My goal was to stay at a B&B-style hotel, and the Crescent Hotel worked out fine. I would definitely stay again. It's in a quite area. There are hospitals nearby, so you might hear ambulances. Our room was small, but we didn't ask for anything large. A room with two twin beds and en suite toilet, sink and shower was... more

As other reviews have stated, the location is perfect – near two stations and within walking distance of the British Museum. Our room, a triple with bathroom (shower only), was comfortable and quite large, but there seems to be a variety of room sizes. The hotel offers some sense of staying in a British home. The internet was down one... more

We booked the Crescent Hotel based on it's review in Frommers and because my Husband knew the area very well. I was disappointed from the moment we walked in the front door. First of all there was someone cleaning the windows above the front door. He didnt stop to let us in and I got drenched with water dragging my... more

This hotel is well located between three tube stations (King's Cross, Russel Sq and Euston Sq). The hotel is clean and adequately furnished. It's no luxury, but it is sufficient for a few days of London. The breakfast - freshly cooked to order - is one of its strong points, another being the friendly and helpful staff. more

Cartwright Gardens has many hotels. This had to be the worst of the lot. First of all, the steps to get to my room on the 3rd level were very steep and I was always afraid of tumbling downwards. The room itself was tiny, with a sink and shower attached. I couldn't use the shower as the water was never... more

The Crescent Hotel is well located and perfectly fine for the money. Our room was big by London standards, clean and had a TV. The included breakfast ends too early - 9am - for people on vacation which was disappointing. We would probably stay there again. more

We stayed in the Crescent Hotel for 2 weeks in Oct 2008. I was travelling with my 10 year old daughter. Overall, we found the hotel to be very good for our needs. I had originally planned to only stay for 9 days but then got some extra time off so we extended our stay. I booked the initial reservation... more

i spent a total of 10 nights at the Crescent, in August and September of 2008, and on the whole was very satisfied. It's a 2-star hotel, about 75 pounds a night for a single with bath. The rooms were very clean. I was relieved to see my first room was spacious enough, and had a big window onto a... more

I stayed here for one night in September and was pleasantly surprised. It is about a 5 minute walk from both Euston and St Pancras and is set in a rather pretty tree lined crescent. I arrived about 12.30 and having read on the website that it was ok to leave luggage on your arrival and departure dates thought I... more
