The hotel's location is fantastic - it is about 5-10 minutes walk to the underground and there are many shops/food stalls near the hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. I stayed at the 2nd floor for the first 3 nights of my stay and was pleasantly surprised to be upgraded to the penthouse suite on the last night when... More

Super hotel. Great location in the center of the northern district Camden. A few 100m from the subway station away. In about 15 minutes. in central London. Great bars and nightlife. Many restaurants in the area and the unique Camden market. Already the second time at this Hotel. Would recommend to everyone!

The hotel is nice. Clean and modern, close to Camden High Street and the Lock of course. Nice staff. But yet - if you visit London to experience other areas of the city - not so convenient. The location is far from the main tourist areas, and connected by just the Northern Line. Which was closed due to repairs that... More

... and we certainly do! Did you? Yet, Covent Garden is only 15 min away, by Tube. But like for anywhere else, that is if the Tube is not getting a fix. Luckily for us, it doesn't happen very often when the whole network is getting a total refurbishment at the moment, just in time to celebrate its 150th anniversary... More

This hotel is in a great location and we had a lovely view of the lock. It was my birthday and they put birthday decorations and a cake in our room which was a nice gesture! The hotel is right in the centre of the market and so you would expect some noise but it didn't effect us at all.... More

We were placed at this hotel by Hotwire, and we were very pleased. The location is amazing - a 5 min walk (2 blocks) to the Camden tube station.

Stayed here again after first stay in Dec-12. Pleasant stay once more, just a tiny problem with the shower heating. Reported this and received a personal call from the Duty Manager some days later to tell me they've taken my issue seriously and investigated the heating. So very professional and polite attitude from the staff.

Stayed here on a work trip for one night. Clean and tidy hotel with lovely views over the lock and Camden. Extremely close to Camden high street. Nice breakfast but no bacon! shocking! Reception staff were very helpful and the hotel bar is a nice little place to relax.
