Disliked: Room comfort
Noisy noisy noisy
If you enjoy hearing all the sounds of the city while being in your room with the windows closed, this is the place for you. The room was hot and we couldn’t open the windows because we wouldn’t be able to sleep with the noise. Even with the windows closed, we had to sleep with ear plugs in.
We had a great stay at Tavistock. The room was fairly small, but perfect for two adults who mainly just wanted to roam around London. An easy walk to the British Museum, and easy transit to everywhere else. The place was neat and clean, the staff was friendly and professional.
Solo traveller 1 night stay en route to Eurostar Germany. My room was upgraded from single to king size. I only slept here for few hours b4 Early train. Staff friendly and helpful. Hotel bar and restaurant looked nice sadly no time to try. 10 minutes walk to St Pancras King's Cross. Very close to Euston Russel Square etc. Lots of small supermarkets nearby. I had a room overlooking the square was very quiet. Very clean and comfortable. Would recommend.
Great location for the theatres
Excellent service given from all staff
Good choice of menu in the restaurant and bar
Would definitely stay again when staying over in London
The hotel is good price , good location , walkable to UCL, good front desk ,
Toilet wasn’t clean , previous guest mess was still there ,very gross. Towels are not white , few spots
Generally with the price , it’s not bad .
I stayed 6 nights in a park view room. The view was beautiful. The room was clean and well equipped.
The hotel staff were really polite, friendly and helpful. The Woolf and Whistle restaurant was a very cozy place with good food and relaxing atmosphere, a very nice place to spend a peaceful evening after a busy day.
The room was VERY small but the window opened up and looked out at the leafy square and the beds were super comfortable. The price was excellent. The breakfast was great.
This hotel was clean and modern, and the staff was friendly. The only drawback for my wife and me was that the room was small and only one person at a time could fit in the bathroom, which slowed down the logistics of getting out of the hotel each the morning and going to bed at night. But that may be unavoidable in hotels in central London.
Very nice hotel, the staff were friendly and efficient , we were able to check in early and drop off our luggage. Room was clean and comfortable with a nice view from the window. The breakfast was delicious and hot. We were able to leave our luggage at the hotel and go out and enjoy our day then pick it up on the way to the train station. We have stayed here before and it has improved greatly since then
The beds here were super comfy! The room was all you could need but a bit tight. I did book on expedia but was sad to know i didn’t get the breakfast included like it said i did.

Our room was extremely hot and they didn’t do anything about and had no other rooms to match our needs.
