It was fine. Lovely check in staff. And easy check in. Mastic on window wasn’t great to see - and window cill not very clean. And although room had a window it wasn’t a great set up. Chipped sink. Very noisy throughout the night - not sure if it toilet systems or something else. Room was snug but knew it would be when booked. Floor was nice n clean

The property is conveniently located to Covent Garden and the theatre district. It's also close to metro and bus stops. Other pros include the lovely shower, large tvs (2 in a 2Q room), and comfy beds. However, the room size is not as pictured in their expedia photos. The rooms are so small that there is no room for luggage. We brought bags/backpacks and there was no place to store them in the room nor were there drawers or closets. We had a 2 queen bed room and 4 people struggled to work around each other in the tiny space. When we asked the front desk about storage, how others handled, or if there was a larger room (there isn't), the response was shrugged shoulders. Upon checkout, we discovered you could store your luggage in a room next to the front desk which still seems less than ideal. Bottomline: don't stay here unless you need a no frills (expensive) room for a short timeframe. Do not recommend.

Too Small

The double room was just too small for two people. You have a bed, TV & bathroom… which had NO privacy. Had to have one person get ready at a time. There was just Not enough space. AC constantly dripped on the floor. Fire alarm went off at 5:00am in error! Staff was friendly, though. Probably OK for ONE person.

Hotel Z was one of the few hotels which falls into that category which isn't a £20 a night dormitory or a £150+ expensive hotel. For a very reasonable price, you get a clean, comfy, air conditioned room in a great location. I arrived 3 hours early and was able to leave my bag at the hotel. When I came back in the evening, someone had taken my bag to my room for me! The room was compact but perfect for me. I think if you were travelling with a lot of luggage and with two people, you might struggle. The shower/bathroom was new and really well put together. Bed was clean and really comfy. The staff were do friendly and super helpful. There was a kettle in the room and taylors of harrogate coffee bags (really appreciated having a nice coffee to start the day!). Breakfast was a tenner, it was fairly simple but what was available was tasty and fresh.

Not for me …

Not for me. I’m 6’1’’ and the bed was to small for me to fit in. Tiny little room. No space. Asked 2 times for towels to be changed and they forget each time. Bought a double gin/tonic a the bar and the barman faked pouring the second once on my drink…

The room was stiflingly hot and the air con just couldn’t cope (I had it set on the lowest setting, helped by one of the staff.) And, with windows which couldn’t open, there was no way of cooling the room, especially as I came back late in the evening. Resulting in a very uncomfortable night.

Quite terrible - staff just didn't seem to care to fix issues. When I arrived, the person didn't tell me how to access the Wifi - I had to ask When I got to my room, there was a blinking light on my phone indicating I had messages - called the desk, the person said to ignore it. I wanted to clear the blinking - he promised to send someone (7pm). I left for dinner. Nothing happened. Called again (930pm) - he promised to send someone. Nothing. Called again - 10pm - he said there's no one left and it would be done in the morning. I asked why he didn't call to tell me this, but no real reason. Next day - nothing. TV wasn't working. It wasn't plugged in. I finally got it plugged in, but got a Roku error message in French. Took it downstairs - two of the staff looked at it and didn't bother to think it through - just told me they couldn't fix it. Used google translate to figure out what the message said and - after some work - got Roku on. But, turned out there was a separate TV input. I am really really surprised that a big hotel like that has only one elevator.
