Beautiful, spacious room with high ceilings! Exterior of building is exquisite and property is across Russell Square Park. Located near the British Museum.
The hotel is very well located, in a beautiful historic building, wonderfully restored by the current owners. The public spaces are very nice, although there are not many places to sit in the lobby. The restaurant is exquisite, and the food was very good. The rooms are beautifully restored, but very small. Note also that some "premium" rooms have only one chair and others two, and some have large bathrooms but others have small. If not for these quirks I'd have rated five stars.
Everything was perfect. Great fitness gym. Super clean rooms and bathroom (although the living room/nook couch needs to be replaced - it was old/dirty).
This was a wonderful stay, such a treat! If you want to be looked after, book in here, the staff are fantastic. Morgan was so friendly and helpful at The Terrace, cocktails and food was delicious. Lina Maria looked after all needs at breakfast, with her team. Need to save up for my next stay!

Amazing building, great staff. Restaurant excellent food. Had a great sleep.
The hotel is lovely and the staff are great
Our only slight disappointment was the size of the rooms. The standard rooms are small.
And although beautifully decorated we found ourselves falling over each other
Next time we would upgrade the room choice
Breakfast was fab!
Wonderful stay - the staff was friendly and the hotel was absolutely gorgeous.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Everything about this hotel is done to perfection. It is a beautiful building and the staff are incredible. Our stay was made by their attention to detail.
It’s a corporate hotel. We went for our very special babymoon and told the team and they couldn’t have cared less.
It’s fine - good rooms. Nice staff. But literally no attention to detail or extra effort to make you feel welcome or to make the stay memorable.
Good for work trips but would avoid for leisure.
Nowhere near a 5* room. No storage in bathroom, shower leaked. Great historic building inside communals and outside, ample breakfast with good choice. Decent gym.
Nice bar.
Room service left in corridors continually. Nowhere near 1 hotel, Nobu, The Newman etc etc.
Check in and check out very smooth. My room was nicely appointed, however the shower had some rubber missing on the door so my first day of using the spray wand water covered the floor. The rainfall showerhead is super low and I am 6ft3. Hence the showering experience not pleasant . But otherwise,, great location, professional caring staff, and lovely historic building. Felt very important and well cared for.
