Top Russell Square Hotel Reviews

Royal National Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Room was clean but small, and the building is massive, loud and packed with people. Room comes with complimentary ear plugs…"

Bedford Hotel

8/10 Good

"We were in a room that had been renovated, so did not have many outlets. I was able to get an extension cord to use at the bedside. There was room for a small chair in addition to the one near the vanity, but no chair, nor was there a second luggage rack. With twin beds, there are usually two people, so someone had to find an alternative for the suitcase and sit on a bed. The room faced the street, which was very noisy. There was a small fan to move air, but to be comfortable, the window needed to be open. Thus, the room experience was not inviting. Even a less bland wall color and perhaps some framed art, would have made things look more appealing."

Strand Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is centrally located close to many of the main tourist attractions and the theatre district. All within walking distance. Booked a Superior Single room. Room was a decent size and had the usual amenities, iron, coffee maker, etc. No fridge or microwave. The bed is comfortable and the linen is soft. Bathroom just had a shower, no tub and toiletries were supplied. There is no bathroom door. The rooms don't have a standard layout so you could be staring straight into the bathroom from your bed. Finding your room was a challenge as the floors are a rabbit's warren of hallways and the room #s weren't laid out in a logical pattern. There is an digital sign at the elevator where you put in your room # and it shows you how to get to it. Daily housekeeping is provided but if you opt not to have this, you get a coupon for £7 off the breakfast buffet. They will then only clean your room every 4 days. The breakfast buffet has a good selection of hot and cold items. If paid the night before it's £15, otherwise it's £20 at the door. Traveled to Edinburgh for a few days and was able to store my larger suitcase while I was away until I returned for my last nights in London. I was very pleased with my stay and would book here again. Would recommend."

Zedwell Underground Hotel Tottenham Court Road

2/10 Terrible

"The whole hotel smelled like doo doo. We were on the -5 floor, the staff kindly tried to help and move us to -4, it got better but after a few hours the smell was absolutely diabolical. They really need to sort this. Never staying there ever again."

President Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Room is small no space to keep the luggage. No body lotion found. Found dust around door corne. The shower area is quite small. Water leaks out of the shower area due to an inadequate shower screen. There is no power outlet near the bed for charging mobile devices. Overall experience is not that bad for couple of nights not great but ok."
