To be honest, you get what you pay for. This is the cheapest hotel in this area, the are is incredible, so overall good value for money. You get a bed, a toilet, and a towel, do not expect more and you’ll be fine.

This hotel is within walking distance of King's Cross Station (although not perfect if you have a heavy suitcase). There are places nearby for food including a McDonalds. There was a wash basin in the room but there looked to be broken glass or something between the edge of the wash basin and the wall which had not been cleared away. The receptionist was friendly.

It was a basic room yes but it was more like a prison furniture were horrible and dirty. The only one electrical socket, which was for the television was 6 foot off the ground not used to charge phones toilet in the hallway so small you couldn’t even sit down.

It’s a budget hotel. Don’t expect anything flashy here. It is a solid place and I will book here again. I travel for work and like to keep my expenditures low. The Gresham Annex was perfectly acceptable for the price.

Best value hotel in Central London

Could do with a lick of paint and a new shower head but otherwise good value for money 2 mins away from Tottenham Court Road/Central Line. Stayed end of August when it was cooler. No aircon so could be very hot if staying in height of summer. But no problems for us. Nice clean sheets, towels, good water pressure and hot water.

Old, dated, but good value still

Room was dated. In the basement. But spacious and with windows for sunlight. My only complaints are that there was only hot water tap was working so it was impossible to take shower. But overall given price and location I’m satisfied with my stay. Thank you

The hotel is in a very convenient location near Tottenham Court Road station with many shops. The room was quite hot in the night. Mattress could have been a bit comfier but there was sufficient space for a single bed as a budget hotel location. Check-in and check-out processes were quick and easy.

Overnighter in July

First of all this was cheap for a central London location. The shared bathroom and toilet wasn't a problem as that's what I booked. The TV didn't work as the aerial cable didn't have a plug on it. I didn't complain I wasn't there to watch TV on they said there was WiFi in some public areas but anywhere near me but I had a phone signal so email essentials were taken care of. The room was tired as was the whole building the mattress needs changing and it sags so much it effected the way I walked and there was a smell which I think was the carpet. But I say again it was cheap in central London in July. Also I had a plug socket to charge phones etc which is not guaranteed these days. The Staff were ok not rude but not good.

Great location 24 hour check in service - but the room was actually scary to stay in and was like being in a time warp I can’t believe in central London they still even exist but for £60 for all three of us I don’t consider that I can expect anything less. Also the man on the reception was really lovely just a very strange experience!!

Value room in the centre

Good basic room well positioned in central London. Not the most comfortable or clean but for a single room in central London for less than £50 it met my expectations and good value.
