Hotel room was very compact. Could do with refurbishing as wasn’t overly welcoming. Area was great and we could reach all our planned destinations by walking. Bar area was small and quiet. Breakfast was okay and value for money.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities

Dated and very small dark rooms. Couldn’t fully open the door as it hit the bed. Wardrobes all chipped and marked. Rights had to be on constantly as the room was that dark. Shower was broken. It is central and easy walk to both Holborn and Russell Square underground. But not worth the almost £500 for 2 nights.

Hotel in great location, clean, fresh, good facilities, nice helpful staff. Room a little small but adequate for our one night stay. Not much in the way of wardrobe/drawers, but adequate for a very short stay. Would return here again thank you to the staff

Reasonable hotel in a good location

Good stay. Hotel was very well located for what we needed. Just 5 mins from the tube and an easy walk to covent garden, west end etc. The bed was very small though, defintely did not feel like a full size double bed. We also appeared to only have one bath towel for the 2 of us, though we found another one hidden in a drawer but this was after we'd already showered. The hotel did feel a little tired/dated for the price, but overall it served the prupose we needed for one night in the capital. Staff were very friendly.

Superior king room

Wouldn't rate this as 4star. We had a superior king room, it was 2 single beds pushed together but they both dipped in the middle. Decor/paintwork tired. Staff were friendly and helpful

Disliked: Cleanliness

Unfortunately, the electricity and water was not available at checking in due to hotel issues. This was fixed by the time I got back to the hotel late that night. I booked for a king size bed but given 2 singles. Again, this was resolved by the time I returned to the hotel late that night. Issue I had was calling the reception which took about 30 mins albeit they are open 24/7, I just kept getting voicemails. Reception was slow too. Clearly in answering calls, but also in dealing with customers. On the plus side, they are courteous and polite. As for the room, I returned to the hotel to find that there were skid marks in my toilet when I hadn’t used it the whole day, having been out. The water was also turned on in the sink. Unfortunately I did not find out till the next morning so I had not bothered to complain to management. The room is also small and not modern. Bearing in mind it is a 4 star hotel, I think Novotel with similar ranking is a lot better. Double tree Hilton which is just a few doors down may also be a better option. I won’t be returning. The toilet was a big no no for me.

Great location and staff

Excellent location, room was small but standard for London, appreciated there being a fridge and iron in the room. Staff were all very nice and they allowed us to have a late check out, which we really appreciated. Would definitely stay here again.
