Hotels near Criterion Theatre, London

The hotel was a great price here on trip.com, it was an amazing location being 5min walk to picadilly station, 5min to Chinatown and 5min to Leicester square. The hotel was super clean! Their cafe, bathrooms and foyer never too busy always clean and staff super friendly. The room despite no windows felt welcoming and was also very clean. Loved the water pressure of the shower. Staff were always friendly and even my son commented on how smiley and kind they were :) the luggage storage service is such a plus but would have liked the additional cost of this to be clearer in trip.com as I thought this was included in our booking. Did miss having a kettle in my bedroom with tea, milk coffee but the rooms are not large enough to have this safely there.

Excellent location very peaceful space to stay, really love the capsules they are quiet and the right ammount of space needed for travel!

Wonderful stay in London! We had a great stay at this hotel. It’s clean, cozy, and perfectly located — very to everything, which made getting around London super easy. The highlight for us was the staff. They are extremely friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help, which really made us feel comfortable and at home. The hotel has a warm, cozy atmosphere and the rooms are clean. One small thing to note is that you need to request daily room cleaning, as it’s not done automatically. Also, when booking, it’s not clearly mentioned that a security deposit is required in case of any room damage. Other than that, everything was excellent. I would definitely stay here again and would happily come back every time I visit London.

Nice clean room .. quiet too floor .. staff very pleasant and helpful .. would stay again

Nice serene environment close to strategic amenities and focal points. Recommended

Near to Victoria Train Station and Bus Station. If you like theatre show such as Wicked- is just around the corner. Can easily find places to eat around the area.

This is a good hotel if you're looking for a more economical stay with a good breakfast. We had a great check in experience where we had arrived early and had a short wait for an early check in. The staff were very good here helping us find a table each morning for breakfast, made an ice pack for my wife's sore foot and they have a fridge to store food items behind the front desk. The location was pretty good and it was a short walk to popular attractions like Tate Modern, Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, and Burough Market. There were a few restaurants nearby and we enjoyed grabbing quick bites at many of the nearby shops including Tesco, Sainsbury's and Amazon Fresh. There are lots of hotels in the area as well. The hotel is located about a 7 minute walk from Blackfriars station which offers Thameslink Service to Gatwick Airport and connects easily to the Elizabeth Line to go to Heathrow. It is within a 15 minute walk to Waterloo and Southwark stations and there are busses that go through the area too so it makes the city very accessible. It is worth checking out the train schedule because some trains go every 20-30 minutes instead of the frequency north of the Thames. The room was nicely appointed with a comfy bed, four pillows, a small work space, a small wardrobe, tea station, large television, and some shelving to store our things. We were transiting through London and had brought three large suitcases with us and there was plenty of space for those. The hotel is located in a quieter area and the air conditioning is very strong so we enjoyed each night's sleep. There were signs posted that they were undergoing some maintenance work during our stay in August 2025 so it was very noisy after 9:30 am in the hotel. This is a temporary issue. We felt that the housekeeping could improve because we were provided with dirty hand towels a couple of times and they did not vacuum the floor at the entrance of the room. The wifi was good and if you've set up an IHG account before you can quickly and easily log in but we found that we had to reconnect each night. The bathroom was pretty good with a nice new and clean shower. The shower was very good each night with an adjustable head, eco setting, good temperature control and tight seals to keep the water in. They have unique shampoo and body wash that are kale and parsley scented. There isn't much room to hang wet towels in the bathroom but they do have hooks in the bedroom that we used. The breakfast was good and we were happy it was included in our stay. They had all the fixings for an English breakfast with particularly good sausages and rashes of bacon. They also had yoghurt, fruit, cheese and some cereal for a lighter breakfast. The coffee machine was good for made to order options and there was a good selection of tea. You can make yourself a go bag as well and they will let you take food too. If you have dietary restrictions you can let the front desk know when you check in and they will accommodate. We had a good stay here and it fit our itinerary. Picking a hotel in London can be tricky but the price, location, and room were right for us.

Fabulous experience staying in President Hotel - amazing location with Russell Sq station only around the corner which made exploring so seamless. I was travelling with my 11 year old daughter on a girls trip for her birthday. The staff surprised us with complementary breakfast & a beautiful surprise from housekeeping when we checked in. Amazing breakfast with great choices. Will most definitely be back on our next trip to London. Thank you for making our stay with you so memorable

Beautiful hotel from the outside and in a wonderful location, a stones throw from Oxford Circus, Bond Street and Goodge Street underground stations. Super convenient to get anyway and plenty of shopping, cafes and restaurants but also in a quiet street so you are no disturbed by any noises at night. The staff were super friendly and helped with a situation with my bathroom (even though it was late at night) and were very respectful and polite. The room was a little small but absolutely enough for 1 person. The room was very clean and had a clean kettle, some tea and biscuits, a study desk and a nice sized bathroom. Overall, I would certainly stay here again. Thank you!!

This hotel in Chinatown is ideally located for food. The room is clean, providing a relaxed and amazing feel.
