The hotel is a grand old late Victorian building with lots of coloured marbel in the lobby and on the main staircase and is interesting architecturally as well as being comfortable. The single room that I had was small, but clean and comfortable, and oddly the bathroom was nearly as big as the bedroom itself! Overall quite good value for London, not easy to find at the moment!

Handy location for many of London's sights and very close to Russell square underground station.

Rather small single room, but then this is London!

  • Shopping Tip : Turn right out of the hotel and right again at the first street. A little further along there is an M&S food that is 24 hours (good for middle of the night munchies brought on by jet lag!). Beyond that there is a new shopping mall with a number of restaurants and shops and a Sainsbury's
