Excellent area to stay in at low prices, though there's been a 10%increase recently and that will encourage me to visit London using this accomodation less frequently.Anyway with the prices at the time I stayed, breakfast included, a place to cook your own food, a student style area to relax, play pool etcetera and the proximity to the West End,...

I greatly enjoyed my stay at LSE High Holborn, and intend to stay there again on future visits to London. One thing to keep in mind when booking is that this is a student dorm, and thus you should not be expecting hotel-style accommodations. That being said, I was pleasantly surprised at the size of the room - there was... More

We were actually pretty lucky to stay in such a great location. But I must say we were very disappointed with the rooms. The sheets on the beds were dirty, the trash wasn't emptied out, and it was so dusty we couldn't stop from sneezing all the time. Breakfast wasn't too bad. More

Had stayed in High Holborn during my course in LSE.. Stayed there for a month or so... Great location and amazing value for money.. If you just a bunch of guys travelling in UK then such places are excellent.. Just 5 mins walk to Oxford Circus and Covent Garden!! Well connected from tube station where the red line works.. they...

The rooms are nice and clean although it's a little small for twin sharing. Breakfast was great. Strategic location in central London. Good security. More

While the room (superior double, shared toilet) was small, it was a great price given the location, within walking distance of British Museum, Trafalgar Square, etc. Besides, we only used the room for sleeping. Wi-fi never really worked for us, which was frustrating. We'd log on to webmail, and wait 5 minutes... Breakfasts had lots of choice, although the disposable... More

Wifi is dodgy in the common areas, weak signal, password/login changes seemingly randomly, which means a trip to reception for current codes,when they have time and inclination to help. NO wifi in-room, although the wired LAN can be hacked. The rooms facing the street are NOT noisy, unless you fancy yourself a descendant of the princess in "the princess and... More

Was here for a couple of nights in August. The location is excellent, really close by to the British Museum, Covent Garden and other attractions. The 'economy twin room' I stayed in was essentially a single room with an extra bed put in. Pretty no-frills standard cheap mattress and all, which was okay for a couple of nights but would... More
