Great hotel, our room was ready even though we arrived to the city pretty early. The front desk staff were helpful, the room was comfortable and even though there wasn’t air conditioning it was very nice in our room. Close to plenty of transportation options, restaurants and places to go. We enjoyed our stay and will likely stay here again

The property is in a very desirable location. The food was awful, I’ve had stomach cramp since which I believe was due to the chicken and mushroom pie. The pastry was hard and in hind side although it had been cooked likely it was frozen and had been frozen for too long. This causing (when it was cooked it was chewy and stale). I left most of it. The vegetables were stone cold. The portion of vegan cottage pie was so tiny my friend had to order another meal!. On the up side, the cottage pie was half refunded and a complimentary drink was offered by the staff, they were very good; I felt sorry for them as it wasn’t their fault.

Convenient, Clean and Cozy

The Tavistck Hotel was very good for our stay in London. It is located within an easy walk to Russell Square Underground Station, which made it very convenient and only a short walk away from the British Museum. The room was comfortable, though the decor was a bit dated, but it was clean and met our needs for the week. Staff at the hotel were friendly and helpful.

Good location

We chose this hotel for an overnight stay when going to the theatre. The hotel is near to a good tube link. Our twin room overlooked the park area opposite and the beds were comfy. The room wasnt huge but was ok for one night & had wardrobe hanging. The downside was the tiny seperate toilet / bathroom set up. There was limited space in both areas & no basin in the toilet so if someone was using bathroom there is nowhere to wash your hands! The hotel staff were friendly & helpful. The breakfast buffet had plenty of choice. The hotel lounge / bar area has lots of seating & comfy chairs for a relaxing drink. We enjoyed our stay.
