Over night theatre trip.

Stayed here as a quick overnight stay with my daughter as we were visiting the theatre. The hotel is in an excellent location, just a 10 to 15 minute walk at most from London Euston. Then only a 15-20 minute walk further to Drury Lane which was perfect for us. We had a twin room, the beds were comfortable and it was spotlessly clean. We did not have breakfast as we had to catch an early train in the morning but the hotel does have a small shop and there were several small shops nearby. Unfortunately, we both struggled to sleep at all. Our room was uncomfortably hot and as a result the window had been left open for us, which made the room very noisy with outside noise and staff putting glass bottles/ rubbish out until late into the night. The people in the room near us were also very noisy until the early hours, although this was no fault of the hotels but not ideal when you have to be up at 5am.

Convenient

Good location on Russell Square, walking distance from Kings Cross Station. And a stone's throw from the British Museum. "Snug" room i.e. small. Comedy squeak from the bathroom door (just needs some WD40). Very convenient to where I was working. Would stay again.

Decent hotel is in, a good location.

Good location and friendly staff. Bed was a bit wobbly and uncomfortable. We couldn't get the hairdryer to work in the bathroom electric outlet. Close to subway station, restaurants and points of interest.

Lovely Stay and Great Location

Our stay was amazing! Stayed 6 nights and the room was clean, spacious enough, and comfortable. The location is great! Right by a beautiful park, minutes from the British Museum, and just about a 20-30 minute walk into Covent Garden, Soho, and Piccadilly. It is also a couple of minutes walk to the Piccadilly tube, a 15-minute walk to Kings Cross station, and you can get to any bus stop and other tube lines in less than 20 minutes. There are pubs nearby, coffee shops, and restaurants. The staff was friendly and helpful, making the stay easy. My one complaint is that the Wi-Fi service is not the best, so if you have out-of-country service, getting a connection might be rough. But overall, a great place to stay, and I will definitely be staying here the next time I'm in London!

Nice hotel in great location

This was a nice hotel. I enjoyed the room, the breakfast, and the Atrium restaurant. The little shop near the front desk was convenient too. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Great staff. A couple of minutes away from a tube stop. Clean rooms. Close to a Tesco for snacks. 10 minutes walk to the British Museum. We were stranded in London due to the Heathrow shut down for 4 extra days. We knew we would rebook at the President Hotel.

The President Hotel is located right beside Russell Square, about 2 minutes walk from the tube station. There are a few really good cafes and restaurants nearby, as well as a small supermarket. The hotel itself is fine - clean, safe and comfortable. The rooms themselves are pretty tiny (I was in a single room) but do the job. The hotel could be doing with some more in the way of social space, as there are really just a few seats in the restaurant. My room was on floor 7, which only had one lift, which reminded me of times long gone (super slow with a concertina metal door). :)

Very good stay.

The walls had some damage. The windows and walls needed more soundproofing. Fitted sheets instead of flat sheets would be greatly appreciated, they kept bunching and wrinkling since they were flat. More amenities would have been nice too but the overall location and accommodation was very good. We will stay there again and recommend it to others. The water refill dispenser was appreciated.
