Booked this hotel purely for its central location and for the price I paid I cannot complain. Yes, it's shabby, the decor is dated and the less said about the shared facilities the better. However, staff at reception were friendly, sink in the room and bedlinen was clean. Bring earplugs, there's a generator at the back of the property that runs all night.

The window latch was nearly falling off so no security. The main door lock was loose nearly coming off the door. No bath/ shower mat - dangerous. TV remote batteries were dead. The room was small and very basic.

We returned to our room, only to find a flooded bathroom and bedroom. The Hotel failed to offer us an alternative room and refused any compensation.

Disliked: Amenities
The room (24) is very basic and run down. Sheets and towels were clean and fresh which stood out from the rest of the room. Unfortunately this room is at the top of the steps, so its noisy when people are moving around. The back of the room, faces the British Museum, whcih is undergoing building works at the moment and they stary at 730am. This room also has a sink, but no toilet or shower and is very expensive conpared to other rooms in the area with these facilities, so book early and get one of those.

Really run down hotel. Freezing room. No hot water in the morning for a shower. Caught my toe on a broken tile in the bathroom. Could be one of the worst hotels in London

I’ve seen better hostels at 20$ / night. :/ sorry man… From the moment you step into the lobby, all the way to the bedroom… it smells strongly like some old lady’s damp and musky basement. The shower is barely lukewarm, and the showerhead gives a mere trickle, zero pressure. Same for the tap, lukewarm, just a trickle, into a sink which is completely clogged up. The bed is uncomfortable, you can feel the springs in your back, and it’s squeaks. Pillow is as thin as a pancake. The walls are made of paper. Everything creeks and squeaks. The air is hot and stuffy even if it’s 12°C outside, and the window doesn’t open enough to properly let a breeze in.

The room was in bad repair with a stained carpet and a broken curtain rail. The TV didn’t work despite asking for a remote control that didn’t materialise. The shared facilities were no better. This was a last minute booking and I wished I hadn’t bothered.

The only thing this hotel has going for it is location, in the middle of Bloomsbury. Inside it is very run down. The bed linen was clean thankfully, but the en-suite was grubby, hardly any water pressure from the taps. The single curtain at the window had a hook either end, and the ceiling and one of the walls had water stains, presumably from a leak above. Sorry Gresham, we won’t be back.

My husband and I travelled into London to see a show and not wanting to have to rush to get a train home decided to stay for the night. Normally we book slightly more expensive hotels - in the 140-160 range with breakfast included but for this trip we decided to stay in a slightly less pricey hotel to cut costs. The Gresham is in a fabulous location - no doubt about that. It’s perfectly situated for The West End and for many of the museums and galleries in central London. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Very warm and welcoming. The room was tired in terms of decor but that didn’t bother us at all - in fact it added a certain charm. It was also very clean. The real issue for us were the mattresses which, although clean, were in terrible condition. Sagging on one side and every spring could be felt. The other issue was the noise - we were right by the road so there was traffic noise, music from cars ect all night but the first was noise from other guests. We could hear every footstep above us, doors slamming, and at one point (about 3am) a group of very drunk guests started blaring music and having a sing song. Then at about 4 we heard ‘shenanigans’ thanks to a creaky upstairs bed. We accept other people’s noises will sometimes be an issue when staying in hotels - however I had such a dreadful night’s sleep I probably won’t stay here again. I think it might be more suitable for a younger crowd who are out enjoying London nightlife.
