I was looking for a quiet hotel near the British Museum. The hotel certainly feels old, and of course, the rooms aren't spacious, as is typical for London hotels. However, if you're traveling solo, it's perfectly fine. My room had a view of greenery from the window, and the birdsong in the mornings was particularly pleasant. That said, I could easily hear the TV and coughing from the adjacent room, so the level of comfort would vary greatly depending on your neighbors. Breakfast was tasty, but it was the same menu for all five days. In hindsight, I should have only opted for two days, given the abundance of cafes nearby. The bed was comfortable. However, the shower felt like a drizzle and would likely be considered very weak by Japanese standards. The towels also felt quite old. On the positive side, the hairdryer was powerful and convenient. There was also a fan in the room, which would be helpful given the recent sweltering summer heat. All the staff were incredibly kind and wonderful. There's a bus stop close to the hotel, and Russell Square Station is only about a 5-minute walk away. Although it faces the road, it feels safe and quiet.
