The hotel offers charming and spotlessly clean rooms overlooking Gower Street and the amazing LSHTM frieze. However, the rooms were much too warm even with the window open and radiators all shut off. The service was very helpful and friendly, though a tiny bit brisk at times. The location is superb and very convenient for the West End and Euston, with several underground stations nearby. The dining experience was very good with friendly staff, although the options were very basic. The hotel has excellent facilities, making the stay comfortable.

I found the hotel to be warm and cozy, and the staff was very helpful, just what we wanted. However, it was cold at times. The smart TV in the room was a nice touch, but being at the top of three flights of stairs was a bit tiring.

The service was very helpful and courteous, with the staff going above and beyond in advising us on evening activities. However, there was an incident where a staff member kept rushing past the back of a chair, repeatedly hitting one of our group with no apologies given.

Dining

The dining experience was average, not meeting my expectations compared to the quality of the room. The options were limited and the coffee, in particular, was not brewed but instant and unpleasant.

Facilities

The hotel lacked an elevator, which was a downside considering it was on the top floor. However, the cozy atmosphere made up for this inconvenience.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is superb, close to everything we needed and easy access to Ally Pally, but the rooms were a bit noisy being at the front and in need of an update. The lack of a lift was inconvenient, especially for those with mobility issues.

Rooms

6.0

The room I stayed in was at the front of the hotel, so I had to keep the windows closed due to the noise. It was surprisingly quiet considering it was just below street level. However, the need for an update was noticeable. The three flights of stairs to my room were a challenge, something I overlooked when booking. Just be mindful if mobility is a concern.

The hotel is nestled right at the top of the building, providing a quiet and spacious retreat. The rooms, despite the bathroom cube, are spotlessly clean and big, offering a comfortable stay. The service is friendly and welcoming, even amidst refurbishments. The location is ideal, close to key attractions and convenient for exploring. The dining options, while good enough, could offer more variety. Overall, a comfortable and welcoming stay with great value for money.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were nicely decorated and airy, a good size for London, and perfectly clean. However, they had no views and were quite noisy due to the creaky floor above. The service was friendly and the location was fantastic, close to many attractions and public transport. The dining experience was good, though it could have finished a bit later. The facilities were adequate for my needs.
