Hotels near St. James, London

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).

My initial expectations weren't very high; I thought it would be pretty average. However, after checking in, I found the location to be excellent, the hotel incredibly clean, and the facilities impressive. It offers great value for money. I'd definitely stay here again on my next visit.

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.

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.

The biggest advantage is the location. It's very close to the London Eye, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, and Chinatown, all within walking distance. There's also a subway station a few minutes' walk away, making transportation very convenient. The facilities are a bit old, and the elevator is a bit small. The room size isn't small, and the service was quite good. We booked a deluxe twin room, and the bathroom didn't have a separate shower stall; showering in the bathtub felt a bit cramped, so be careful. Also, the shower water easily splashed out and made the bathroom floor wet. The bathroom having a heated towel rail was a plus, but I couldn't seem to find an exhaust fan. The breakfast was refined, but the downside was that there weren't many vegetables, and the variety was the same every day for the three nights we stayed, except for one special snack daily.

Everything is okay ! Quite shock that our room has a microwave, easy for us to cook our ready to eat food ! if i go to london again, pretty sure i will book this hotel again !

This room has a fantastic location, super close to the British Museum, with convenient transport links. It's clean and tidy, and perfectly suited for two adults and one child, although the bathroom is a bit on the small side. Plus, breakfast is included, and the price is really great value for money.

Location is great, accessible to several main areas within Central London. Covent Garden, Piccadilly Circus, Chinatown, several cinemas and musicals are all within a 5-10min walk away. Staff were also extremely helpful whenever we have questions or needed help. Amenities & facilities provided are the bare minimum and basic stuff. So don’t expect too much, as you will be spending time outside most of time as well Refreshing welcome drink beside the reception ☺️

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.

This hotel is right in the heart of theatre land and is easy to get to other attractions as various metro lines are around. It was our birthday and they kindly left a bottle of Prosecco and a delicious cake and decorated the bed. Beautiful touch and really appreciated. The staff were extremely helpful and solved many of our problems too. The only niggle was our toilet as after flushing the water would continue to drip until you went to the flush and pushed it several times to stop.Cant comment on the breakfast as we didn't eat at the hotel. Overall a great hotel and I would 100% stay again.
