Nice enough hotel

Nice enough hotel in a very good location for all public transport links. Good size restaurant so no queueing for breakfast which was plentiful and well laid out. There’s a hospital nearby so sirens are regular if you are the street side. There’s no AC so sleeping with the window option comes with consequences. The quilt we had smelled and had stains on it but given how warm it was we only used the quilt cover anyway.

Single room was very functionally equipped, roomy, with a gorgeous view over London (7th floor). It seemed new or newly renovated. Staff was efficient and friendly and breakfast was included and sumptuous.

Hotel was extremely noisy, not just outside but also the walls were very thin and you could hear a lot from the other rooms. We had an issue with breakfast which the staff were extremely reluctant to sort, thankfully Expedia was keen to help.

Proximity of hotel to Underground Station and dining facilities. Breakfast was outstanding; a variety of hot foods, coffee and tea choices, veggies and fruits, etc. Atrium restaurant was very convenient for hungry guests, too. Front desk personnel were helpful: Hotel is clean. Another chair in the room would be better for us, though… Thank you.

The hotel is ok, great location. The room is tight for 3 people. The bathroom is also tight and untidy since the water from the shower will definitely make the floor wet. The separate toilet is very unhygienic since you have to wash hands in the bathroom. The hotel is old and needs updating particularly the lobby furnishings. The fromt desk staff are helpful and friendly.

This hotel is a quick walk to the Russel Square tube stop. There are some dining options nearby. Staff is very helpful. Rooms are larger than many London rooms, but they do not have air conditioning. The hotel did provide a plug in fan, which was necessary since it was unusually warm for early September.
