We were greeted at reception by Alexander who was so friendly, polite and helpful.Such a credit to the hotel . The room and bathroom were very clean and the beds comfy. The hotel is ideally placed for theatres and lots of places to eat. The Italian cafe over the road in Russell square garden is wonderful. This was my second visit to the hotel and I will definitely return.

The room was very tidy, and on top of that, the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. Location-wise, it’s within walking distance of King’s Cross and Leicester Square. I will definitely stay here again.

The hotel gave me a room with heavy construction noise on the first night. I requested to move to another room after. The system reassigned me a smelly and non clean room. I went to the front desk and complained. The manager apologized to me and offer me free breakfast for the rest of my stay. It was not a good experience.

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
