I had a pleasant stay overall. The room was nice, clean, and comfortable, and the host was very friendly and welcoming. The only downside was the noise from the street and traffic, which made it difficult to sleep well at night.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Arguably the worst hotel I've stayed at. First day one of the two elevators was out of service. The floors of the hallways creaked on every step. The rooms were hot and the window only opened very little. When asked if the window could be opened more the desk said they would send someone to remove the safety lock but nobody ever showed up. The floors also creaked in the room above, so all night and morning you can hear people moving above. The worst part was having a room DIRECTLY above a bowling alley bar. Loud and obnoxious drunks all night till 2 in the morning every night and the security outside did not care at all, no attempts to try and calm or quiet the individuals.

This hotel was just a few blocks from Euston train station. The room was nice and the bed was comfortable. We had breakfast down the road at the Noxy which had good coffee/espresso and breakfast bagels as well as pastries. The next morning we took the train to Heathrow, which took us about 50 minutes, but dropped us off right in our terminal. This was the new Elizabeth Line…lovely, air conditioned train:)

The staff were so kind and helping. I was a bit shocked that there was no air condition in the room. Besides some coffee places no good places to eat near the hotel. You need to walk like 10-15 min to get to the tube stations.

For a central London hotel this is very good value, the staff are very friendly and accommodating and the rooms are a decent size (again, this is London....). Easy to get to by bus or Underground. Nice bar and restaurant in the hotel. Definitely recommend.

We thought the Tavistock gave very good value for money, given that it is a London hotel in walking distance from St Pancras, King’s Cross and Euston stations. From our experience and previous reviews, the rooms are quite small, but adequate. If you are staying in hot weather, be aware that there is no air on in the rooms, though a fan is provided. After reading about this, we requested and were given a first-floor room, rather than risking higher floors, which have been described as hotter still. The breakfast choices were excellent, with a wide range of fresh hot and cold foods available. I’d say that if you can’t find something you like there, it’s you that’s the problem, not the hotel! We were impressed by the willingness of the Hotel to store our luggage both before check-in and after check-out. This was systematically done, with a formal receipt for the bags matched to tags on the bags themselves. Staff were exceptionally accommodating and happy to accede to reasonable requests rather than ‘upsell’ everything; eg after eating out one night we just wanted two soft drinks in the bar to sit and chat - we had a soda water and a blackcurrant squash for £2.90 - in London! Note that there is a water chiller to fill your water bottles for free at the end of the bar, too.

Good hotel

Central Bloomsbury hotel. Good service and lots of staff for check in which was needed as very popular and busy hotel. Nice interior. Rooms clean and comfortable bed. But no air-con and it was incredibly hot and difficult to sleep as a result. The hotel had already put a fan in the room which was a bit helpful. Good breakfast. Close to public transport and the British Museum.
