Friendliness of the most helpful staff I have ever had in anywhere I have stayed. Nothing was too much trouble no matter how big or small the request. The staff in the Thames Foyer where we had breakfast remembered our names- now that made us feel quite special. A fabulous experience and we will return.

I utilized the Spring Festival holiday to visit the UK with my mom, and we stayed at this hotel. The location of the hotel is excellent, situated right next to Trafalgar Square, with famous landmarks such as the Big Ben and the London Eye just about a 15-minute walk away. The staff were also very nice. I would be willing to stay here again on my next visit. The value for money is particularly good. Some staff members speak Chinese, making it highly recommended for student travelers.

British Museum

As Great Britain’s Empire expanded, so did its cache of material treasures – many of which are on display in this world-class museum. Among its eight million exhibits, you'll find the stunning Elgin Marbles from Greece, the Benin Bronzes and the legendary Rosetta Stone. The Reading Room stands at its heart and is spectacular in size and scope.

    Do not go to this museum thinking you will see everything. Even with close to four hours, we barely scratched the surface--but what you do see is incredible and that means there's always more for a future visit!

    We were overwhelmed by the number of noisy visitors first thing in the morning. It was not a warm day but it was very stuffy and there was no air flow through a lot of the galleries. The information tags on some of the exhibits were poorly placed and very difficult to read unless you were right up close.

    Pre-book a ticket or go on a late opening evening ( The queues can be very long). The Egyptian /Assyrian statues and monuments are spectacular ,asare the controversial Elgin marbles. For intrinsic British exhibits, Roman Britain is fascinating. The reading room is hosting an exhibition at the moment. A very interesting space set in The Great Court. Top tip _ don't try to see everything in one visit. Plan and Prioritize!! Top Tip:

    Too crowded to really see the exhibits.

    Too crowded to really see the exhibits. We booked a slot which I thought was to stagger the influx of people but clearly not. The British museum is world class when it's not too busy. Bring your own food and drinks ,come as early in the day as possible. Try to go to toilets outside of the museum as you could be stuck in a very long queue. There are free lockers for bags etc but again come early as these fill up very quickly, the alternative is the cloakroom which is expensive to leave coats/bags etc.

    It's free, but book an entry time in advance, and be prepared to join a long queue, so arrive well before your time slot. We only had one day, so picked an area or two each. I would love to have a whole week to go every day (and book for every day). Stunning to see in reality items you're familiar with from books! Another tick off the bucket list. You can buy some food there, but there's little choice, so it might be easier to take a packed lunch. Wear easy shoes as there aren't many places to sit down. Leave some time for the bookshops -- both the serious one and the touristy one.

    The breakfast was good. The room was small but it had everything I needed, the bed was comfortable and the neighbourhood pretty quiet. The British Museum and theatres were all within walking distance. It was about a 45min walk to see Big Ben. Upon check out I had a train to catch that didn't leave til the afternoon and I asked to stay in the sitting area. They were more than happy to accommodate me during that time. I would stay here again.

    24 h desk meant I could arrive after late meetings (11pm). Courteous greeting and friendly staff. Breakfast included gluten-free options. Single room was big enough and bed, was comfortable. Location convenient for British Museum, Wellcome Collection, UCL, Birkbeck etc There was a Tube strike during my visit, but hotel is only 10 min walk from Euston and 30 min from Kings Cross/St Pancras.
