Excellent location for relatively short walks of up to two miles to many of the most interesting and appealing sites and events in London for tourists and business travelers alike. The hotel itself is mid range physical quality, but I had a comfortable room with a king size bed that was quiet. Pricewise, I would say it’s mid range for the area. It would be easy to pay a lot more for something similar in the area, so this unpretentious place near the British Museum is worth considering.

The hotel was in a great location for the reason I was visiting London. The reception staff were very welcoming and efficient. The room that we stayed in was small, which is what we expected but it was hard to move around the room when both of you were there. You couldn’t pull the chair at the mirror out any distance because the bed was in the way. Similar in bathroom - barely any space. But all entirely functional. Overall pretty clean, though the carpet did look a bit grubby unfortunately on closer inspection. Fine for one night.
