Great breakfast, clean bedding, towels and bathrooms. Nice employees. Close to subway station and bus stops. We had a room at the very top of the building which was a hard climb, but what you get with Expedia. No a/c. and it was noisy sleeping with the window open. More

I was in a rush to book a room for the night and in comparison to the bigger hotels this seemed like the best price. Good friendly staff and the hotel was very clean and peaceful but for £125 a night I did not expect to have to shower right next to the toilet, my wardrobe at home is bigger... More

Great base for exploring London and always knew it would be cosy with 2 adults and 2 teenagers, but don't bother paying extra for an ensuite, it was the size of a broom cupboard!. We used the share facilities which were always very clean. The beds were comfortable and good quality bedding. The breakfast was substantial with the usual array... More

We only stayed here for one night and it was ok. It was cheap which was great and it included a very generous breakfast. We were in a tiny room, sharing bathrooms which were clean every time we used them. It's ok, not amazing but pretty good value. More

This is a late review on this small hotel where I stayed last year October from 7/10 to 10/10 for my short holiday. It was my first trip to London and as my hotel was booked at the last minute, there weren’t many choices for hotel that are affordable and located near both Euston and St Pancreas train stations. I... More

The room was super clean, has a desk & armoir for clothes. The breakfast is included & I loved the typical English breakfast... More

Good location, 150 metres to Goodge Street station. Breakfast is ok. Staff quite friendly. But... value for money = 0. I stayed here because it was the only one I found the day before. I had booked another hotel but they cancelled it the day before, so there was no choice, everything fully booked. I paid nearly 200 pounds for... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in July 2011. This hotel is very convenient to Goodge Street tube and a very easy walk to the British Museum. The staff was very helpful and we would definitely stay here again. More

My mother and I stayed at Arran house for a long weekend in July. The experience had its ups and downs, but unfortunately the end conclusion is that a lot of elements in this hotel can be improved upon. 1. Our room. The negatives: Our double room was the smallest I have ever seen. There was no room for the... More

My husband, 12 year old daughter,and I stayed here for 3 nights. I was concerned I had chosen the wrong hotel after reading recent reviews, but was pleasantly surprised. We had the family room on the first floor which was cramped, but not unusually so for London. It looked out on a delightful little garden area that was open to... More
