Bie placé mais mauvais rapport qualité prix
Pros:

Le seul interet est la localisation au calme et proche des principaux lieux de visites à pied MAIS chambre familiale au sous sol donc aucune vue, fenêtre principale bloquée donc impossible d'aérer et pas de doubles rideaux donc réveil au lever du soleil (5/6h00). Pression d'eau insuffisante dans la salle de bain et canapé lit TRES inconfortable, complètement usé. Inconcevable que ce type d'hôtel propose encore ce genre d'équipement vétuste malgré tous les commentaires négatifs.
Petit déjeuner dans le bâtiment mitoyen à 10m mais beaucoup trop cher pour la qualité proposée et personnel peu avenant.

Cons:

Aucune vue à l'extérieur, fenêtre principale bloquée et pas de doubles rideaux donc réveil au lever du soleil (5/6h00). Pression d'eau insuffisante (douche et wc) literie très dure et canapé lit TRES inconfortable, complètement usé. Inconcevable de proposer ce genre d'équipement vétuste malgré tous les commentaires négatifs...
Petit déjeuner buffet trop cher à 19£/personne avec tres peu de choix (2 jus, 2 fruits frais, 2 céréales, œufs durs et charcuterie industrielle, toast, aucune pâtisserie ni cake ni pain frais, thé et café filtre) !!!Petit déjeuner anglais en option à 25£ (non en buffet). Soit 50£ pour 2 personnes, juste hors de prix. Je ne recommande pas.

Toplocatie, centraal en rustig
Pros:

Ideale locatie in London. Vlakbij British museum, ook dichtbij bijvoorbeeld de theaters van West End (ongeveer 20 min stappen) en Oxford Street, Outernet en Covent Garden. Ook handig is de metro van Holborn (central line) op 6 minuten wandelen. Bovendien ook rustig 's avonds en 's nachts, dus ideaal om te slapen. Het is een klassiek, ouder hotel, maar met typisch Britse charme. De badkamer was groot en heel proper. Ook het personeel was heel vriendelijk. Na het uitchecken konden we ook onze bagage nog even in het hotel achterlaten.
