The hotel is situated in a serene area of London with a lovely garden view, ideal for those seeking tranquility. The rooms, although charming with an old wooden window, allow drafts to seep in through the cracks which could be uncomfortable. The service was satisfactory, including prompt housekeeping services and a welcome drink. The location is convenient, close to public transport options and within walking distance of major tourist attractions. The dining experience, with an early time slot and featuring homemade yogurt, adds a homely touch to the stay.

The hotel is located in front of a private garden, offering a peaceful setting. The rooms are equipped with cheap modern furniture and tea/coffee making facilities, but the lack of blinds and a half-broken wooden window allowing wind in through the cracks may impact comfort. The service includes housekeeping and a welcome drink, adding a nice touch to the stay. The hotel is situated in a very peaceful area, providing a quiet ambiance amidst green surroundings. Dining options are included, serving assorted muffins. Overall, the facilities are satisfactory, though improvements could enhance the stay. The value for money is reasonable considering the provided amenities.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with a lovely view of the park opposite. The modern bathroom and excellent shower added to the convenience. The service was top-notch, with attentive housekeeping and a nice welcome drink. The location was perfect for me, situated in a quiet square away from the busy West End but still close to Russell Square tube station and within walking distance from Euston. The hotel's beautiful setting in front of a private garden made it a peaceful retreat in the city. Dining included some sweet biscuits, adding a nice touch to my experience. Overall, a great value for the money with a few minor downsides.
