Disappointed
The location is brilliant for walking to Covent Garden, SoHo and surrounding areas. The staff were very friendly, courteous and professional. My issue was the room. I travelled with a friend to have a fun few days in London and booked a twin room. The room was a tiny accessible room. I’m not convinced it would have suited a wheelchair user. The bathroom was beyond dated. The shower head hung off the wall, all the sealant needed replacing as it was mouldy in the shower and around the sink. The beds were ok but the room was boiling hot. The wardrobe was behind the door so we couldn’t open the wardrobe door properly because of the A hinge on the room door. (For those that have ever watched Room 101) Ironically the room was 101 which we did see the funny side as I would definitely put that room in 101! It needed a complete overhaul.

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.
