Hotel Details

Location

Exceptional central London location with a 9.7 location score, steps from Russell Square tube station and within easy walking distance of the British Museum, Euston, and King's Cross.
The property is situated in a quiet residential street in Bloomsbury, yet is incredibly well-connected. Russell Square tube station (Piccadilly line) is a 2-minute walk away, giving direct access to Heathrow. Euston Station is a 15-minute walk. St Pancras International and King's Cross are about a 10-minute walk. The British Museum is an 8-minute walk; Oxford Street and Soho are about a 20-minute walk. The area feels safe and is family-friendly, with a bakery (Fortitude Bakehouse) and a Tesco Express immediately nearby. The property is also a 10-minute walk from University College Hospital. London City Airport is 14 km away.

Accommodation

Modern, fully-equipped studios and apartments with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, and air conditioning. Rooms vary in size and layout by type and floor level.
Room types include Standard Studio (often on a lower ground floor), Deluxe Double Studio, Deluxe King Studio (top floor, lift accessible), and one-bedroom apartments with separate living area. All units have a private bathroom with a walk-in shower, a kitchenette with stovetop, fridge, microwave, toaster, and kettle, plus air conditioning, heating, a flat-screen TV with streaming services, and ironing facilities. Some rooms have a sofa bed. The Deluxe King Studio is on the top floor and is larger. Standard Studios are located on the lower ground floor and have windows, but natural light is limited and noise from the laundry room, staff area, and the street can be significant. Rooms on upper floors are quieter. Beds in many rooms are described as comfortable by some, but others report that double beds are small and firm; rooms over 1.80 m should check bed length. The one-bedroom apartment includes a separate bedroom and a living area with a sofa.

Dining

The property does not offer an on-site restaurant or breakfast service, but the location provides abundant nearby dining and self-catering options.
There is no breakfast, restaurant, or bar on site. Each apartment has a fully equipped kitchenette, making self-catering straightforward. Nearby dining options within a 3-5-minute walk include Franco Manca (pizza), Carluccio's (Italian), Saracen's Carvery, and several pubs and cafes such as Fortitude Bakehouse and Palm Court. A Tesco Express and a Waitrose are just around the corner for groceries. Guests who prefer to eat out have a wide variety of restaurants, cafes, and bakeries in the immediate area, particularly in the Russell Square and Bloomsbury neighbourhood.

Amenities

The property focuses on practical, self-sufficient stays with free WiFi, free laundry, luggage storage, and a secure keyless entry system.
Free WiFi is available in all rooms. The free laundry room on the lower ground floor has two washing machines and two dryers, and does not require coins. Luggage storage is available both before check-in and after check-out for a few hours; the office opens at 08:00. Check-in is via a keyless door code, with instructions provided in advance. Security features include 24-hour security, CCTV in common areas and outside the property, smoke alarms, and fire extinguishers. There is a lift to all floors. No housekeeping or daily towel change is provided. There is no on-site reception; communication is via WhatsApp or messaging. There is no parking. The property does not accept pets.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Book an upper-floor room (Deluxe King or Deluxe Double) to avoid noise from the street, hallway, and basement-level laundry and staff areas.

  • 02

    Use the free luggage storage for early arrival or a late departure; the office opens at 08:00 and storage is available for a few hours.

  • 03

    Choose a Standard Studio only if you are a light-sleep-tolerant single traveller; lower-ground rooms have limited natural light and higher noise levels.

  • 04

    Plan to self-cater using the fully equipped kitchenette - nearby supermarkets make this convenient - as there is no restaurant or breakfast service on site.
