The perfect place for the traveler who wants NO amenities, hot water or soap. If you are looking for a cheerless, dingy and stained room without any redeeming qualities, this is your place! Uncomfortable beds, stuffy and plently of street noise rounds out your experience at the Gresham Hotel!

The room was disgusting and stunk of urine. The curtain was just a poorly hung sheet across the window. The floor was dirty and the lights didn’t work. Booked an en suite - the shower was approx 1 square foot and was connected to the toilet

It’s a cheap room in central London within walking distance to all the landmarks. You pay 4 times the price everywhere else. If it’s somewhere to just sleep you’ve chose the right place x

Very budget hotel but excellent location and good value for money. Yes hotel is dated and very minimal but it felt pretty clean, friendly staff and had everything we needed. For the price this was very good value. Showers were super basic, mattress very old and dated but overall we had an okay stay.

Worst hotel room ever. Leakages on the ceiling. One towel. Creaky, uneven bed covered with thin mattress so you can feel metal springs. Dirty window stays open with toilet paper roll holding it. Shared one toilet and 2 showers for like 10 rooms, no shower gel or shampoo. Less light from the lamp in the room than from candle. Big plus - no bedbugs so far!!! Make your experience unforgettable, go for it!
