Fab location close to theatres, British museum, Covent Garden, Holborn tube 5 min walk Tottenham Court Road tube less than 10 mins.
Good breakfast and helpful staff.
Room was clean and had a nice ensuite. Air conditioned.
Stayed a few times, always been happy with stay.
Decor is a bit dated. Some of the lights in the room couldn't be turned on individually, one switch turned them all on., but nothing really too negative to say.
La situation géographique de l'hôtel très pratique, le petit déjeuner était copieux et diversifié, le bar était agréable.
Les fenêtres vétustes qui s'ouvraient très mal, la chambre au fond du couloir et la vue sur la cour intérieure avec les énormes systèmes d'aération. Le prix de la chambre qui a évolué trois fois sans explication sur mon séjour de quatre jours.
Location is great. 5min walk to Holborn tube station for the Piccadilly and Central line and Less than 10 mins to Tottenham Court Road for the Northern, Central and Elisabeth lines. Easy walking distance to heart of theatre land and British museum just round the corner.
Breakfast is decent, good range of food on offer.
Staff always helpful and ready to help.
Rooms are clean if a little dated, but have good air conditioning. Beds as are comfy enough.Ensuite is good with a nice rain shower above the bath.
Third time staying at the Thistle Holborn, always been happy with our stay.
Decor may need a bit of updating.
Very good location, comfortable and nice staff. Would return
Main bed was very comfortable, good size room, front desk staff helpful and accommodating, hotel clean and well kept.
Sofa bed was not very comfortable for an adult guest as the mattress was very thin. Was ok for one night.
Hyvä sijainti
Lievästi epäystävällinen/välinpitämätön henkilökunta, perustason huone, jossa äänieristys oli riittämätön sekä kadulle että käytävän suuntaan, aamiaisella ei ollut tarjolla kasviksia
Desayuno no tome. El resto funcionó bien
La atencion al llegar. La persona que se encontraba allí en ese momento se la veía falta de práctica y tardó en encontrar la reserva
The location is amazing! Right around the corner is oxford street, minutes walk from holborn underground statiom that connects you to other parts of the city.
Clean room, very quiet allthough in central location
I will recommend others and will come back again.
There was only one problem with the beds arrangement- when we booked the room, it was specifically written that the room will have one big double bed and one single bed. When we arrived there was a folding sofa bed. Normally we wouldn't say anything but it was really uncomfortable- all 3 of us spent the night sleeping in the double bed. In the next morning we went down to reception and told them about it, they apoligized and said they'll take care of it. When we returned to our room later that day we found out nothig was changed, so there was another night with all of us in one bed.
The next morning we went down again- they said they will make sure it'll get fixed and indeed they changed the sofa bed into a single one, but all of us had to sleep in one bed for 2 out of the 4 nights booked.
El trato del personal del hotel. Muy atentos
Very well situated hotel for access to Covent Garden and Central London. Our room was good for two people but as a family room where the sofa bed was to be used - impossible.
The staff were very friendly and accommodating, though they didn't always carry out requests.
The air conditioning was very effective, which we appreciated.
The sofa bed was old, broken, and uncomfortable, and should not have been offered as a third bed. On the first night, we asked for an extra mattress, but this was not accommodated. On asking a second time, a thin topper was added only mildly improving the situation.
Breakfast was nothing special and given the vicinity to Covent Garden, not worth booking.
L’emplacement, l'accueil, la propreté, le calme dans l’hôtel

We were so pleasantly surprised by our stay at the Thistle Holborn. Everything was fantastic. We can highly recommend the property and would stay here again. The staff was professional, kind, and accommodating.
Upon check-in we luckily were able to upgrade our room from Executive King to a suite. If you have the opportunity to take advantage of this offer as a group of three, I cannot recommend it enough. I did find that they description of the Executive King room on booking.com to be inaccurate and I hope it has been corrected. When booking (for three), the Executive King said the room had a queen and a twin bed. After receiving the offer to upgrade, I contacted the hotel to confirm the layout of the Executive King room and was told that actually that room has a King bed and an extra bed (assume a cot) can be brought in, if available. This obviously would not have worked for us with three grown adults.
The suite was perfect and provided so much room which was a pleasant surprise in a hotel in the center of London. The room had a King bed and a sofa bed in an adjoining room/space (no door). The extra space gave us plenty of room for suitcases and we did not feel cramped in any way.
As far as amenities, a kettle is available in addition to the coffee machine, with a selection of teas, milk, and even shortbread. The mini bar contained complimentary sodas, beer, and G&T.
Our room was toward the back of the property and very quiet. You are two blocks from the British Museum, 10 minutes from Covent Garden, and 10-15 minutes from Oxford High Street shopping, yet far enough away from the crowds. The tube at Holbern station is maybe 8 minutes walk. You can take the Picadilly Line direct from/to LHR (or other locations around the city) and save yourself a lot of money.
We were highly impressed with the property, so for this section I have to be very picky. Be aware of the positioning of the nozzle in the shower. There is only a half shower "door" so it can be very easy for water to spray outside of the shower onto the floor. You will want to be careful so you do not make a mess and slip. There is a handle in the shower which is very useful, also because this is a tub/shower and it is a pretty high tub, so a significant step up/over depending on your mobility. I am not sure if there are accessible rooms.
Following up on mobility, be aware that there are 4-5 steps up to the front door of the hotel. There is a call button you can press for access if you need help with baggage, but I am not sure how wheelchair/reduced mobility access is addressed. You should check with the hotel ahead of time.
Our first day/evening after arrival, housekeeping entered our room after only a quick rap on the door. The first time to deliver towels we requested and the second time to apparently check if we needed anything; however, they did not wait for anyone to respond and just entered immediately with their key. The second time, we were all in bed asleep (jet lag), and it was quite disconcerting to have someone enter our room unrequested when we were half asleep.
