“Excellent Value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012

Me, my husband and our 3 month old stayed in one of the suites at the Morgan in last Oct. It's around the corner from the British Museum and just a few blocks from two different underground stations. There are a ton of restaurants, news agents, etc. within a few blocks walk.

The room is large, clean, comfortable and a bit homey. There was even a little kitchenette with a mini fridge, microwave and fridge.

The hot breakfast provided is great! It's made to order and they even accommodated my dairy allergy.

The hotel is split into different buildings. Ex. we had to exit our building and enter another one to access the breakfast. It wasn't an issue...just thought it would help.

My only complaint is the noise from delivery trucks at the museum VERY early in the morning.

Overall, we were very pleased with the hotel and this would be the first place we'd check upon our next visit to London.

“A Great Three Week Stay.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 16, 2012

A great deal, a clean and friendly hotel and a awesome English breakfas. Walking distance to many sights. David and his staff are fantastic. Book a room at the back and you will never know the traffic is only a few feet away. Will come again for sure.

Room Tip: Book a room at the back. Can't hear a sound from the street in these rooms. If you have troubl...

“Great place to stay in central London!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 13, 2012

My wife and I, and our friends from Louisville (another couple) stayed at the Morgan Hotel during the 2012 London Olympics for 9 nights. It is an excellent place to stay and I have nothing but praise for it.

It is located in Bloomsbury, around the corner from the British Museum, and just 3 blocks walk to Tottenham Court Road underground station on the Central (red) line. There is also a bus stop 50 feet from the hotel entrance.

Everything about the hotel is well kept. Our room (207, one stair flight up from the entrance level) was excellently and efficiently laid out, well furnished, very clean, and fresh looking. It had wall-hung nightstands (with lights) on both sides of the bed; an open closet with clothes rod, 4-5 shelves, 2 drawers, and a safe; 2 side chairs and an end table; a flat panel TV mounted in an upper corner of the room; a compact bathroom with sliding entry door, sink, toilet, and shower stall; plenty of hot water in the shower, provided by one of those instant hot water units; and an in-room air conditioner unit mounted high on a wall, with a remote control, that worked great. The bed was comfortable and we were able to store our suitcases underneath the bed. They even provide a washcloth in the bathroom, which we often found missing in our travels around England.

The room rate includes a full English breakfast served 7-9AM in a breakfast room one flight of stairs down from the entrance level (watch your head going down). Breakfast options include self-service corn flakes, orange juice, bananas, and milk; and table service of eggs cooked to order (with sides of tomato, sausage, and bacon), hot toast brought on a caddy, and your own little pot of coffee.

The owner, his sons, and staff were very friendly and helpful. They helped with our luggage, directed us to an attended launderette (laundromat) less than 10 minutes walk away, and booked a private car to Heathrow for us (50 pounds + tip).

“Excellent experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 12, 2012

Couldn't have been happier with the location and service. Basic, clean, comfortable, good breakfast, within easy walking distance of theaters, British Museum and good food and drinking spots. These folks go the second mile. Felt completely comfortable as a solo traveler. I'll go back.

“Good Home Base in London”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 16, 2012

We spent two nights at the Morgan in early September. The room was very comfortable. Bed was great, and the A/C was superb. The room and bathroom were spotless and modern. There was plenty of room to spread out. We were on the same floor as the entrance, so we did not have to get our bags up the stairs. The hallways are narrow, so that could be a little difficult for some. Breakfast was very good...nothing extraordinary, but more than adequate. The hotel is very convenient to the West End, Picadilly Circus, theaters, etc. Given the average price of hotel rooms in London, this is very good value and good quality for the price paid.

Room Tip: Room 202 was excellent, and very quiet.
