The hotel is located in a convenient area, not far from Russell Square station for the underground. The rooms are spacious with a good sized double bed but the Wi-Fi needs improving. The service is excellent with staff working from the manager to the housekeepers. However, the dining options are limited and the price is a bit high for the value offered.
