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.

Clean rooms,comfortable beds,and excellent location make this hotel a great choice for Central London. Located in a quiet section of Bloomsbury but with many places to eat and the tube close by. Check out Solitude Bakehouse for some really good Almond Croissants. I will definitely make this hotel my go to when I return to London.

Hotel room was very clean and very spacious. Beds were comfy and shower was nice. The lifts could only be used if you had a room key which was good security. There was a smell of cigarette smoke in the morning when walking through the corridor! The breakfast was nice a variety of hot and cold buffet style unfortunately the hot food was not that hot I’d say Luke warm at best but for the price of the hotel in a great location it was well worth the money! Staff were all pleasant too

I had a very pleasant stay at the President Hotel. The hotel is well located, making it easy to access the main attractions and business areas. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with all the necessary amenities for a relaxing stay. The staff were professional, friendly, and always willing to help with any requests. Breakfast was tasty and offered a good selection of dishes. The overall atmosphere of the hotel was calm and welcoming, which made my stay even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend the President Hotel to both business and leisure travelers, and I would gladly stay here again.

I love The President Hotel! My 2nd year staying here and will be back next year. The price and location cannot be beat! On Friday night they had this amazing jazz band playing in the Atrium while we had after show drinks. I booked my room in July for $166/night. I also turned other friends on to the hotel who stayed there and had the same experience. Bravo President Hotel!!!!!!!
