My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. The rooms were spacious and nicely furnished, perfect for three people, but the constant noise from the housekeeping station next door disrupted any chance of a peaceful morning. The room was uncomfortably hot despite efforts to regulate the temperature. The location was excellent, just a stone's throw from the British Museum, but the dining options were limited to continental fares which could get pricey. The service was kind and thorough, but there were instances of rudeness towards staff. Overall, a stay with highs and lows.

The hotel is in a wonderful central location near the British Museum on a quiet street. The rooms, though clean and cozy, show signs of wear. The service was welcoming and helpful but lacked attention to complaints. The dining experience was satisfactory but had hidden costs for hot breakfast. The location is perfect for exploring London on foot.

I found the hotel's location to be its strongest point, being right by the British Museum and a short walk from Euston. However, the room was cramped and uncomfortably warm due to the lack of air conditioning, with only a noisy fan as a cooling option.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were very clean but had some issues like a noisy air conditioning unit and broken edging on the bathroom door that caught and pinched me. The service was mostly pleasant and efficient, with a few standout staff members. The location was perfect for exploring central London, but there were some additional fees that I didn't expect. The dining experience was hit or miss, with some disappointing continental breakfasts throughout the week but a surprising improvement on Sundays. Pricing was reasonable overall, but some aspects could be better.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with interesting decor and prints on the walls, though some areas show signs of wear and tear. Great value for money. Staff are friendly and welcoming, but the service could benefit from some improvements. Wonderful central location near key attractions in London. Dining experience varied, with hot choice availability as a downside.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and not so good experiences. The room was spacious with very nice-looking furniture in very good condition, but it felt a bit cramped due to the super king-size bed taking up a lot of space. The lack of towels on cleaning day and the placement of the kettle in a wall box were minor inconveniences. On the bright side, the large comfortable bed, very large bath, powerful shower, and plenty of piping hot water made up for it. The breakfast choices were fantastic, with the continental breakfast being a standout, and the English breakfast offering good value. However, the lack of air conditioning was a downside.

The location was superb. Being very near the British Museum in the Bloomsbury area made it ideal for exploring. It was also convenient to reach the Covent Garden area and the Theatre district.

The dining experience had its highs and lows. While the £4 supplement for a full English breakfast was worth it and offered all you could want, some issues were faced such as the need to pay extra for the full English breakfast. On the other hand, there were reports of encountering mice and seeing a large heap of rubbish by the front door, which was disappointing.
