A great location at a reasonable cost. This is not a standard hotel but has more of a hostel environment. The first floor rooms are very small with only basic necessities. The upper floor rooms are spacious. Unfortunately, inspite of advance booking, the good rooms were all booked and so we had to settle for the small one, where movements... More

It is cost effective place especially for all Indians who visit London. As assumed by everyone, its not meant only for students, however, families for tourist visits, working population also stays there. It saves a lot of money as Breakfast and dinner are inclusive of the room rent. Since, this is located in the central London, almost all the tourist... More

It is located in central london with a short walk to warren street tube station. They served very tasty indian breakfast and dinner. I believe the food is catered from local restaurant. It is a nice place for travelling alone or with family. We had a deluxe room with private bath, clean sheets and room was adequate, looked more like... More

I have stayied in this hotel for two nights. The first one in double en-suite room on the 5th floor which was very tidy and quite nice. The second night in a single room on the 1st floor as far as I remember, as the double room was already booked. The single room was not cheap as it was Saturday... More

This is a Indiant student hostel and not a hotel. But this is the best option for an Indian. It is atral London and 3 mins walk from Warren Street uderground station. The rooms are very nice and you have option of coomon bath or attach bath. They provide you Indian breakfast and dinner. The cost is absolutely very very... More

Although very old fashioned with no frills - it is a clean and very safe place to stay. The restaurant serves south Indian cuisine, which for an Indian is helpful. The only negative point is that it was difficult to book initially as their website is not protected so it is difficult to book through a credit card, while that... More

I as looking for somewhere very cheap to stay for one night , after going to a show in Leicester Square. If you re thinking of staying here, you need to be clear that it is a student hostel, not an hotel. It is very, very basic. You pay in advance and may be asked to pay a key deposit... More

We stayed in one of their 'luxury' rooms with ensuite. Going to sleep I noticed what I thought was a ladybird on the sheets and brushed it off. Then more and more 'ladybirds' appeared. Three in the space of a few minutes. We were horrified. I have never been in a place with bed bugs before. We shoved them into... More

I stayed in this Hostel for 5 nights. It's setup is of a very typical Govt hostel. Best suited for students. very small rooms. The hospitality is NIL. While interacting with the staff, you feel like you are talking to the wardens of the hostel where you are a student. They behave like they are doing a big favour to... More

We booked this hotel through the net before travelling to London from India. After having gone through on line reviews on trip advisor of various hotels , BBs available in London, and getting tired of selecting one, we finally settled on this one. Not having stayed in Warren Street area earlier, we were a little apprehensive but we were surprised... More
