Stayed here for business for 2 nights. Was in the basement where the cheap rooms are (£40 per night). PROS - So cheap!, ok room, bed, kettle, tv. Good sleep, no excess noise from elsewhere. CONS - So warm! As it is in the basement, it got very hot at night. I suggest a better air con system for guests.... More

Walking distance to Oxford street, Regent's Park, Madamme Taussaud. Easy access to bus stations as well as tube stations to any other destinations in London. Breakfast is very basic, coffee, toast and... More

I have stayed here 3 times, and will return again. If you are on your own, and just need a bed for the night (or 2), for £30 a night, minutes from Oxford St - A bargain! The hotel has been cleaned up since these old reviews, the rooms i've stayed in have wood panel floors now and are generally... More

I booked this hotel for its location, which turned out to be excellent as promised, it's very close to Oxford street. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the hotel was impressive. My room was nicely decorated and clean, I'll be staying here again.
