Robert

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
This was one of the most TERRIBLE, AWFUL, HORRENDOUS experiences I have ever had at a hotel, and I have been traveling around the world for decades. When we checked in, we were told they didn't take American Express, which was not clear when I made the reservation. I offered to pay in cash, and they said they didn't accept cash. The management was extremely rigid and unaccommodating. We tried to work with them, and they just kept saying, This is our policy, we can't do that. They made no attempt to work with us or try to help us. I was finally able to pay the hotel bill, but it required me to become overdrawn from my bank account by thousands of dollars. The management of this hotel has the philosophy that they are always right and the customer is always wrong. They never apologize and never compromise. They run the hotel like the government of the former Soviet Union. Another thing that went wrong was that they put us in rooms that faced a courtyard with an outdoor pub. It was extremely noisy at night, past midnight. One night, there was loud carousing from people that went well past 2:30am. The hotel allowed this and did not intervene to stop the noise. They did change our rooms the next day. The worst aspect of this hotel is that they it's all about their policies and not about the needs of the customers. This hotel does NOT deserve the rating of 4 stars and excellent.

Really great location for national museum

Stayed here during our trip to london! We have tried many areas before and we loved this one. Very close to the British national museum! 15 minute walk to Piccadilly, Leicester Square, fabulous park nearby. Close access to russel square tube! 15 minute walk to King’s Cross. We were very impressed with location. Check in was quick and simple. Room was very clean. Had ironing board and iron, nice toiletries. No complimentary water though! Hairdryer was terrible so pack your own! Lots of options for breakfast. Food was really good. Staff exceptionally friendly. We drank in the pub “the London pub” directly across from the entrance and it was lovely. Would recommend.

Great hotel. Unbeatable location and great facilities. Rooms were nice size and modern looking. Our room was facing the entrance and it was a bit noisy at night - street noise.

The breakfast was indeed great. It was, however, the same options each day. For a stay of 11 plus days, the same meals each morning became very boring. Great breakfast nonetheless. The bed sheets were not thoroughly clean. There was evidence of hair on the sheets. Dare I say it did not look like hair from the head but from other parts of the body. The room was also cold. I do believe that the closed window does not provide an adequate seal from the outside low temperatures. Overall, it is a decent hotel if you are looking at price.

Enjoyable trip staying at the hotel as a party of 2, incredibly friendly staff and clean property. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast which included a range of both continental and cooked breakfast foods. The location of the hotel is excellent, 10minutes walk from Euston Train Station and 5minutes walk to the nearest Tube Station which is well connected on the Piccadilly line - all major tourist hotspots.
