Hotels near Fleet Street, London

A brilliant stay at the Apex Temple over Christmas. Staff were very welcoming and professional, the rooms and the hotel were immaculate and the facilities were in great condition. We stayed between the 23rd - 27th and were so thankful we tried this hotel as it really did make a difference during our time in London. After spending the day travelling and sightseeing throughout London the close proximity to everything really helped as well as the hotel being set back from the road. As soon as you step into the courtyard with the music playing, it's like stepping into a difference city entirely protected from the bustling city outside. We ate at the restaurant once, I had the Shepherds Pie and it was delicious, same can be said for the room service breakfast which turned out to be a blessing as we missed the queue for breakfast out entirely. We also used the gym facilities a couple of times, being a hotel there is limited options on weight ranges but with a little thought you can get a really good workout done. The City King hotel room was large, and a great size for both of us, the only comment I would make is it needed potentially more table space and drawers and plug sockets on both sides of the bed, other than that, it was perfect. We were in room 349 which was a corner room, no issues there, just be prepared for a little bit of a walk as you get out of the lift. Would definitely stay again and may even opt for a suite next time as I hear the views from the 4th/5th floor are amazing.

Here's a breakdown of my stay: **Pros:** 1. The mattress was quite soft and comfortable. However, there was no mirror, small accent light, power outlets, or ventilation fan in the room. 2. Relatively clean and tidy: The public areas of the restrooms were cleaned 2-3 times a day. 3. Excellent location: Situated in the bustling city center, right next to the National Gallery and Chinatown. The British Museum is also within walking distance. 4. Quite safe: There's security at the hotel entrance checking guest key cards for building entry. Each floor is divided into multiple segregated zones, requiring a specific key card for access. Each capsule bunk has a rolling door that can be locked from both the inside and outside. You'll need to bring your own small lock to secure it from the outside. **Important Notes/Tips:** Early check-in, late check-out, and luggage storage all incur separate fees. Luggage storage costs around £15 per piece. I recommend using an external convenience store for luggage storage, which costs about £3 per piece per day. For example, check out the Chinese store at 68 Eversholt Street, which is close to St Pancras and Euston stations, and the British Museum. Also, you can download the 'Too Good To Go' app. Every morning, you can purchase a breakfast 'surprise bag' from the Radisson Blu hotel a few hundred meters away for a discounted price of £5.50 (the original price for the breakfast buffet is £29.90 per person).

The nearest tube station is a 8-10 minute walk, and the bus stop is very close. It's near UCL and not far from the British Museum on foot. I thought the 0.8m bed would be too narrow, but it was actually fine. The room is indeed small but perfectly adequate. It shares a building complex with 'The Sleeper' hotel, but has a different restaurant and is a bit cheaper. The service was good, and the shower pressure was decent, which is a big plus as many hotels in the UK have very low water pressure. I didn't experience any fire alarms in the middle of the night. As for breakfast, most places in the UK are pretty similar, but this one was quite substantial. Good value for money overall.

Clean hotel and good TV with netflix. Street was noisy in morning. The complimentary muffins and water was nice.

The hotel's location is excellent, within walking distance to many attractions, and the room was decent. However, check-in time is in the afternoon, so if you arrive early, you'll have to store your luggage first. Also, we had booked a twin room, but the hotel kept trying to give us a single room. We had to decline multiple times before they finally gave up.

Hotel muy bien situado, próximo al British Museum y de otros lugares de interés. Muy bien comunicado con metro y bus que permiten acceder a otros puntos de la ciudad fácilmente. Utilizamos una habitación para 3 adultos y era muy espaciosa, con camas muy amplias y cómodas. Apenas tengo un comentario negativo, solicitamos una habitación silenciosa y no fue así, todo lo contrario, por el día y durante gran parte de la noche había un fuerte ruido de alguna máquina, además por la mañana se oían los ruidos de los empleados del hotel realizando tareas de limpieza.

The room was a bit small, but very clean. It's super convenient for getting around, being just a short walk to King's Cross Station. I really appreciated being able to check in early and store my luggage.

ROOM is not small but very tiny, stayed 3 nights for single occupancy. Had to step into toilet to close front door. from front door its one step to left toilet/bath and one step to right a queen bed. there was a weird pillar in middle of room as well. noisy dripping sound from above, all day, all night, ask to change rooms which comes with condition to check out in morning and ”try” checking in again in late afternoon/evening. i gave up and they came to change my room shower head while i was away which is totally not the noise origination.... they don't clean rooms daily. no phone in room had to go down to fetch amenities and water if u need experience wise not good for GBP250+/night. On the good side, room, towels, bedsheets are clean. if you just there for 1 night its ok but not more.

Excellent location, right in the middle of Russell Square, just a 3-minute walk to the subway station. There's a whole series of convenience stores and restaurants right around the corner downstairs. The breakfast selection was great, and the Wi-Fi speed was impressive too! The British Museum is only a 7-minute walk away.
