Good but some things need fixing
Firstly the good bits. The staff were friendly on arrival and checkout. The beds were comfortable which the main thing you want in a hotel. The room had two bottles of complementary water and a nice selection of teas and coffees. We didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment on that. What let the hotel down was the upkeep of the room. The corners had a lot of cobwebs so those are missed during cleaning. The light above the mirror was coming away from the wall and didn’t work. The towel heating rack in the bathroom didn’t work so the towels felt cold and damp due to no heating. No blind cord so unable to pull the blind down over the window. The connector in the shower was leaking. If these simple things were fixed it would be a great place to stay.

Good for seeing the sights
Although the building is old, and parts of corridor had water-ingress damage, our room was immaculately clean and comfortable. Very convenient for getting around to the theatres and museums.

Overall a great stay, service and staff very helpful and accommodating. Room a little noisy at night and the bathroom blind very mouldy and the rims around the toilet not very clean . Breakfast selection great and tasty, however a little on the cold side. I would return and stay again as in great location. Thank you

London with the girls
Excellent service. There was a problem with our room when we arrived, so we were allocated another room immediately, they allowed us to check in early and gave us a complimentary breakfast the following day. Couldn’t ask for better service than that. Lovely complimentary chocolates too.

Fine
Very good location for the West End, the hotel is fine, a little tired and lacking simple touches (no mirror in the bedroom is pretty basic) but it’s good enough for most circumstances.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The staff were friendly at reception and in the breakfast room. Our room was small with little room to move around. Storage in the room was OK. The shower cubicle was very small. Breakfast was OK with several different options. It is worth noting that there is only one lift which is very small, it will only take two people with luggage at a squeeze. The location is good with lots of pubs and restaurants close by. The hotel is a short walk from Russell Square or Holburn tube stations

Wonderful. We couldn’t be happier.
Special thanks to Aisha for being so friendly. We were made to feel so welcome, it was such a special way to start our trip to London. Our room is lovely and comfortable and quiet, everything is spotlessly clean. Genuinely very happy and contented customers. Thank you ☺️ Ps. Give Aisha a bonus - she’s a star.
