This is a hotel where solo female travellers are welcome and can feel safe. I was there from a Fri night to a Sat morning, so it might be a bit less quiet on a weekday morning than I experienced as it is on a main road. I booked a small double, as I found the single to be too small on a prior stay and it was well worth the small extra expense.The breakfast is more than adequate, though it is a buffet with no hot options. Lots of nut milks and vegan yogurts available though, which is a bonus. I will be back if I need to stay in the area again in the future.

Depressing

So went to the Bloomsbury and no room, so sent a couple of doors down to the Cavendish...room smelt, TV did not work, not tidy, broken skirting boards, radiator paint cracking, old fashioned bathroom. But I slept really well, but was OK.

Definitely not 4 star!

I’s very cheap and you get what you pay for. I had one of the single rooms and it’s big enough for one night but that’s it, no where to put a suitcase. The bed is really short, I’m just under 6 foot and my head was on the headboard and my feet touched the wall at the end. Also very hot, there is a fan but there’s nowhere to put it unless you have it right next to your head.

Friendly staff

Friendly staff. Communal areas good. Room was mostly clean. However, I barely slept due to the smell of an artificial air freshener. It wasn't located in my room but outside in the hallway (only a single door between my room and the landing). I hope to avoid this room on my next visit.

Weekend Away.

We stayed in room 305 which was at the top of the hotel. No lift, 3 flights of stairs...so if mobilly impaired then ask for a lower level. The bathroom was tiny and the door did not close , as not fitted correctly. The room was warm, there was no air con but the window opened as that was fine. It was clean and pretty comfortable. The staff were very helpful and the continental breakfast was good. It was however, perfectly situated for where we wanted to be. Pretty quiet at night. Lovely Italian restaurant and wine bar around the corner from the hotel.

Poor Hotel

Uneasy to check in, the system is asking for reservation number sent in email address, however, there's no reservation number instead an itinerary number. Therefore, I entered this number, however, it's not bring recognised by the system. On positive note, the staff is accommodating. The room has no enough space to move around, although I booked for a room good for one, I was not expecting that the size of my room is like a prison. The bedside table is not clean, very dusty. I believe they forgot to clean it. Or maybe, I'm expecting too much hence I checked in very late, before 12midnight. The ceiling is not well managed. The sink is too small where my hands are constantly touched the faucet when washing. There's no enough space in between the toilet bowl and the sink, I must sit on the toilet slightly different. The bed is not the usual single bed but the size is like a trolley in Emergency Room or Theatre where there's no space for you to move or reposition. I'm too tired and I don't want to stress myself therefore, I didn't ask for a replacement of my room. My goal is just to sleep hence I need to wake up early to attend the conference, which is the reason I visited London.

I really am enjoying my stay in this hotel. My trip has been extended due to a winter storm and the hotel immediately accommodated my ask for an additional night. I am staying in the same room and the rate was cheaper than other nights here. The rooms are very small and cramped; however, this is typical of British hotels and especially London. Actually, my room looks bigger in person than on the photos and I have a small single room. Service is great. Daily, the staff clean your room and since my trip was delayed, I have been fortunate to be able to work on my computer in the breakfast room.
