ALERT: BEDBUGS The hotel is well located, a few steps from Tottenham Court Road, which connect three metro lines in the middle of London. It's an underground hotel with (evidently) no window and very, very basic rooms that do the job. However, the amount of noise is insane. It seems the structure is not well isolated and you can hear what I guess is the water coming down from the pipes behind the walls. On top of that, the last day of our 4-day stay we saw bedbugs in one of our beds. My wife had several bites during the trip but didn’t realize why until we saw them—at least three, probably more. We informed the management and later at home we wrote to the hotel asking for a reimburse but didn't even receive any reply from them. We had to throw away a lot of our clothes and suitcases, and once we got home, we had to pay for a pest control inspection just in case. What seemed like a regular (because it was not necessarily cheap) stay turned into an expensive and stressful one. We contacted the hotel but never got a reply. We really regret staying here and wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

Truly terrible.

This is one of the worst hotels i’ve been to in a long time. There isn’t a chair, a table, or a closet on your room. The bed is uncomfortable. There are no amenities. Also, it feels really creepy and the staff surely didn’t help with that. This is a hostel, not a hotel. Also, I could hear the trains all night next to me. The staff were not friendly and did not make me feel great about sleeping in a dungeon. I felt borderline creeped out. Also, i arrived 45 min before check in. They told me I had to pay 50 pounds to check in early or 15 pounds PER piece of luggage to store it for 45 min. Even my small shopping bag! They charged me the same to store it for an hour post check out which is so early at 10am! I hate this hotel.

Avoid this hotel if you're expecting basic amenities. Despite charging upwards of £200 per night, this hotel lacks essential furnishings such as a chair, table, wardrobe, hair dryer, and iron. The room includes only two beds, four bath towels, and one small towel—nothing more. There are additional charges for early check-in, late check-out, and even luggage storage. One major concern is the inconsistent fee waivers, which appear to be applied based on nationality or race. This is deeply troubling and reflects poorly on the management. The bathroom design is also impractical—no sliding doors mean water easily spills onto the floor, creating a mess. The only notable feature is its underground setting, which might appeal to some seeking a unique experience. Otherwise, it's hard to justify the cost or the lack of hospitality

We arrived early so decided to go to drop the bags off at the hotel since we were too early for check in. We got told we were unable to check in early however the group of girls next to us just got checked in and let to their rooms. After asking if i could leave the bag at the hotel until we checked in I got told there was a £15 charge just to leave a bag in a room which i found completely ridiculous and if i knew this i probably would not have booked this hotel as it is an absolute scam and does not state this anywhere in the description. We came to check in and there was flies in my sink in the bathroom and on the roof so went up to reception and they did give me a different room no hassle but they did not seem bothered at all about it nor an apology. I work in a hotel and stayed in many and never once have i come across fees to leave your bag somewhere or the staff to seem so unbothered by a complaint. However the rooms are just as shown and bed is very comfortable. There is not much noise or bother when your in the room. There are plugs right above the bed which is very handy and a light switch. I would probably not stay here again just because of the reasons stated above and for £600 for 2 nights i would expect a little bit more friendliness and consideration when complaints are brought up.

Terrible design. The low, futon style bed was bad enough, but the lack of a chair or wardrobe of set of draws meant I had my bag on the floor with no where to put anything. Actually felt I was living on the floor. Bed never made - is this a Zedwell thing? Won’t be booking this property, or indeed, Zedwell hotels again.

July 2025 no a/c and bed bugs

Had 2 rooms for 3 nights. One room the A/C didn’t work, and the other had bed bugs. I spoke to 3 different managers on duty and best they would do was put on clean sheets in one room and a fan in the other. Asked to at minimum comp my $40 for early check in that was charged, but nothing. Other than the location being great, nothing else is worth the stay. I’ve never left a negative review but felt this one was necessary to do.

Fine for 1 night, no frills!

Had a 1 night stay with my wife, location is great for the theatres and shopping. The only thing I would complain about was that the beds are on the small size and I should have asked for extra pillows. Wouldn’t stay for more than 1 night… but for a place to sleep and that’s all, you could do a lot worse!

My daughter came in with serious jet lag and I kept misplacing my key card (or forgetting to bring the card when exiting my room😬). The staff members were gracious each time I went to get another key card. Polite and courteous behavior every time I interacted with them from the front desk to the cleaning crew. The price was also about 1/3 the amount compared to neighboring hotels. Lastly, how cool is it to be 5 stories underground

Too deep underground for comfort! My bed was really uncomfortable too and realised in the morning that the mattress was upside-down… I.e. someone had fully made the bed with the bottom of the mattress facing up and the mattress topper underneath.
