A great location with lots of restaurants onsite and nearby

My daughter and I stayed here for our four days in London. We had an afternoon tea, went to three separate theatre shows and saw all the sites. The hotel had incredibly easy access to all these things by walking or via metro. There was three metro stations within a short walking distance. The room was clean, spacious and quiet. We would recommend to stay here and hope to return if we are back in London!

nice hotel in a good location. Room was a little noisey as could hear everything on the street but otherwise would stay again

Ideally situated, with Russell Square minutes away

Great location, ideal for what we wanted. Parking a big expensive but hard to find anywhere so good with parking under the building. Beds were so comfortable, a real treat. Everything just worked for us and no worries about coming back late.

mother daughter excursion

I came from the USA to the UK and wanted a hotel ten minutes from the theatre district and this hotel popped up. The staff was knowledgeable ; helpful and the facilities were very clean. The restaurant owned by hotel was close & food was yummy. I will recommend this hotel. This hotel met all of my needs as a tourist.

The shower wasn’t good, it went from boiling hot to freezing cold in seconds, very unsatisfactory. Everything else was fine

This hotel is comfortable, clean and reasonably priced. Ideally located 2 minute walk to the tube. Its a huge hotel room was nice, had a triple room. Only slight negative the beds were single beds, they looked like they were doubles in the photos so felt a little cheated. Didnt eat at the hotel so cannot comment on the food or drinks.

Good. Has a triple room which is what we wanted.

Liked nearness to Euston & underground stations,efficient check-in & out, fairly - priced room which was very adequate in size very clean & beds were so comfortable I would stay here again,thank you

If you want a place to sleep and nothing much more than it’s fine!! There a nice pub but does close at 11pm mid week!! Breakfast is quite nice! I guess it’s good value for money!

the 7 floor room windows did not shut correctly so there was a lot of wind noise.

Perfect for the theatre

Perfect location from the train station and to the theatre which is why we were there. Reasonably priced Clean and tidy Lovely bar underneath

I will return

Second stay in this hotel and I will be back. Mainly because its clean, feels safe and a totally fantastic location. 5 mins walk from Russell Square Tube. Take ear plugs, its a City location! Had the breakfast this time and will select that on my next visit too. Must add all staff are super nice, helpful and friendly.

Really nice hotel very reasonable price and great breakfast

My room has a back to back door to other room and you can hear the conversation from other room so they can hear our conversations as well. Overall hotel is very clean and comfortable.

Very good experience even if the room needed ma upgrade. Jannai was amazing and treated us very well. The hotel’s location was Perfect for going around London!!!

A good stay.

Although very busy when we were there, the service was very good throughout. The staff were friendly and helpful and the room was clean and warm in January.

Beautiful room! Great location. Friendly staff.

The staff are lovely and very polite. The room was very clean and had everything that we needed.

Comfortable and convenient.

Everything was great apart from the noise outside. The window to the street may aswell of not been there and people in the corridor sounded like they were in the room.

Basic but clean

Good hotel

Amazing location for the price of the hotel . Beds are very comfortable. Rooms are not massive but not to small. It’s very quiet considering the size of the hotel. My only negative would be the shower isn’t great but your able to run a bath fast. I would recommend this hotel and would happily stay again !

Efficient service. Excellent breakfast

finally a good hotel in london great location and great price

Good location, lovely room. Would stay here again.

Great

I

Good size room for a family of 4. Close to British museum transport connections and local supermarkets.

The opportunity for luggage storage on day of arrival and departure was really handy. The hotel was huge, and understandably busy, being located close to many attractions.

Great Value Hotel

This hotel way surpassed my expectations for the price paid. It was clean and well maintained and a great location in London. Really comfortable stay. It was a 1 night, late booking in December in London for single occupancy and was cheap compared to lots of other hotels in the area. It was a small room for 1 with a single bed but absolutely perfect. I'd definitely return. 3 of my colleagues also booked the same and were all equally impressed by this hotel. A great find.

The rooms were clean, close to public transportation

Berry good

Overall ok 4/5

Cost effective stay. Overall good. Thankful for easy check-in & out, clear room, good heating. Downside is the poor sound isolation of window, which let all squishy sounds of cars&busses of a busy road in rainy day. Definitely needed a old &damaged frame and silicone repair of the window edges to give a bit more isolation.

Would definitely stay here again

We, a family of three, stayed at Royal National Hotel during the first week of November and it was a delightful experience overall. I loved the location, right next to Russel Square Subway(tube) station with very nice options for all kinds of food and shopping. The room I selected from the app was good but there was an issue with the bed and the issue was that the two double beds were placed side-by-side but not joined so they were coming apart at night and as a family with a small child we wanted to have one bed instead. I went to the customer service desk and the gentleman named Jannai was EXTREMELY helpful and generous to understand the problem and changed the room for us. Thank you Jannai! Overall, the room was spacious, clean and had all the amenities we wanted. The location, again, was fantastic and all the major attractions can easily be accessed via subway and the bus. If i visit London again, I would be happy to stay at this hotel.

The property was clean and the surrounding area felt safe. The hotel itself is large with very easy check in. Overall, would stay here again!

Very noisy

We tried so many times to work with the property to change the dates related to our stay but they just wouldn't budge and had to pay an extra night. At the end, I don't think this hotel values customer service. From a room perspective, the first night (extra night we paid) the room was outdated and not too clean. They moved the family to a new room the next day which was better.

Disappointing

I don't think we'll be staying here again. Negatives: there were some issues with the bathroom – the hot tap in the sink had zero pressure so you had to turn the tap several times to get a weak stream of water. There was an unhygienic shower curtain in the bath which clung to you while you were trying to have a shower. I'm surprised they didn't think to install a shower screen. We could constantly hear the people next door or upstairs as the walls didn't seem very thick. On another note in the entire room there were only two power points, one of which was used by the kettle. This meant charging phones and laptops etc. was very difficult. Positives: the breakfast was quite good with a hot buffet selection and the usual pastries, toast and cheeses and ham.

Easy access and good food options around

Very friendly staff, happy to help. Nice modern rooms with up to date facilities and technology.

It took half an hour to check in. Plenty of smiley reception staff, staring blankly at screens, achieving very little. Our room and surrounding corridors stank of frying onions (coming up through the fire escape). Otherwise, the room was comfortable. On the morning of departure, it took over 10 minutes to reach the ground floor, due to malfunctioning lifts - with the only alternative being an alarmed fire escape. All these points were mentioned to the receptionist upon checkout. The only reaction was “sorry” and another nice smile. Overall: a poor experience.

Location is good. But services are bad

Affordable

Room was clean comfortable but small it did the job required and a bit warm overnight The beds were comfortable Bathroom facilities were great. Would stop there again.

Shabby and old

Really shabby hotel, shower barely worked and couldn’t plug a lap top in to charge as socket position was so low. I tried to report the issue but the queue at reception was so long I had to leave. Window in room was old and had mould.

Rooms have been decorated nicely since I last stayed a couple of things to complain one of my suitcases was opened in room nothing taken but someone opened it and check in time loads of people waiting to check in and only one person behind reception it’s a very busy hotel something wrong somewhere I had to complain and two more people came out

Property was at the perfect location but there was too much noise on our floor in the night. There was a foul smell in the bathroom which was a put off but rest everything was perfect. Room was clean and nicely done.

OK, once in 30 years is about right.

Haven't stayed here since 1996 on a Uni Field Trip, felt like an appropriate amount of time. It's OK, good location, bed was comfy and the room was clean. Decor is 1990s (not sure it changed since I was there last), breakfast wasn't bad, but field kitchen standard. Check-in was atrocious, we were all guided into lines which then got served faster than those of us who had queued for 30 minutes (this is the UK, we DO queuing here), which was frustrating. Staff were friendly though, despite angry guests waiting for their rooms.

The housekeeping service was great. The bed was comfortable. The room was dated. Bathroom sink has two separate faucets (one for cold and one for hot) making it difficult to wash. The water presurre in the shower was non exustent. Hotel should look into modernizing its washroom.

Rooms are pretty small. Somewhat expected in London however even by this standard the room was a little boxy. The desk was comparable to a shelf. There was a significant amount of noise from the courtyard and the rooms were poorly insulated. I was able to keenly engage in an argument going on in the neighbouring room which kept me up somewhat. The positives were the cleanliness of the room and the state of the bathroom.

Having stayed a few times this will be the last time I stay at this hotel. The queue to check in was ridiculously long; clearly not enough staff working. And it’s looking very tired now. No a/c in rooms, decor shabby and rooms and bathrooms in desperate need of a makeover

Sraff are really friendly and accommodating. Nice and clean place.

Pleasantly Surprised

This hotel exceeded my expectations. It was in a great location! The room was quiet, comfortable, and clean. The customer service was top notch as every staff person we encountered was helpful. I will definitely stay here again because we had such an enjoyable experience.

Clean, comfortable, ideal for a budget hotel stay. Room was quiet and of a good standard.

Spent a pleasant 2 nights in a twin room. enough room for comfort. Lovely large shower. Very clean room & bathroom. I asked for a quiet room & that's what l received. Not a good idea to have the spare toilet room at floor level next to toilet for obvious reasons! Could do with 2 bedside tables, was a bit squashed with 2 people using a small bedside table. Very helpful polite staff About 10 mins walk from Euston train Station. Buses/underground into or fairly close to Camden Market & other areas. Would return again if in the area.

Great hotel in a good location.

Hotel and staff are lovely and helpful. Rooms clean and spacious. Lovely shower. Only downside was that then room looked out to a loud courtyard and the room was boiling meaning I couldn’t open the window as it disturbed my sleep. Which is why I did not give 5 stars. 5 minutes from the tube station and 20 minute walk to Covent Garden.

Happy Stay

There are over 400 rooms in the hotel and check-in took a bit of time was expected. The bathroom is very big and clean. The downside was room was not bright enough and the twin single beds were very narrow.

Queues long for check in. Maintenance man working in the room when we arrived, 10 minutes later get a phone call from reception saying we need to move room. Helped to the new room by staff but it was smaller than the one we’d first been given, not in as good condition either. Only one power point in the room at the side of the kettle, not ideal for two guests staying 3 days.

Good walking area.

Just 15 min walk from Euston, clean room, friendly staff, could not fault our stay. Had tickets to the theatre and it was walking distance to Somerset House, Covent Garden and theatre. Perfect!

Great location - but bring your ear plugs!

Great location. Clean & friendly. The one thing that spoils this hotel is the lack of double glazing so you can hear SO much noise from outside - traffic, people talking in the street, tuk-tuk music. Ear plugs are essential!

Fantastic hotel

Fantastic stay at this hotel, beds were comfy and the rooms were clean and perfect for us as we was out most of the day. The bathroom was nice to. The reception staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. Would recommend this hotel stay and will definitely be back!

Good place to stay

Pleasant stay, basic for what you need. Rooms were a little dated and some places weren’t as clean as we would’ve expected but it was good for what we paid.

I struggle after back surgery. One of the concierge staff saw I was in pain whilst trying to get hold of a taxi for me. He went and found a chair for me and sorted the cab and then helped me in. Above and beyond service where all the staff are lovely

Reasonably priced, clean and comfortable. We had a triple room with 3 single beds, no put up beds. So much more comfortable for us. Happy to recommend.

Generally, it’s good, since I have a very nice sleep every day after a comfortable shower. The only thing which is not perfect is that my room is not very new this time. Anyways, it’s clean.

The staff on the reception desk were so helpful and friendly. I stayed with my Mum who has mobility issues and they couldn't have been more helpful. They changed our room without a fuss and found us somewhere more suitable. The room has everything we needed and tea making facilities too. Breakfast was great. Good selection of hot food and continental too. We used this hotel as we were seeing a show. So close to Russel Square underground station and bus routes.

The Royal National is conviently located near to Kings Cross and Euston and has parking at a sensible price for London, although spaces are limited and not reservable. The hotel itself is a large conference style hotel. The service on the front desk was good and staff were helpful. The standard room was compact and a little tired but the bed and pillows were really comfortable. The breakfast is self service and is good with many options. Overall our stay was good and the room rate sensible for London. I wouldn't hesitate in booking it again.

Never go to a hotel that there is no chairs at the lobby . Hotel is too old and needs renovation.

It was extremely noisy. Could hear the people on both sides and above our room and those walking down the hall from the elevator. The shower was not fully closed in so the entire bathroom floor had to be mopped up after showers. No fan or ventilation in the bathrooms either so room got very humid and stuffy.

Very good

Myself and 2 girl friends shared a triple room for a weekend shopping in London cant fault anything apart from no lock on bathroom door. 2min walk to nearest tube at Russell square

All good bar the street noise

Overall most things about my stay were very good. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The check-in and check-out process was swift and friendly. I really enjoyed the burger I had for dinner at the London Pub located in the same building. The breakfast was very decent and hearty with a varied choice for all tastes. The room had been recently renovated, and the bedding was comfy. The only gripe I have was that my room faced onto a main street. Normally not a problem. I found that the window was very poor at keeping out noise. The location seemed to have police cars / ambulances passing every few minutes at worst. And this went on through the evening and night. So, sleep was poor. Staying here again, I would insist on a room that was on the inner court yard if possible. Apart from that excellent value, great location and easily accessible to other areas of London.

Good

There were no seats in the lobby for people to sit , if need be. There is no shop for gifts. There was no ice machine on my floor. There was no ice bucket or mini fridge in the room. All our food and drinks were left at room temperature. There was no microwave to heat up a small meal. The was wwwwaaaayyyy too expensive!!! If I park my car for 24hrs. I should be able to go in and out without being charged extra fees each time. The breakfast was very very disappointing! Everyone doesn't eat PORK! Its not fair to go so cheap that the customer feels lied to! I thought i was going to have at least 1 meat option to manage, but no. I only had bread and butter for breakfast my entire stay! But this was one of the reasons i chose this hotel and they seriously disappointed me and my 2 guests. Its not ok! PLEASE DO BETTER. Thanks alot!

Worth it if you get a good deal

Great price for the location and room. We stayed in one of the top floors and the room was well kept and comfortable. Decoration is lacking (it’s very plain) but that’s not why we picked this hotel. The location is ideal for visiting London by foot. There is a 24h Tesco 2 mins away. The luggage drop off service is also very handy and well organised. If you get a good deal, I would definitely recommend booking this place. Saw some bad experiences in the reviews but everything went super smoothly for us.

Good value

Overall a nice property offering solid value. I would consider staying here again.

Staff are great

The cost of room was expensive. This excluded breakfast. The hotel was extremely busy with multiple crowds of foreign tourists. Waited ages for a lift that had room to enter as there were so many suitcases in the lifts. Room was clean and tidy with all required facilities. I will never stay there again

Great location and comfortable staying at the hotel.

First class service

Excellent service, the reception staff went above and beyond to find us an early room. Breakfast was superb and the breakfast staff were super efficient. The hotel is extremely clean. Situated in an excellent part of London. We will definitely be back. Thank you for an excellent stay.

Close to St Pancras station.

Hotel manager was extremely helpful and personable. I had my own issues with water and general questions about how to use the amenities and she was a doll.

Was ok, no sound proofing from corridor or from the street, busy area so quite noisey

All fine with bed, shower etc but the windows are appalling, they don’t shut properly so all the noise echoing round the courtyard gets into the room

Great location easy short walk to the British museum and restaurants

The hotel is very central, close to Russell Square tube station. The hotel is extremely large but our room was clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. We used the luggage room to store our luggage after check out until we were ready to catch our train home.

Great stay at Royal national hotel, clean, comfortable beds, quick check in and fast check out.

Excellent stay - will be returning!

After seeing less than favourable reviews i was aprehensive, however I can tell you my experience was a good one! After arriving from Euston I was aware I could leave my luggage free of charrge at the hotel, I went to reception to see where i did this and i checked in - luckily my room was available and i was able to go straight to my room. The room was spotless and the bed was super comfortable. The lead in room is on the road side - the upgraded room type overlooks the quieter courtyard. I was on the 6th floor and the road noise really wasnt an issue - do take earplugs if you are a light sleeper as the double glazing isnt great. We went room only so cannot comment on the breakfast - didnt hear any complaints through. Check in and check out was easy and quick, i will be coming back the the Royal National as the location is spot on - 5 mins walk from Euston, 5 mins to the British Museum, 2 mins from Russell Square tube station, lots of places to eat on this road too. Overall a great stay!

So noisy, you hear voice from another room.

Hotel dated , heating could not be adjusted . Very loud as directly above bar . Very unpleasant hotel

I like that its. Ten min walk from st pancras and clean nice rooms x

Brilliant hotel. We hope to be back soon!

Best hotel at an amazing price. Would highly recommend it. Brilliant location, room and staff. I can not fault the hotel! It really made the holiday and I would Recommend it without hesitation. In fact I’m considering rebooking another london visit there as it was such a lovely stay

Perfect location!!!! Only negative feedback would be the walls are very very thin so you can hear every noise from the corridor and rooms next door

Comfortable hotel

Great place to stay before my partner and I’s Contiki! The pizza at the adjoining restaurant was nice and the hotel room was very comfortable. I liked the small snack/drink shop in the hotel lobby as it was convenient. Good location

Terrible smell in room

Very slow check- in, allow extra time for this. Terrible smell in the room, had a triple and due to availability couldn’t be moved. Had to get a fan and leave window open to try and remove. Stale musty smell was awful, such a shame otherwise this would have been a good stay

Great stay, well priced and, placed with tube access to Piccadilly line.

We will return, its great

Excellent from check in to our exit. Very efficient on the desk and a warm welcome as we entered the building (which is huge, biggest ive stayed in). Twin bed room looked new! New bathroom, carpets, beds. Great shower that stayed at a constant heat. Good size room. Stayed for two nights. Take earplugs, the location is amazing but its noisy in the center of London. Didn't try the breakfast but it is available. We will definitely be back

Good as the bed were comfy and clean. We really enjoy the sleep! However it was too noisy in the room as the car kept making sound.

Thanks!
