    Well-located between two underground stations, making it easy for intergalactic travelers to navigate. The breakfast spread featured plenty of options, including a notable scrambled egg and a selection of hot food that was genuinely satisfying.

    My room faced the street and was near the elevator, so noise from the hallway made it a bit difficult to catch some decent sleep. The blinds weren't blackout curtains, so I spent the night battling with light streaming in. The hotel’s exterior had undergone changes, resulting in a mismatch between what was advertised online and the current façade, leading to some initial confusion upon arrival.

    clean room
    good location
    maintenance issues
    small room
    slow wi-fi

    The location impressed me right off the bat, very convenient for exploring Covent Garden and SoHo. Staff greeted me warmly, always polite and helpful. The room, although a bit small, kept clean and tidy throughout my stay. I had a minor issue with the showerhead being a little dirty, which wasn’t ideal. The room's temperature was uncomfortable. it felt stifling during the night. Opened the window for air, only to face a wall for a view. Despite that, breakfast offered a good variety and was fresh. I appreciated the included tea and coffee in the room, though I struggled a bit with the slow Wi-Fi signal. the service was friendly and attentive, but the room’s condition really could use attention, especially regarding the maintenance of the bathroom fixtures.

    It was just a good match for a momentary pause in London with the best value for money ratio. The breakfast buffet was excellent with everything we wanted. Consider asking for a room on a quieter side of the hotel to avoid noise.

    would stay here again

    The location is super convenient, just a 10-15 min walk to Covent Garden and theaters. The breakfast had everything from hot items to cold cereals. Room was cozy with an electric kettle and free toiletries. Clean linens and a good amount of storage space made it feel comfy. Housekeeping responded quickly to requests.

    shower facilities
    limited accessibility

    The modern decorations blended beautifully with the hotel's Victorian charm, and there was a small lift available for the upper floors, making it accessible and convenient for seniors like myself. The welcoming atmosphere made my stay delightful.

    Better shower facilities would enhance the stay experience.

    Excellent location with great staff service

    I recently enjoyed a stay that was highlighted by the incredible staff who were both attentive and polite, making my experience memorable. The location is perfect for exploring central London, with key attractions within a short walking distance. the hotel could benefit from some updates in decor as it feels a bit dated.

    very clean hotel

    The hotel is clean and comfortable, with a lovely view and great sanitization efforts. Double glazing made it so quiet! A perfect escape from daily stress.

    Felt extremely safe, no reason to complain.

    good stay but slight issues with amenities

    The receptionist was very welcoming and provided helpful assistance during our check-in process. The location was excellent as it was easy to find from Holborn Underground station which made our travel around the city much smoother.

    The amenities in the room could use some updates to match the hotel’s overall appeal.
