Great Bloomsbury find

Great hotel, very friendly staff and good location. Room nicely fitted out, comfy bed, fluffy towels. Bathroom quite small but wasn't an issue for me. Ate in the pub style restaurant = Woolf & Whistle lovely food & excellent prices for central London! Would recommend for overnights in London.

The hotel is well situated with fantastic travel links around the City, the staff are very friendly & helpful, the breakfast was of high standard, only criticism the room didn't have air-conditioning, however they did supply a fan as it can get a very warm during the night. Highly recommended for a city break.

The staff here are very helpful and welcoming. We were able to leave our bags here a day before we checked in which was very helpful. The room was a good size for central London. Great location

The staff were great, nothing is too much trouble. The hotel from the outside doesn’t look much but inside all modern & tasteful. We were a bit anxious if we’d get any sleep at all being on the main road, but we slept really well. The room was a good size & clean, bed comfy. Definitely stay again.

Fantastic Hotel!

Second time staying here- great hotel; really centrally located, close to Soho and Covent Garden, quiet and overlooking Tavistock Park. Breakfast was included, hairdryer in room, kettle with tea and coffee; and really good value for money. Would highly recommend!

Great position for a visit to London with easy access to the central bus and tube lines. Cramped bathroom but a calming view across Tavistock Square makes up for that.

I would have liked instructions on how to turn down the heating in my room. Excellent TV reception, and friendly, courteous staff. Would certainly consider staying here again.
