Excellent location
Great location. amazing reception staff. We booked a quadruple room for 3 of us which was comfortable. The bathroom was tiny but everything worked. The breakfast was included and was ok but the breakfast room was crowded and hot. The coffee was stewed from sitting on a hot plate and the food was not what I would choose to eat.

I recently stayed at the Arran House Hotel and had a pleasant experience overall. One of the standout features of this hotel is its prime location; it’s situated in a lovely neighborhood that is close to various attractions, shops, and restaurants, making it incredibly convenient for exploring the area. When booking your room, I highly recommend ensuring that you choose one with an en-suite bathroom. Some rooms do not have private bathrooms, which could be a downside for some guests. I booked a room with four beds, and I was pleased to find that it included its own bathroom and shower, providing added comfort and privacy during my stay. One thing to note is that there is no elevator in the hotel, so be prepared to carry your bags up the stairs. This wasn’t a major issue for me, but it’s something to consider if you have heavy luggage or mobility concerns. Overall, I enjoyed my stay at Arran House Hotel and would recommend it for those looking for a convenient and cozy place to stay in a great neighborhood!

Short trip
Was pleasantly suprised as had read negative reviews . Clean friendly stay , the staff were so polite and helpful. The breakfast was of a good standard too . We had to share bathroom and toilet but were very clean . Reception is 24 hr and you get to speak to a person. I discovered the plan is to renovate al rooms to an en-suite design for spring 2025 . A lovely stay for us in the heart of London !

I’m usually pretty relaxed when it comes to overseas hotel experiences (I’m from the states). And in reading the reviews I was hopeful that others were overreacting… they were not. I feel 3 stars is generous. The location was excellent which is ultimately what caused me to book the place. It is very walkable to the tube and restaurants are right around the corner. The accommodations left much to be desired. If you’re spending a day or two in London and need somewhere to crash. Perfect. If however, like me you plan on making it your home base as you take day trips to Stonehenge, Paris, or Dover. Best to book somewhere with a bit higher star rating and more comfortable accommodations.

I was for 7 days and they never changed sheets or towels. They gave me a room without a bathroom, when I made the reservation it was supposedly with a private bathroom, they gave me a room with a shared bathroom, the they told me that those were more expensive. Before making a reservation at a hotel check what they offer.

Simple and basic room and breakfast, shared shower. Convenient location. Booked when the price was discounted (£69/night). For that price, in the centre of London, it's worth it! Thats why i give a 5 star.

The location is great to the subway station. The staff were very helpful. Breakfast options were good. Lots of stairs to climb which was difficult for my mother. Would prefer better air conditioning options- the fan in our room was not enough for when it was really hot. Would also like a common space to hang out that is not the general office.

Do not choose this hotel if you want communication. Do not choose this hotel if you like a room that is not a broom cupboard furnished from the last century. Do not choose this hotel if you want a proper shower. In short, don’t book this hotel and I personally will never use Expedia again

Good choice for a short stay on a budget
Very nice staff. Very well-stocked breakfast. The room was on the top floor and with a small window, it was a bit too warm even with the window open all night.
