The rooms are quite old, and some details have clearly not been taken into consideration. There is only one power outlet, there is no hanger in the bathroom, and there is an unpleasant, somewhat strange smell in the lobby and corridors. However, the staff are very friendly and welcoming.

It was crazy hot when we were here but the property doesn't have AC. Usually in England, that's not a problem! Big room, nice bedding, twin beds were helpful & big mirrors for getting ready. Bathroom was a good size.
The location of the hotel has good transport links with a bus stop outside, and it is close to Russell Square tube station. It is also a short walk to Oxford Street. However disappointed with the bathroom. This needs to be upgraded, and we struggled with only 2 power sockets in the room, one of these was connected to the television. The mirror was not close enough to the power socket, and it was rose tinted, so you could not see through it very good at all. The room was very dark with poor lighting. The breakfast was not value for money, we had to keep asking for food items, as the buffet was not replenished or monitored by staff. Therefore it took a long time to have breakfast, with the waiting around. There needs to be more staff present in this area to deal with the guests needs. The staff appeared very inexperienced at times, especially on the reception desk, and it was obvious they needed further training on their computer system.
Location is perfect for sightseeing and shows. Staff were friendly and helpful.

The hotel is in a great location , rooms are relatively clean ( bit of dirt in bathroom unfortunately) but no air conditioning so rooms extremely hot. The hotel has put fans in the rooms though. One thing to mention - there are not enough plug sockets in the rooms! On the whole the hotel is good value for money
Staff is wonderful and property is modern and clean but noise from outside is very audible in room as is sounds (talking and/or television at regular volume) from next room. Also, elevator is incredibly slow and small.
Staff attentive. Room was great with air conditioning especially during the heat wave.
