Hotel is older and a little worn, clean with pleasant staff. My room had the smallest bathroom I’ve ever seen in a hotel with a tiny shower.

Not what I expected

If the hotel advertises air conditioning, all of the rooms should have it. Beds were uncomfortable and room is a bit worn down. I won't stay at Thistle again

This hotel is steps away to many interesting restaurants, 2 blocks from the British Museum, 1/2 block from the tube and the breakfast is really quite good. The elevator is small and serves 6 floors.
