Great location. Room for 3 spacious, clean and beds comfy. Breakfast plenty of choice and good quality. Can get busy. We were seated quickly and everything buffet style. Had drinks in bar opposite which was really convenient! Easy to get to from London Euston. Was noisy outside as we were on first floor on the main road but we all slept ok. Would recommend. Grab rail in shower could be better placed as not easy to use when getting in and out of shower.

Before checking in, I was feeling unwell and asked for help, and the staff arranged for an ambulance and took care of the paperwork for me as I was unable to move. They were always by my side and cared for me. It was very reassuring. In particular, staff member Japanese staff translated for me as I didn't understand English, which really made me feel at ease. The room was very clean. There was probably no air conditioning, but it wasn't cold. There is no refrigerator, so be careful when buying cold foods. It is very close to the Piccadilly Line station, so it is easy to get to from the airport. Kings Cross Station and other stations are also within walking distance. I have now returned to Japan safely and can go home. I am truly sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you very much.

We stayed for three nights in one of the standard plus double rooms during our trip in October. The room was clean and we thought it was spacious, perfect for what we needed. The room did get hot, thankfully we could open the window and there was a fan provided. The location of the hotel is one of the best things about it. It's within walking distance of everything you need including food and all public transport options that can take you to any side of the city. The hotel staff we friendly and helpful upon check-in and allowed us to sort our bags while we explored after check-out. I would highly recommend to stay here, especially those staying in London for the first time as it's easy to navigate.

Pro: Excellent location. Super access to all forms of transportation, many cafes, restaurants and shopping near by. Rooms were clean. Great price but you get what you paid for. Con: We had two rooms for 5 days, each only serviced/cleaned one time. Twice the house keeping staff said they were sorry they just ran out of time. Twice we ran out of toilet paper. Once I took it from a housekeeping cart myself the second time it took the front desk 40 minutes to bring one up. Smoking section is right in front of the hotel. It will be the first thing you smell when you approach or leave. Rooms are very warm, but the windows crack open which helps. The room that faces the street is noisy so if this a problem for you ask the front desk for a different location. Door paneling (lipstick on a pig) on the room door is peeling off. Budget mattresses, not the best or worse. It’s a very transactional hotel, if saving $ is your big thing this hotel works, for us, we will spend the extra money to stay elsewhere.

A popular budget-friendly option, offering a central location near major attractions and excellent public transport links. While its size ensures availability, the facilities and service can feel impersonal at times. The rooms are basic but clean, and the breakfast, though sufficient, is often busy due to the hotel’s large number of guests. For those seeking affordability and convenience over luxury, it’s a practical choice. However, improvements in modern amenities and customer service would enhance the overall experience. Perfect for short stays or travelers focused on exploring the city rather than spending time in the hotel.
