I had a very good experience at the Kimpton. Though the room is on the small side, it has everything you need and more. I really like the solid and elegant furnishing with one of the best hotel slippers. Staff was great and accommodating. Excellent location with the convenient of super close Russell Square Tube station. Highly recommended!

Cheap hotel experience
After all the pomp and ceremony you encounter upon walking into the hotel you really feel as though you’re entered a place of class…only to be sorely let down when you go up to your room. Our room could have been in the travel lodge except the air conditioning was unreliable…it was around 19 degrees the night we stayed and the room was stifling. ‘Engineering’ came to our room but fundamentally it was a broken system. Secondly, we booked an accessible room which had a shower over the bath. So whilst there were red cords everywhere that you could pull, you couldn’t have a shower. Extremely misleading. The room cost over £300 per night and I really was not expecting such a cheap hotel experience.

Morning grumpiness
Most of the staff at this hotel are top notch and it's a gorgeous property. But my mornings were miserable. There is supposed to be a coffee shop along with the main breakfast served in the restaurant. On two of the days the cafe was closed and was directed to coffee being served in the bar. On both those days when I entered the room and found the coffee pitcher empty, when I asked for it to be refilled the staff treated my request like I was asking for them for a great important favor that I didn't deserve. Final morning, I decided to try the main restaurant and all the hot items on the buffet were cold, and the service was terrible. Recommend the hotel but just go off property for coffee and breakfast.
