Beds were very comfy & the shower/bathroom excellent & modern. However the room had an underlying smell of body odour & the carpet looked old & didn’t match the modern feel of the rest of it

Staff, as always, were fantastic. We arrived 2 hours early and were offered an early check in immediately. Thus was most welcome as we'd been up from 430am.

We had a really lovely stay at the President hotel. All the staff was super helpful. Our room was clean and comfortable and the hotel is close to so much. We walked or took the underground from the nearby stop and never had a problem. Highly recommend.

Chaotic check in, very small double room for the money, no drawer space in the room. Breakfast poor selection with cold plates and a number of empty food trays for a long period meaning other food on the plate going cold.
