Overall, everything was great. However, the walls are quite thin, and I could hear noise from the neighboring rooms. Despite that, I would recommend this hotel to travelers visiting London and Paris. It is conveniently located near a metro station and St. Pancras Station, where the Eurostar arrives and departs.

The hotel was very close to the British Museum and within walking distance of notable areas such as SoHo and Covent Garden. Access to the tube was also very close. The only negative was that the room did not have air conditioning and the window faced the street, so it was pretty loud at night.

Stafe was friendly and accommodating. The hotel restaurant's breakfast was nice. Good amount of dinning options nearby. The British Museum is only a 5 minute walk. My only negative comment is that the hotel rooms do not have air-conditioning.
