We came as a family of 4 - two parents and two children. The room had 2 double beds, which is not common in London. The bathroom was large, and had many shelves and places to put our stuff - again, this is not common in London. The location was wonderful! It's close to the university of London, so the atmosphere is very student-like, and feels safe to go around. There are many cafes and bars around (not in the same street, but 7-10 minutes walk). The closest tube station (Goodge Street on the Northern line) was quite close, and there was a bicycle hire station close by as well.
The mattress was a bit hard for my liking. The water flow in the shower was a bit weak.

Perfect location, especially if you are visiting UCL. Even if you don't have anything to do with UCL, the location is quite central and well-connected. Great value for money, particularly if you don't plan to spend too much time indoors. The family room can easily sleep 4, even though we were only 3 - but with 1 bathroom, time to get ready in the morning may be longer if you are 4. We only stayed for 1 night, so not a lot to say, but we were satisfied with everything and not inconvenienced.
Nothing in particular. The key to the main door was a bit tricky, but there is always someone at the reception to let you in except late in the night - wasn't a problem for us.

The melon in a bowl was nice, there was a good selection of food. I would have liked a fruit salad for breakfast, but the chopped up melon was nice. The scrambled egg was nice, but too rich as it had a lot of butter in it.
The room didn't have any USB sockets for the phone. The ariel on the television wasn't working as the pictures on every channel in the evening and morning was breaking up, as the reception wasn't great. The shower was nicely decorated, but the water was either hot or cold, the thermoset is broken.

The twin room was exactly as described. It was very clean, with very crisp sheets and comfortable beds, though small singles. The loo was clean and modern with good toiletries supplied. The room is small, but typical of this style of property and the area in central London. We chose the hotel for the specific location close to UCL Hospital. The area feels safe. The staff member on check-in was helpful. We had to leave very early the next morning so we cannot comment on breakfast.
There was nothing we didn't like. I would say that the carpet in our twin room really needs replacing as it is very worn, but this did not detract from the cleanliness of the room or impact our stay.

The room had everything we needed, comfortable beds, powerful shower and access to additional plug sockets! The room was spacious, clean and quiet. The team at the hotel were really friendly, we arrived early and were allowed access to our room which was great, we also left our luggage on the second day so we could continue with our adventures. Fantastic location for London Euston 10 minute walk, Goodge street underground 10/15 minute walk, Shaftesbury Theatre 15 minute walk.
The room suited our needs perfectly.

This lovely hotel was exactly what I expected. Yes the room was very small, but it's London. However it was still perfect in its petiteness. The bed was good if a bit small. The bathroom excellent, the tea (and cookies/biscuits) replaced daily, the towels fluffy, the internet fast. They also had sockets at the desk for a variety of international plugs. The breakfast was very good, lots of variety and the lovely ladies would cook your eggs however you wanted them. The location was PERFECT. We were traveling by train, first arriving at Euston Station and leaving a few days later from St. Pancreas, both a short walk away. Plus we were visiting the British Museum on the same street as the hotel!
The only suggestion I can make is the sockets next to the bedside table are at the same height as the shelf of the table. Making use of the plug meant moving the table; raising or lowering the bedside table would solve the problem.

A one star property in terms of service with no luggage storage and strict checkout times. Our double room was tiny at 110 square feet (much smaller than a cruise ship cabin). However it was very clean, well laid out, had good fans and a beautiful bathroom with a great shower. Lots of outlets.
Every time I got out of bed, I knocked the bed light of the wall. Needed a chair for the desk. Breakfast overpriced.

I'd booked a single room but was given a lovely room with a double bed on the ground floor with a view over the garden, as I'd requested. The location of the hotel was very close to a tube station, so very handy. The staff were helpful and friendly. The breakfast was good, but the buffet had run out of some items on my first morning.
I found the breakfast room a bit cramped and noisy, especially as it had been 'taken over' by a large group of other guests.

We chose this hotel for its location and we were not disappointed - a few minutes walk to Oxford Street or the British Museum, great connection to the airport and the biggest attractions in London. Additionally, friendly staff and tasty breakfasts.
The room was quite small and worn out, the bathroom was tiny, the ventilation in the room left a bit to be desired because upon entering it was stuffy.

The room was small but charming and exceptionally clean. The bathroom was spotless as well, with plenty of hot water and complimentary shower gels and toiletries provided.
It would have been lovely if bottled water had been provided alongside the tea amenities. Also, please note there isn’t 24/7 staff on-site—when I arrived late, I had to ring the doorbell, but someone kindly opened the door right away.
