with generous shower, tea and coffee downstairs is good and on a quiet street

Best Option

We chose the hotel last minute, due to a bad experience with the previous one. But the reality is that it was the best choice, the place has a great location, the room is comfortable and quiet, the staff is 24 hours and very friendly. The lounge always has tea or coffee and is spacious. The only thing to consider is maybe a little that there is no elevator, but we had no problem with our small suitcases. The hotel provides recommendations which we used for breakfast and it was a good choice as well, it is close to bus stops, subway and main train station. It made our stay in London very enjoyable, we will definitely come back.

Disliked: Amenities
It’s an old building with no air conditioning. If I was staying here with just by myself or with my husband it’s fine. The room was very tiny with a double bed and a twin bunk bed. With 4 people in there (2 adults, 2 teens) it was so very hot. Can’t open a window more than 2”. Fan going but with one outlet near the door it never cooled the room down. Also a tiny tv up in the corner that my husband got working. We booked thru Expedia and added on a night after with the hotel. The difference of that was £70. I asked for the Expedia rate that I got and was told the rates depend on the night. I paid so we could get into our room. I have asked for a refund of that as it’s ridiculous to pay that. Oh and our shower never drained so that was less pleasant as well. So with not one night good sleep and charged that extra amount was not great. The bedding and room was clean. Also being a family with luggage and no lift was tricky carrying suitcases up a flight of stairs. So we were thankful we were up only one floor. The only thing nice was the location is walkable to where you want to be in London. And we felt safe in the neighbourhood.

Very disappointing

I rarely take the time to write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience with St. Athans Hotel because our stay was truly disappointing. The room was musty, uncomfortably hot, and had no air conditioning. We had to leave the window open, but there were no screens, which led to us getting bitten by gnats at night. They provided us with a fan, but it was broken. When I asked for a replacement, the front desk staff told me they didn’t have any more and that I’d have to wait until another guest checked out. The sink in the room was tiny and clogged—after about three seconds of use, it would start to overflow. After five nights, I asked for fresh towels and toilet paper. The front desk attendant told me I’d have to wait until the towels were washed to get any clean ones. He said he’d bring up toilet paper, but never did, so I ended up buying some myself. The next morning, I asked another staff member for towels and was only given two, even though there were three of us in the room. The only positive I can mention is the location—it’s convenient. Beyond that, the hotel is poorly managed and uncomfortable. I strongly advise against booking here. And if you do, avoid Room #14—it appeared to be a converted storage room with beds thrown in.
