The staff were friendly and did all they could to make a bad situation better Terribly overpriced; not enough space to feed all guests at breakfast at the same time; no room in shower to stand up (hand held shower in bath) without banging your head; masking tape (and not even neatly stuck) around door to block out drafts; general...

I stayed in London for 4 nights and stayed at this hotel, simply because of closeness of Victoria station. Hotel room was single and extremely small, I dare to say even claustrophobic. Breakfast options were very limited and not very satisfying. On top of everything, I had to pay 10 GBP for 24 hours of usage the WiFi (which by... More

Stayed here for a week recently. Hotel was selected by my work due to convenient location and price. For this area of London the price is excellent and the location enabled me to walk to work in Whitehall all week! The rooms are a little small and a little over heated but otherwise comfortable and clean. The Internet is not... More

We stayed in Melita House Hotel for four nights, and the first thing we noticed was, that the room is quite small. Small, but sufficient and tidy. It didn't really bother us, since we didn't come all the way to London just to watch TV in our hotelroom. We had a comfortable bed with big pillows and a quiet neighborhood,... More

This hotel was booked for me by the travel company that organise my business travel and accommodation. I had asked for a hotel close to Victoria which this is. I arrived at 11.30pm and was shown to a room in the basement. The room smelt and had a vinyl floor covering, the sort I would expect in a kitchen, but... More

We are sorry this guest didn't get the room he had hoped for. We don't have vinyl flooring anywhere. The lower floors have wood laminate flooring which is both attractive and favoured by people with allergies. He did at least admit he was below par and didn't make his observations at the time. More

Hotel was well located, clean, decent breakfast - possibly overpriced at £95 per night for a single room in October (albeit a weekend). But my arrival was spoilt by a most unfriendly lady on reception. She opened the front door without a greeting or a smile, and then at the desk started to charge my credit card not for a... More

I've stayed at Melita Hotel in May while on bussiness. I wanted a weekend away with my partner so I booked a Double room. The hotel has the same standards as before.

This hotel looks a lot better then it is! From the outside. But once you step through the door it becomes painfully clear almost immediately: this is a small, bit sleezy, way overpriced third-rate place. And they make you pay for everything, wi-fi, coffee or tea, I even suspect them of weighing the breakfast beans before they put it on... More

We are struggling to understand this review. We do not have 3 Polish chefs. We have one Chef and he is not Polish ! Not sure why his Nationality is important to this "German" reviewer. Unless he was 7 feet or 2.2m tall he would fit in a shower. His reviews of other hotels are also damning so I guess... More
