Great location for a short-stay traveller
You get what you pay for - my room was quite small with a single (one twin) bed. This is not a complaint, it was exactly what I needed. Location is good - close to Euston station and to tube stations on both the Elizabeth and Jubilee lines (both of which go to Heathrow). There is a little green space around and a not-too-distant walk (20 minutes) to Trafalgar Square, St. James Park, and Buckingham Palace. Tower Bridge and the Thames is somewhat further. Lots of places to eat nearby because it's close to the West End theatres.

Hotel is old. There is no air flow and the room was very stuffy and muggy. Room didn’t feel clean, found various hairs everywhere. Somewhat central. Bed was comfortable, sheets and pillows were not. Only one towel provided for 2 people. Nowhere to hang hand towel. Toilet paper dispenser broke right away. Garbage can fell over every time you tried to open it. Outside noise was loud which proved annoying given the need to have a window open 24/7. Overall a very average 3 star hotel, possibly even 2. Not worth the money.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating for special needs. The restaurant and garden area are lovely, and I liked the nature theme represented throughout the hotel. the location couldn't be more ideal. I would recommend the back side of the hotel (the garden side), as it is quieter. I will definitey stay there again!

Great Hotel for the Price
I booked a single room, with a twin bed. The room was small and narrow, but it was clean and comfortable. There was no air conditioning, but there was a fan provided which was adequate for the weather. The bathroom was small, but functional. It was a bit of a step up to get into the tub/shower, but the water was hot with good water pressure. I paid for the breakfast in the restaurant/bar which was very nice. The staff were excellent. They were always friendly and helpful. The hotel was literally around the corner from the British Museum, and a short walk to the tube. I would stay there again.

We arrived early at 10am hoping we could store our luggage. We received a warm welcome from the lovely gentleman on reception who advised us we could check-in early and our room was ready at no additional cost. Our room was clean and comfortable especially after long days of walking around London. Everyone we had the pleasure of dealing with at tbt hotel went above and beyond. We had an amazing stay for the price and the hotel is well placed to explore with two tube stations close by. We will definitely be choosing this hotel next time we visit London!
