Friendly owners. Felt safe. Close to transit. Rooms were very dated and small. Need to update its overall room appearances (bedding, furniture and bathroom fixtures etc). Surrounding area at first appeared sketchy but in the end it was fine.

The group of drug users we had to walk past to get to hotel didnt fill us with confindence, the room was tiny and the bathroom was even smaller. The walls were so thin so heard everything in the hotel so it was very hard to actually sleep

Perfect budget hotel for the price. Clean comfortable bed and, while the shower is a bit tight, it’s plenty powerful and hot enough. Easy to find and plenty of good places to eat and drink nearby.

Elmwood hotel is very close to Kingscross/St Pancras, off of a quiet square a block or so off the Euston Road. It's convenient for coming and going from the airport or for getting anywhere you want to go in London.

Honored to be a 'regular' guest

The staffs are simply amazing, so helpful, friendly, and personable, almost like family friends once we get to know them. So comfortable to stay. Some noise from the outside or other guests with young children can be a bit disturbing but that cannot be helped and the staff will try to accommodate the needs, wonderful!
