The hotel is situated in a prime location, just a short walk from essential attractions. The staff were very accommodating, especially when we needed to check in early and move rooms. However, the accommodations are showing their age; the rooms were small and some amenities were lacking. There were noticeable issues with housekeeping, and our overall stay fell short of expectations given the price point.
Rooms

We were given a room that was quite spacious, but the bathroom was painfully tiny, which was disappointing. The furnishings were worn and the overall appearance felt dated.

The hotel has a great location near the British Museum and Holborn station, with spacious rooms at a reasonable price. However, my experience was marred by various inconveniences such as outdated rooms and inadequate service. The air conditioning was a major issue, making my stay uncomfortable during warm weather. Overall, while it has potential, significant improvements are needed for a better experience.

I stayed at the hotel for a relaxing getaway, and while there were some highlights like the clean environment and an excellent massage, a few service hiccups prevented me from fully enjoying my experience. The location is great, but the bar and dining service need improvement. Overall, it was a decent stay, but not quite what I hoped for given the price.

My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The rooms were spacious, clean, and very comfortable, though I did notice they could use a little refreshing. The location is perfect for exploring central London, being within walking distance of many attractions. However, the dining options were pricier than I expected, and the noise from slamming doors was a bit disruptive at times.
