Ideal location, short walk to Russell Square underground station also bus services at the doorstep. We booked a standard plus room that had recently been renovated very clean and tidy. The room had a walk-in shower perfect for us older folk. King size bed very comfortable. We were located on the 6th floor facing the courtyard so most of the time it was very quiet. All the staff were very friendly and big thanks to the duty manager who allowed us to check-in early after a long flight from Western Australia. If you like to start the day with a cooked breakfast you can`t get better value than here. We will certainly return here if we visit London again.

Extremely small room (for 4 people), with no air conditioning. This meant a very hot room and to cool it down the window needed to be opened (as no other way of cooling it - fans wouldn’t have worked). The hotel is situated on the A4200 - which a very busy road. The road never stops (as you would expect being a main road) - so sleep was interupted by constant party goers way past 3am having a good time, and sirens right through the night. Mattress was extremely thin, meaning uncomfortable sleep. The hotel is the largest in the UK for room numbers (we found out when we were there - 1,600 rooms - and breakfast time was very busy and squashed no matter when you went to eat. Rooms were clean - and that is tribute to the room service team. Stayed 27th to 31st May - the hotel have painters in everywhere - so half the lifts are out of action and the halls stink of paint (no warning prior to booking). Would I ever go back to stay? No. I would book somewhere else.

The hotel was a massive structure and it would be quite easy to get a bit lost finding your way around it! That said, the hotel itself was located in a lovely area and very convenient to public transport, good eating and some lovely parks Two drawbacks of the hotel were the extremely long wait for check in and the fact that they chose one of the busiest weekends in London in the sporting calendar to repaint two of their lifts - considering that each bank of elevators had only 4 (very small) lifts, this was a huge inconvenience, especially if you were staying on one of the higher floors. We stayed on Floor 6 The staff members were extremely friendly and helpful all during our stay The room we were staying in was a Twin Room Plus - not sure what the Plus was for, to be honest. The room was very basic and a bit cramped but the beds were comfortable. There was only one chair in the room which was beside a very small table. The only coffee was two very small sachets of instant coffee and you needed both just to make one mug of coffee. None of the above are huge issues but they were things that we noticed none the less
