The Thanet Hotel

I used the hotel as it was close to Great Ormond Street hospital. It was a large room with double and 3 single beds. It was disgustingly the was stains all over the carpet walls n ceiling. I refused to use the shower coz the mould that was in it. You could see the stains on the duvet through the duvet cover so I slept in my clothes. Lucky enough my husband decided to stay otherwise I would have left and slept in the hospital waiting area where it was more comfortable.

Do not go there. Dirty, not got water, zero help from staff. I booked for 5 days and left after 2, even if it was not refundable. Really a bad place to stay.

Room not clean, including bathroom. Hair in shower, no plug in sink, clearly not cleaned. Hair on bed, mattress springs prominent , had to cushion with towel under sheet. Table had thick film of dust. TV did not work, broken spring on bedroom door which I assume should be a fire door. No teaspoon for tea. Pillows extremely lumpy.

very good location. behind the building is Main Street. I believe that is bloomsbury wy where there are lots of shops, restaurants. Russell square garden is just cross the street. Walking distance to British museum, Soho square, Oxford St, and two tube stations nearby. It takes 30 mins from airport to Tottenham court station by Elizabeth line.
I don't think Thanet can be ranked 3 star hotel. However, after 3 days stayed over there, the little room with London give me the good memory.

Delivered exactly what i needed. Decent, no frills double room, bathroom, walking distance to London Palladium. Thank you, Thanet.

First place I’ve ever stayed where there is a kettle, but no tea or coffee to make and where there is a tv that doesn’t work and WiFi that decides when it will or where there is evidently a leak because the carpet is sodden and yet the owner chooses not to do anything about it. Astonishing!

The front of house staff were efficient and friendly. I have zero complaints. The issue is the mould and damage in the rooms. Cut my foot on a broken tile in the toilet and didn’t dare shower incase the mould spores touched me. Cheapest in the area for a reason but not sure how am health and safety haven’t closed them down.

Good to be given a family room when travelling solo. However room was tired - threadbare carpet, mouldy shower curtain and no kettle despite their being cups and coffee available to use.

Overall the lobby staff were friendly. No complaints with them what so ever. Very nice people. My room on the other hand had the smallest shower ever. With a shower head that sprayed everywhere but your body. The bed was slanted as sinking in the flood, not very comfy. No AC, but the fan on high speed was so low.
Overall for the price, comfort was bad, cleanliness was poor, and shower/bathroom was very poor.

Very basic and ensure not to get stuck in the annex.

For a last minute booking for 1 adult and 1. Child we got the basement which was huge!

Although a budget hotel the rooms do need updating and fans during summer would be great! TV remote was broken.

Beds were a bit springy but the heavy blankets and pillows allowed for a good nights sleep. Would visit again for sure

The property was filthy with no blinds

Great Location

Check in was fine although was expected to fill out forms with all my details yet again even though this was already provided online.
Actual room was very very dirty,carpets have not been cleaned in a long time,in fact not sure if they have ever used a hoover it was covered in general dirt and dust. Beds were very uncomfy was like sleeping on a brick,pillows were practically nonexistent just lumpy sacks. Was
Provided with 3 dirty cups I milk sachet and a couple of tea/coffee sachets but no kettle.when we asked about a kettle was told they didn’t have any. Was only 4 plug sockets in room,fan was plugged into one and tv in another so 2 sockets between 4 adults to charge phones etc was not happening.
Shower was dirty with mould around the bottom and on arrival there was long back hairs all in the shower.
Not exactly a cheap place to stay. We were in London to celebrate our son’s 18th birthday and for the price we paid I at least expect it to be clean and tidy with simple amenities.
Definitely wouldn’t recommend this place nor would I stay here again

On arrival there where socks left over from a previous stay, and dried urine on the toilet seat. We requested it to be cleaned which it was as we went out.
On the second day, we stayed for a longer sleep, however there was no door hanger saying do not enter. I woke to the cleaner knocking and immediately entering whilst i was naked.

We were extremely disappointed with the Thanet Hotel. The images on Expedia do not come close to what you actually get.

For the price we paid, the room was dirty, you could feel the springs through the mattresses, and I’m seriously worried about bringing bed bugs home, although, fortunately , we didn’t experience any bites.

There were no hand towels and a minimal amount of all-purpose soap was provided - there was no shampoo or body wash. The shower was mouldy.

The staff were indifferent or rude when we interacted with them.

The location was great and the area behind the hotel seems to be home to a number of foxes and birds which was nice.

It was a pretty nice hotel in a good area but the first room I was given was really tiny and way to warm there but they let me change rooms. Shared toilets and showers on the hotel. Literally five minutes away from a tube station which is excellent 👌

Great for my visit needing to be in central london

Just not great. Get what you pay for though

It was affordable and near great transportation but there is no air conditioning and if you can’t walk up several flight of stairs than I don’t recommend unless you can get a room on the ground floor,
