The room was dirty bed had hair and stains in it , the shower was poor and nearly flooded the bathroom. Didnt off any soaps pr anything and the noise from outside made it unbearable to sleep. The no lift access especially with heavy luggage was not ideal

Budget hotel in need of upgrade and refit. Large bedroom with wooden floor. Partially partitioned to allow for storage by operators. Flimsy doors key operated self locking, so rember your key when traveling to the bathroom. No services in the room. TV and kettle, the little basket offering tea, coffee or milk was empty. WiFi is extra.... The bathroom is at the very bottom of the hotel. Seperate shower room to toilet. Hostal may have offered more quality

The bed sheets were clean. There the compliments end. Missing glass holder in bathroom. Missing towel rail in bathroom. No plug in sink. Huge crack and leak in sink. Bathroom fan not working. Showere dirty. Net curtsins disguisting. Stains on carpet. No breakfast available. Bedside light not working. Hair dryer wiring dodgy. Room not refreshed at all during our four day stay.

We got what we paid for but seriously this place needs a lot of renovating. Seemed a safe area and close to the train station.

In the app or online (even in the welcome book! In the room) It said breakfast included. However this wasnt correct. Also the TV remote on off button needs attention. And toilet seat needs securing. All in all though its a lovely place with friendly people and a nice atmosphere so I enjoyed my visit.

We just needed a room to sleep in after theatre trip so this did the job. The rooms are dated but were clean and spacious. One night here was fine. Wouldn’t stay longer than that. Good location by Holborn station. Walkable to Covent Garden’s. So suited us. Cheap and easy.

The place is in disrepair. The floors are uneven and creek, the carpets have mould. It takes it’s 2 star rating very seriously.

To be honest - it's a room with a relatively comfortable bed and a really SMALL bathroom, nice hot water and the toilet worked. But we didn't have any cleaning done in the room during our three days stay, not even trash cans changed. The toilet was that close to the wall and the very solid toilet paper holder that it scratched one of us on the upper arm when sitting down. The last morning we discovered a broken spring in the mattress which might have been the reason behind one of us not having the best sleep. Draining in the shower was somewhat slow so you jumped around in your used bathing water. Tiny, small TV with just a few working channels and a terrible sound. Friendly staff though - the downsides of the room was not that serious that we wanted to make the hotel aware of it but definitely not having us want to book a room here again. Charming hotel, but somewhat work down and not kept up to date.

Decent rooms with the affordable price in Central London and the staff were good. I didn't have the bed bug problem as someone said in the review comments. Had good sleep and it is close to British Museum.

A unique experience living in an old building turned hotel. The staircase to our room was narrow and winding. The wooden floor made creaking sound and some parts of the carpet were torn with nails protruding. Despite the creaking floor, the beds and linen were clean and comfortable. Suitable for short stay and backpackers.

Room very basic An needs totally updating, windows old an ready to fallout so traffic noise was bad. Tv was tiny, coffee and tea basic. Beds were clean and comfortable. Didn’t see any staff just given key and left to it. Close to a lot of places an buses and tubes. Ideal for a one night stay anything else id look elsewhere. £152 for a night with no breakfast was really expensive for the conditions of the room.

Perfect location. Old hotel but it’s good enough for a few days. Got clean towels when we asked for it. Not really any complains.

Great little hotel in central London. As other people mention it’s not quite the ritz , but it’s very good for the price. A little run down, but if you are spending your day out in London you won’t really mind. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would stay again.

I usually stay at business class hotels but on this trip opted to save some money and selected this property. My ratings do not give them a break for being a discount property. This is a cute little hotel. I had a single room and while it was small it was warm, safe and comfortable. If you want more go stay at the Ritz. The staff was very helpful and eager to please. They know they need to work hard in a competitive market. If I were budget traveling I would stay there again.

The hotel is in a great location but it rather run down. It could do with some love but could be a fantastic place. The TV is so small it might as well be none existant. The cups are all miss matching. The shower could do with a de-scale and some support under the basin. The beds are comfortable and we did have a good nights sleep.

Mould in the bathroom, and on the shower curtain. Dirty glasses and cups. Lights not working.

No Sleep Due to people arguing at 2 in the morning right outside my room. Doors banging during the night that could have soft closers added tot them to prevent this

Simple hotel, not too many bells and whistles. Just a friendly hotel conveniently close to St Pancras.

Excellent location. Big window with nice view on green backyard. Was nice to be able to leave our luggage on departureday. But hygiëne, especially in the shower was terrible. Was also disappointed to learn breakfast was not included, whereas Expedia showed reviews with breakfast, and I also had used the breakfast filter in the search options. For reference, we stayed from 15-19 Octobre 2023, 138 pound per night.

The Thanet is exactly what it advertises itself. It is a 3 star with no elevator and 4 floors of rooms. The rooms were transformed into ensuite which means the bathrooms are very small. It is conveniently located to London, especially the West End, the British Museum and Covent Garden. The closest Tube station is Holburn. There is no daily maid service, like much of England and also no top sheet, again quite common in England these days.

Réception desk in separate building. Room was good size but bedding sparse. Bathroom not clean , light permanently on , both taps dripping, wall on right of basin dirty Package from shampoo had fallen into the toilet and not removed by cleaners TV remote control had no batteries so not possible to use TV.

Oct 2023

Paid of the Thanet Hotel NOT the annex which is cheaper. However, we were put in the annex anyway. Stairs were awful, like a car park etc. Our room I actually can't describe how bad it was for £150! Curtains falling down, bathroom door didn't shut. Had one random table with stains and a chair that was falling apart. Half the wall was cream, half yellow. Cracks and damp in the ceiling. Honestly, I never leave reviews. I often think well we will be okay, but honestly, please don't stay here. Pay a bit more and stay somewhere safe, comfortable and clean. They should be ashamed of themselves.

A bit concerned about the shower and drainage seems like an ideal spot for mould. The staff were wonderful but there were no food outlets or restaurants close by.

Great location, dated building. My stay was comfortable, there were issues which I dealt with in reception. It is by no means perfect but if you want to stay in central London on a budget its as good as any.

Dirty, no air conditioning, Little room in the basement with a broken mirror. I've paid for a private bathroom in the room but I had a shared One. Awful everything.
