Shabby and old
Really shabby hotel, shower barely worked and couldn’t plug a lap top in to charge as socket position was so low. I tried to report the issue but the queue at reception was so long I had to leave. Window in room was old and had mould.

OK, once in 30 years is about right.
Haven't stayed here since 1996 on a Uni Field Trip, felt like an appropriate amount of time. It's OK, good location, bed was comfy and the room was clean. Decor is 1990s (not sure it changed since I was there last), breakfast wasn't bad, but field kitchen standard. Check-in was atrocious, we were all guided into lines which then got served faster than those of us who had queued for 30 minutes (this is the UK, we DO queuing here), which was frustrating. Staff were friendly though, despite angry guests waiting for their rooms.

Pleasantly Surprised
This hotel exceeded my expectations. It was in a great location! The room was quiet, comfortable, and clean. The customer service was top notch as every staff person we encountered was helpful. I will definitely stay here again because we had such an enjoyable experience.

Great hotel in a good location.
Hotel and staff are lovely and helpful. Rooms clean and spacious. Lovely shower. Only downside was that then room looked out to a loud courtyard and the room was boiling meaning I couldn’t open the window as it disturbed my sleep. Which is why I did not give 5 stars. 5 minutes from the tube station and 20 minute walk to Covent Garden.

Happy Stay
There are over 400 rooms in the hotel and check-in took a bit of time was expected. The bathroom is very big and clean. The downside was room was not bright enough and the twin single beds were very narrow.

Great location - but bring your ear plugs!
Great location. Clean & friendly. The one thing that spoils this hotel is the lack of double glazing so you can hear SO much noise from outside - traffic, people talking in the street, tuk-tuk music. Ear plugs are essential!

Fantastic hotel
Fantastic stay at this hotel, beds were comfy and the rooms were clean and perfect for us as we was out most of the day. The bathroom was nice to. The reception staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. Would recommend this hotel stay and will definitely be back!

Good place to stay
Pleasant stay, basic for what you need. Rooms were a little dated and some places weren’t as clean as we would’ve expected but it was good for what we paid.

I struggle after back surgery. One of the concierge staff saw I was in pain whilst trying to get hold of a taxi for me. He went and found a chair for me and sorted the cab and then helped me in. Above and beyond service where all the staff are lovely
