Tavistock Hotel

Hotel in great location. Tube station 5min walk but can also walk to many places. The room (327) was not ideal for 2 people. Hardly any wardrobe space. Bathroom was compact. No fridge especially as it was very warm this particular weekend. Could do with some nets on the window as it faced a block of offices & we had to keep the curtains closed, again, not ideal on such a warm weekend. The staff were lovely, both on reception and in the bar. Would stay here again, but on a solo trip as the room was too small for 2 friends.

We received great service from the staff. We had a problem with our room the first night, we arrived late and received a room that was extremely small and next to a night club that played loud music until 2 am. Staff were accommodating and moved us to a much better room the following day. We really appreciated the way they addressed the problem. We had no problems with the room they offered, it was more spacious and quiet. The bathroom was still extremely small, but clean and the hotel is in a great location.

The property is central to most everything you need to go in London. Staff are friendly and ready to assist anytime. Special thanks to their operations mgr for such treatment for my wife's birthday. The room is upgraded and has everything you need. Can't compare to modern ones since this is an older hotel. But all I can say this property is clean. Their breakfast area is great with good choice of food. I recommend adding their breakfast package. All in all, me and my wife were a satisfied customer.

Very convenient location. 5 minutes from Russell square station and 10 minutes from Euston. Check in was easy using the Shackle App which saved a lot of time. Hotel itself is well presented and breakfast is very good with lots of selection. We had a twin room which looked a little tired (scuff marks on the walls and loose floorboards) but it was very clean and the beds were comfy. The facilities were also very good with a smart tv, refreshments and free wifi. We would definitely stay here again.
