I stayed in this hotel for one night on a business trip. For the money in London I was not expecting too much but I was very pleasantly surprised. Yes, as with some of the other reviews, the hotel has seen better days but I found the room very clean and it had everything I would normally expect. It is... More

What a great find! this hotel has it all for a budget break . It was easy to find , very quick to check in and lovely helpful staff. As previous reviews the hotel is in need of updating but in the current climate I understand this is not always possible, and it doesn't affect the experience at all. Another... More

We stayed at this hotel for a couple of nights on a theatre and sight-seeing break. It was relatively easy to get into the centre of London, but was nice to be able to stay in a pleasant residential area. The building has seen better days, but the room was warm and comfortable. The staff were welcoming and friendly. The... More

I was concerned when I read the other reviews, I hadn’t made the booking for this hotel and did try to get our group to stay somewhere else, but the booking had been made. The upside: very clean, good shower, big towels, helpful staff and very cheap. Room includes hairdryer, basic shower gel, soap, kettle, tea & coffee. The downside;... More

What I immediately liked about this hotel is the spacious rooms - at least on the first floor. The bed was big (though not the most comfortable I've slept it, but it'll do) and the room featured a couch and coffee table, as well as a little foyer. It was great for slowly waking up and having coffee. Each room... More

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the the Britannia Hampstead. Its location between the Hampstead (with all its attractions) and Primrose Hill areas of London is really superb. The real bonus with this hotel is that it has a limited amount of on-site parking which is almost unheard of with the more central London hotels. Even if the hotel's own... More

Stayed there last weekend along with 13 of family for nearby wedding, bit worried having read the few bad reviews as I had suggested this hotel to everyone. The staff were very polite, attentive, and helpful. The duty manager was hands on and seemed always present. It seemed to be one of my beloved old THF Posthouses from the 1980's... More

This particular hotel does require updating in many ways. Some of the reveiws are quite scathing however it depends what you need to use the hotel for. If you are working and require reasonable rates plus easy transportation links to central london then this could be for you. Myself and my son has just stayed for three nights whilst working... More
