6/10 Good

OK for one night passing through
Maurizio, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent Base of Operations

Really lovely hotel with character. Loved the oddly shaped rooms. They were clean and the bed was AMAZING. I have mobility issues and they were brilliant, offering a room on the ground floor. This hotel is not suitable for someone in a wheelchair though as the reception is up 10 steps, but otherwise 10/10.
Olliver, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The receptionist was very helpful the room was adequate for an overnight stay.
David, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Sticky dust central

The sheets were dirty when I arrived and the receptionist suggested I use the sheets from the other bed. There was a layer of sticky residue on door handles, and the layers of dust started flaking into geological patterns. Honestly, the dirtiest place in London.
Vera, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Helpful staff Convenient location
Catherine Patricia, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Disappointed and Misled

This is not a hotel and should not be advertised as one. The top floor is difficult to reach—even for someone in good shape, and the narrow staircase is essentially impossible for those with limited mobility. The room is outdated, with stained carpets and a bathroom that doesn’t match the photos. Breakfast is very basic: just toast with jam or Nutella, instant coffee, cornflakes, and cheap orange juice. Overall, I was extremely disappointed with this place.

8/10 Very good

When we got to the Greenville Hotel there was a sign on the door that said to go next door to the Guildford hotel which we did an actually stayed in that hotel. The staff were pleasant the facilities were okay and we were happy with what we got.

Nice cheap hotel in good position friendly guy on the reception
Ian, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Stains, unrepaired damage and bed bugs!

The room was very poor. It it tired, scruffy and in a generally poor state. The bathroom was terrible. Although it didn't appear to be actually dirty there were stains and damaged things everywhere. The window didn't open and the extractor fan didn't work. Finally I have returned home to find I have bed bug bites over my body. I will be reporting them to the environmental health authority for the area.
Ciaran, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Could do better

We booked on a budget and did not expect frills but the room was cramped rather than small and while clean it looked neglected. The shower pressure was low and the toilet ran a lot after flushing. The mattress felt worn out. Breakfast was basic but ok for the price and the staff member was polite and cheerful.
Fiona, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The reviews of this place have been pretty harsh, so I booked with an open mind! Room was clean, and hotel small and certainly not fancy, but it absolutely met my needs for price point and location. There is a trick to using the hot water, and instructions are provided - on the desk in room. No frills, cheapest accommodation I could get in this area - will happily book again. Thank you.
Damon, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Convenient but very noisy, dusty and not very comfortable. If price is low worth it but best in mind very dusty noisy and food for breakfast very minimal
Aidan Thomas, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location just few minutes walk from kings Cross. The staff was nice and helpful. The breakfast was not good and too basic.

Room stank of sewage
Dean, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This property to be honest how it receives it’s ok to run as a guest house! It’s incredibly outdated, expensive, with a hideous bathroom, broken window, tv that doesn’t start, wifi that is limited, kitchen that is worse than a restaurant kitchen, what era is this place stuck in ? Poor, definitely wouldn’t not book again. The only positive thing were the reception staff which were welcoming and accommodating
Alexandra, 2-night trip
