8/10 Good

Central location in Bloomsbury - beautiful and quiet area. Very good breakfast, polite and efficient staff. I stayed in a single room which I guess is uncommon, but it was nice enough with at view of the garden. Airconditioning would have been nice in July, but a fan was provided.

Janice, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The hotel was moderately priced and situated in an excellent area near Russell Square with easy access to the British Museum and many parts of the University of London. It was very well maintained. I stayed in a single room that was extremely well equipped with plenty of storage although a rather tiny bathroom.

We were sent to a Sister hotel because there was a water issue when we checked in. However, they upgraded our room and they provide us with both excellent dinner and breakfast included.
Delicious complimentary dinner in the outdoor gardens.

Patricia, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great location close to the British Museum and Soho. Underground stations are close by too as well as Euston station. Only drawback is that there is no air conditioning in the rooms. I've stayed here in the fall and spring before and that was not a big deal, but in the summertime, it gets fairly warm.
