Top The British Museum Hotel Reviews

Point A London Kings Cross - St Pancras

8/10 Good

"was able to check in early for a £15 fee room was clean and comfortable although tiny kept awake by doors being slammed all night location was good nice stay but overall nearly £200 for a night was a bit steep"

Royal National Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in a great location. It was very very busy,so check in took a while but there were a lot of school trips so I think it was just bad timing. Friendly & helpful staff. Only downside was that the room was a little warm and there was no air conditioning. Would definitely stay again."

STG Hotel London Oxford Street

6/10 Okay

"I have stayed at this hotel several times, and it's been going through upgrades since I believe new ownership; it's now a self-check-in, although there are staff in the reception to help. I was on this trip in one of the older 10th-floor non-refurbished rooms, described as an 'Executive Room'.... well, executive it isn't. Tiny, not the size specified on the website, and with amenities out of the 90s, a broken, empty fridge and a VERY narrow 'compact' double bed. A tiny old TV which would not work. When I arrived, there was a lack of towels and toilet paper, but I sent a WhatsApp message in response to the hotel's check-in WhatsApp, and these were brought up to the room within 30 minutes, which was great, thanks to a fantastic member of the house staff. If you do not have WhatsApp, I think you're snookered, as there is no telephone in the room at all, so the only way to talk to staff is via WhatsApp or to go all the way down to reception. There is also no room service! I have to say, the staff are always fantastic, but for £180 a night... I would hope for more!"

President Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff was very nice and the place was clean with a good dining room. The room was tiny, but the beds were comfortable and the shower was good except that the water comes out all over the floor with just a partial glass side. The hardest thing was the fact that the room was very warm and there was no air-conditioning so we just opened the window and tried to cool it off. It might not be so good in the middle of summer."
