Booking via the web. Speedy check in and goot free Wi Fi within the hotel. Great for a business trip and would use the hotel again without a second thought.

Bar is also 24hr, making it great for those like myself that fancy a few after a long day.

Overall the hotel experince was good. The check in was efficient and the room was very clean. Opening the bathroom door I was surprised to find that toilet wedged into a tight corner which when sitting on it, it felt claustrophobic and tight. Great water pressure though in the shower which I find important with long hair. the bed was conformable and I slept well,

I have an evening meal and this was quite nice with nearly unlimited bread, they are always askign if you need more bread and it is served nicely warm. Drinks are expensive and more than the usual. 175ml was £6.95.

It is near the crossrail building site so you get the rumblings of the underground in the room and for a country girl this is noisy, the view from the windows is all concrete buildings so not enticing. Itherwise it is well located with Holborn station virtually next door with several facilities nearby and good pubs and restaurants close too.

The swimming pool was suposed to be nice but I did not get chance to take advantage of this. The breakfast was very good. I had cold meats and cheeses with rolls and fresh orange juuce but there was freshly cut fruit and some lovely looking warm breakfast bits too.

It is overall a good hotel but beware of the costs of some of the drinks and things.
