Guest Reviews
- Donna (10/5): Fantastic staff were great always there too help x - Very good location Nothing loved it
- Tadafumi (7/5): -
- Matej (8/5): Top location. Nice, cosy room but missing some details - Location. Next to metro, walkable to city centre, tesco express is near… No storage or shelves in the room to put essentials on. You can hear metro lines 24/7. Pipes are making noise.
- Philipp (7/5): -
- Farah (8/5): -
- Becky (8/5): - great location and great breakfast next door. nice clean rooms. building and communal areas not great, room not as advertised and extreamly small. no TV.
- Leclerc (5/5): Hôtel très bien situé et bien desservi séjour plutôt spartiate - L’emplacement est le point fort de l’hôtel Pas de placard ni de penderie
Pas de sèche cheveux
1 grande serviette /pers pour 4 jours
Pas d’essuie main
Le bruit du métro qui passe tout près : l’hôtel est au -4 et -5 eme étage
- Lombardi (5/5): - La ubicacion 4 pisos bajo tierra
- Inês Lamas (9/5): - Location, quick check in and check out.
The room is comfortable if you're staying for a couple of days. Lack of amenities and services inside the room. Low water pressure.
- Marjolein (6/5): - Great location, very central! The stay was less comfortable than expected. The room (and hallways)had a strong musty smell, like stagnant water, and was very small with no table or surface to place belongings. You can also hear the metro passing by throughout the day and late into the night, so not suitable for light sleepers.
- Foteini (8/5): -
- ryckbosch (7/5): - ○ close to the underground station and in the city center
○ relatively clean and spacious
○ very kind staff always greeting you when you come back
○ possibility to check in early
○ the lights make the room feel comfy despite being underground /no windows ○ the sound of the tube through the walls. I've been in a underground room at another hotel before (only -1 tho here the hotel is at - 4) but here the sound of the underground trains was quite loud
○lack of a chair /desk area despite the space for it
○ the shower a bit small /simple and the curtain could be cleaner at the bottom..
○ 15 pounds to keep the luggages before you can check in /after you check out seem excessive but I reckon it's due to a lack of storage space
- lisa (4/5): -
- Foti (8/5): bello - la posizione un po rumorosa
- Elia (5/5): - l'emplacement la chambre sentait la moisissure, l'humidité comme les égouts, toutes les chambres sont dans les sous sol, il y a de la moquette sale dans tous les couloirs de l'hôtel. On était au -5, on entendait l'eau qui passait dans les tuyaux des lors qu'on l'utilisait.
- Chaimaa.m (6/5): Non per chi soffre di claustrofobia - La posizione e lo staff Stanza claustrofobica senza finestre, zero appendiabiti o armadio zero comodini spazio minuscolo
- Clavijo Villegas (8/5): - La ubicación The duvet was horrible, looks dirty, with some brown marks, the towels for body they look very old and thinner. They could get better quality or just buying new ones because they look very old as the duvet too.
- Rebecca (8/5): Does what it says on the tin. - The hotel does what it says on the tin. It is in a great location, is clean and comfortable, and the staff are helpful. The total black out at night is great for sleeping, and I personally found the low rumble of the tube quite nice to listen to. The room is cosy and the bathroom facilities are pretty good. Shower gel, shampoo, and decent towels are provided. There is only one small lift which you must use, so often you have to wait for a few minutes for it to take a group to a few different floors, all the way up then all the way down before you can get in or out of the hotel. There are also occasional louder noises from the plumbing which are disturbing, but they're infrequent. The shower is a semi wet room style so there's quite a lot of splash onto the floor - each to their own but I'm not a fan of this. The climate control in the room was either very difficult to use or slightly broken, I can't quite decide. The temperature stayed just about ok but I'd be concerned if there was a heatwave.
- Rudy (5/5): - L'emplacement et le personnels La chambre très petite pas de tv pas de fenêtre énormément de bruit car le métro passe juste Dessous pour plu de 200€ Nous sommes déçus
- Chanice (7/5): -
- Sonja (2/5): vi var ute mest hela dagarna och klarade oss med detta hotell trots allt - Bra läge och rena rum Första gången under alla mina år med olika resor som man var tvungen att betala för bagageinlämning.
De hade endast lagt in stora badlakan i de flesta av våra rum och vi fick tjata till oss att vi önskade även små handdukar för händer. Inte mycket alternativ/ flexibilitet till frukosten. JÄTTESMÅ rum och utan möjlighet till att hänga kläder m.m
- Laura (8/5): -
- Ian (9/5): -
- carol (7/5): Good - Very friendly staff The noise from underground , but wouldn’t put me off coming again.
- Tivy (5/5): Good part of town. It's clean. You can find better value somewhere else. - It was clean and in a good part of London I didn’t realise the rooms were underground. The lift takes you down, and finding your room involves walking through winding corridors with twists and turns and no clear point of reference. It’s very easy to get lost.
For breakfast, you had to leave the building and walk along the main street to a restaurant next door.
- Emma (7/5): -
- Sarina (7/5): - De locatie. Incheck en uitcheck waren totaal niet vriendelijk, in vergelijking met de andere locatie van Zedwell waar wij in december verbleven was dit verschil groot. Jammer
- Rosa (9/5): placentera - Ubicación excelente, muy limpio Falta un armario o estanterias para poder dejar la ropa,
- rocio (8/5): - La ubicación Qué es pequeño
- Maria Dolores (1/5): - El lugar donde está Es un búnker
- nikolas (1/5): Room was filthy and smelt like sewage. Avoid this place. - Comfortable bed Room smelt like sewage. There was dust and rubbish in the room as well. Found a used toothpick, razor cap, and toe nail clippings in the room. Couldn’t believe it. By far one of the worst places i’ve stayed.
- Sarah (6/5): This hotel was in a prime location but the quarters were cramped and stuffy with no airflow. - The property was in a fantastic location with lots of restaurants and shops near by. The space was very small with zero amenities. There was no where to put things, no night stand, no table, not even an area in the bathroom for resting toiletries.
- Pascal (8/5): Agréable - Lieu, improbable dans, j’imagine, un ancien Parking.
Vraiment très bien fait! Rien
- Cherize (3/5): Did the job but below average unfortunately. - The staff were friendly. Room wasn’t clean, floors sticky, trains loud and room very small.
- Louise (9/5): Super central - Super central beliggenhed. Under jorden så INGEN gadelarm. Man kunne høre en minimal rumlen fra togene, men det var meget lidt og ikke til gene (ift hvad jeg ellers havde hørt) Mærkelig frosted glass ind til toilettet. Man kan ikke “se ind”, men man se ind..
- CCusack (2/5): Worst Z hotel I've been in by a mile - Location is convenient. Lighting in room is fine. Smells like sewage in rooms. Pipes screaming all night. Subway trains rumbling through wall all night. Matresses are awful. £15 per bag holding charge. 10am check out. Only 1 elevator for a place with dozens of rooms and no other access. No hairdryers in room. Nowhere at all to store clothes.
- Ermanno (3/5): I would only choose to stay here for the location and if nothing else is available - The location. Almost everything.
- Marina (1/5): DO NOT STAY HERE - Location The place smells and the customer service is shit. If there’s an issue, Zedwell and its parent company Criterion will not solve it because they just want your money. DO NOT STAY HERE
- Barbara (10/5): excellent central London location for an affordable price - the bed was very comfortable, good bedlinen, good shower There is a bad smell in the corridors , not in the pods
- jørn (4/5): - Gode senge og bad Lugten på hotellet minus værelset meget parfumeret
- Nicole (10/5): -
- Sheila (8/5): -
- Dylan (3/5): Proximité mais pas propre pas pratique et attention au claustrophobe - L’emplacement. Tout d’abord, la climatisation est très médiocre pas possible de descendre en dessous des 22 degrés.
Les matelas sont immondes c’est vraiment dégoûtant. La douche coule dans toute la chambre et aucune tringle pour suspendre les serviettes. Aucun mobilier. Aucun. Du pq et 3 serviettes pour 4 nuits, serviettes restant mouillés vu qu’on peut pas les sécher.
- Stephanie (7/5): -
- Juan Francisco (3/5): Pagas caro por incomodidad. - Estaba limpio. Check in sencillo. Buena ubicación. El precio es excesivo para las incomodidades. Realmente es muy incomodo. No tenes donde apoyar absolutamente nada. La ropa debes dejarla tirada en el piso, sin poder pasar. No hay perchero para colgar algo. No hay ni siquiera una minúscula mesa de luz.
No hay privacidad en el baño ya que los vidrios son esmerilados. La puerta del baño es corrediza, pero deja un espacio por lo que todo el olor a baño se va a la habitación.
El subte pasa por detrás de la habitación, por lo que el ruido y los temblores te van a despertar durante toda la noche. Suma a que el colchón es muy incómodo.
Si vas por una noche, zafa. Pero ir mas tiempo y acompañado se transforma en una tortura: el ruido y la vibración del subte, el baño sin privacidad, el minúsculo espacio para dejar las valijas y no tener donde siquiera apoyar algo, todo debe quedar en el piso.
Bajen el precio y las instalaciones serán acorde al precio abonado.
- Julien (8/5): -
- Stephen (1/5): A poor experience from the start, refund not yet concluded, legal process starting - Leaving. The whole experience was abysmal. If you like staying in a hot dungeon, in a room with no running water and the sound of tube trains rumbling beneath your bed, this is the place for you. Otherwise, avoid. Since there was no water in the room, I was unable to stay and checked in elsewhere. The hotel still won't refund me (which it is obliged to do) and will now be facing legal proceedings.
- Andy (7/5): - Prima voor een nacht die wij hier hebben geslapen. Gehorige kamer met de metro die voorbij rijdt.
Geen plek om je koffer / tas verhoogd weg te leggen.
- Giovanni (1/5): Non e ciò che mi aspettavo - Solo la posizione perché era vicino a tutto Manca il phon nella camera , per nnt puliti , e onestamente manca hanno cambiato le tovaglie
- Fočić (6/5): -
- Ohomina (1/5): -
- Andrew (6/5): -
- Helmi (7/5): -
- Tom (8/5): -
- Manavalan (1/5): No worth for money - Location Breakfast was limited and room is narrow. No welcome drinks. Lift was crowd always as only one lift was available.
- Ewelina (7/5): - Idealna lokalizacja. Pokój był czysty. Dobra cena jak na centrum Londynu. W pokoju jest głośno przez rury i metro. Brakuje szafek i miejsca gdzie można położyć swoje rzeczy.
- Antonio (5/5): Dormir dans le métro, et aucunservice pour - L’emplacement, le checkin, le personnel très très bien Le métro passe à côté des chambres chaque 10 minutes, beaucoup de bruit!
Pas de service de nettoyage,
pour déposer les bagages il faut payer GBP15 par bagage.
Aucune armoire ou étagère ou table dans la chambre.
Porte WC
- jeremie (4/5): Bon emplacement mais cher pour la qualité - La situation Pas de fenêtre dans la chambre car située en sous sol, odeur d’humidité
- Robyn (7/5): Great location & clean, don’t bother with breakfast go somewhere else - Super clean, quick check in, location is PERFECT! The breakfast. Do not recommend. £40 for 2x people and you can get a better range and quality somewhere else!
- Abdelkrim (7/5): -
- Dahiana (5/5): -
- PRobyr (3/5): -
- Mario (9/5): - buona struttura.. collegata con la metro .. l'albergo era totalmente sottoterra ma nn è stato un problema nulla
- Janssen (7/5): -
- Catherine (7/5): Emplacement top, mais prix élevé pour une petite chambre et des bruits de tuyauterie - Emplacement de l'hôtel vraiment au centre de Londres, à deux pas de l'arrêt de métro Tottenham Court, nous avons pu visiter une grande partie de Londres à pied ! Prix plutôt élevé pour une petite chambre, bruits de tuyauterie
- Gavi (6/5): - La posizione centrale dell'albergo Le vibrazioni costanti della metropolitana e delle tubature, l'asciugacapelli in una stanza al di fuori della camera
- Teresa (8/5): - Znakomita lokalizacja, świetne dla podróżujących biznesowo,osób, które nie chcą spędzać czasu w pokoju hotelowym, a wygodnie się wyspać i mieć komfort. Super był darmowy dostęp do żelazek i suszarek do włosów, a także możliwość zostawienia bagażu (za dopłatą). W pokoju nie ma mebli, brakuje chociaż większej liczby wieszaków, także w łazience.
- Harri (8/5): Saubere extrem ruhige Unterkunft an top Lage - Top Lage, wir konnten die ganze City zu Fuß erleben und sehr gut zum schlafen im tiefen Underground. Es ist in der Nacht extrem ruhig obwohl extrem viele kleine Zimmer mit Bad auf einer Ebene sind.
- Menendez (10/5): -
- Clara (6/5): Bien mais peut mieux faire ! - L emplacement
Logement très propre Pas de nettoyage des chambre pendant notre séjour.
Aucune étagère, armoire, … pour mettre les vêtements.
Forte odeur d urine dans les toilettes commune.
- Luca (7/5): Bett und Lage sehr gut, ansonsten rechtfertigt nichts den Preis. - Die zentrale lage Neue Handtücher 1 tag vor abreise und die alten wurden nicht mal mitgenommen, innerhalb meines Aufenthalts wurde auch nicht einmal das Bett gemacht oder GESAUGT. Es fehlt definitiv noch ein kleiner tisch auf dem man was abstellen kann, sowie eine Klobürste und ein vernünftiger Unterschrank unter dem Waschbecken.
- Anne (5/5): bof - tres bruyant
au 5emesous sol
petit dejeuner pas bon petit dejeuner
bruit
douche tres peu de pression
- Taylor (9/5): - We have stayed here twice now, Location is perfect, rooms are basic and clean, they have a beauty room with irons and hair dryers! The man that does security at night on the main entrance is very friendly. Staff on reception aren’t the friendliest or inviting
- Christina (7/5): - The location was amazing for the price. I was there for work, so probably wouldn't do it again because I am there for at least 3 nights... but great for anyone only stopping over short-term! I could hear the underground through the wall. I was also worried that I would sleep through my alarm - maybe have an option to automatically turn the lights on at an agreed time?
- Chris (9/5): Clean, comfortable, central, cosy, cat noises. - Clean, comfortable, great location Angry shower cat. The water pipes screamed like a furious moggy for about a minute after turning water off. The room next door seemed to have a cat problem too. That one was mewing loudly at 3am
- Claire (8/5): It did what we needed, and I slept well - Great location and comfortable
- Fernando (8/5): -
- Silvana (7/5): Ottimo - Posizione eccellente! Abbiamo dormito molto bene. Buon rapporto qualità-prezzo. Magari un po più spaziosa sarebbe stato l’ideale, ma nel complesso tutto bene.
- Elena (4/5): - Tres bien placé, pour le petit déjeuner je vous conseille d’y aller directement sans passer par l’hôtel ça vous reviendra moins cher avec plus de choix !! Entendre chaque métro faire trembler la chambre toute les 4/5 minutes et le spray odorant dans la réception et le couloir sont très fort et mon donner des migraines. La salle de bain n’était pas très “intime” ( on voit tous…) les prix sont très chers…
- Liam (7/5): Overall, good value for money, clean and modern room. - Easy to find, speedy check in process. Room was very small as expected but it was clean. Quite noisy due to being underground (you could hear the tube trains running).
- Bence (6/5): -
- Gemma (5/5): - Great location and price. The smell! Some areas smelt like a public toilet. Talking of which, I hated how noisy the toilet was. You could hear your neighbours toilet.
Also, the beds were far lower to the ground than expected.
- Giorgia (7/5): -
- Sébastien (10/5): - Ce Zedwell Hotel est absolument parfait à tous les points de vue : localisation, staff, confort. J'attends avec impatience d'y retourner. Rien.
- Cristina (10/5): Muy bueno - Céntrico, muy silencioso Las almohadas eran muy finas
- Luis (3/5): -
- Sam (9/5): -
- Janine (2/5): -
- Mattias (5/5): - Läget toppen Trångt Bunker liknande boende ..
Vi bodde i tre nätter blev fuktig handdukar torkade inte !
- benjamin (7/5): Great location. Small but a good night sleep. - Being underground meant no light pollution during the night which we loved. The bed was very comfortable so we slept very well.
Wifi was fast. And the check in was easy. The pillows were too big for our preference.
Some glasses/plastic cups and some water in the room would have been appreciated.
Check out time of 10am seems a little odd to me as most hotels ive ever been in have a checkout time of atleast 11.
- James (7/5): -
- Verity (4/5): Very disappointing and not good value - No tea and coffee facilities
No water provided, nor glasses
No chair/table in room
Tube was very noisy and disruptive
- Marina (1/5): Smelly and unhelpful. - Centrally located. Smelled so bad when I first arrived, and the smell persisted in the halls throughout my stay.
Also they are stiff necks that don’t help you when you made a mistake about the booking. If you can stay anywhere else, I’d highly recommend it.
- Lucie (5/5): Poor lighting and loud train noise - The bed was fairly comfortable. The room was too warm, there's no storage (I know it's meant to be a cocoon, but there needs to be more pegs and/or shelves), and I'm fine with no windows but there has to at least be good lighting. The low lights are useless when getting ready. Also, there was a toenail on the bed.
- Stephanie (3/5): -
- Araceli (8/5): -
- Julia (6/5): Tolle Lage, schönes Hotel, nette Mitarbeiter, Zimmerservice ausbaufähig. - Moderne Zimmer und tolle Lage. Kaum Ablagemöglichkeiten und der Zimmerservice hat nur den Müll geleert und Toilettenpapier ausgetauscht. Handtücher wurden auch nicht ausgetauscht nach Signalisierung durch das auf den Boden legen dieser.
- Lou (4/5): Impossible de faire une nuit sans qu’elle soit coupée par un bruit extérieur - L’emplacement Chambre située au -5 eme étage
Pas de meubles pour ranger nos affaires ni manger
On entend le metro toute la nuit et le bruit des canalisations/machines à laver dans les murs
- Zhen Da (10/5): -
- Rebecca (7/5): Amazing location clean rooms safe no noise just way to hot - Location Rooms are insanely hot, it’s my 3rd time staying there and everytime I ask about aircon the staff say they will sort it. It’s always insanely hot.
