Stayed here last week on business & wasn't sure what to expect. It was superb - I was upgraded to an executive room, which is one of the nicest I have stayed in recently. The room had it's own kitchenette as well as a lovely sitting area & a bathroom with a bath(quite rare now) Breakfast was in a small... More

This is a small hotel. I stayed one night after booking the Lancaster Hotel opposite which is a sister hotel. I was upgraded and had a large double comfortable bed with en suite facility. There was a TV with numerous channels. WiFi was available but, depending on your package, could cost extra. There was a safe in the room for... More

I stayed recently for work with a budget of £125 per night. The location is great for our offices in Holborn, the room was large but very cold and smelt a little. The room was also VERY noisy and I was woken up at 5.30. Good value for the money.

Second of Grange's Hotels on Bedford Place I've stayed in, and loved it. Booked in due to snow coming in, and upgraded to small suite on arrival. Really splendid, but don't think you'd get it for £75 in August....

This hotel is in a great but quiet location. The service staff on the reception were all friendly. I am a very light sleeper and rarely sleep the whole night so as we were on the ground floor I did hear the phone ringing in the reception area several times in the night and hear the kitchen staff arriving in...

Been to lots of hotels in London with work but this is my favourite - rooms are quiet, has microwave so I can have healthy hot food whilst I'm away. Tv wasn't working properly - rang down and it was fixed in 5 mins and with a smile! Would recommend and obviously will be back soon too...

A very nice hotel, that was a 5 minute walk from the New London Theatre where we watched Warhorse. Very nicely appointed, obliging staff and although the 'dining area' is small, an excellent breakfast was laid on. Will be returning!

My husband and I stayed at the hotel for one night but it definitely was not worth the price and it definitely is not a luxury hotel but any standard. Our hotel room was in a damp and moldy basement suite. There were 4 holes cut in the tiles on the bathroom floor for some reason unknown to me but... More

I stayed here one weeknight on a business trip before heading to Heathrow airport in the morning. The location is excellent, the immediate area is quiet and safe, and within walking distance (10-15min) of a number of shops, restaurants, and the British museum. Getting to the airport was as easy as walking 5-6 min to the Holburn underground. Trains from... More

Stayed here for two nights on business. Hotel was chosen by my hosts primarily due to its location very close to Russel Square. This is one of those refurbished townhouse "boutique" hotels which have cropped up all over London. My room was good sized, on the basement level. This meant that the only view outside the window was of the... More
