This basement room was small with a tiny bathroom.

For bigger people it will be difficult to go to the toilet or douche cabin.

We took a room with a bathroom in it, small

Beware that many rooms do not have a bathroom, and those that do, the bathroom is the size of a small closet.

Small bar of soap and wall-mounted shower gel provided plus a decent hand-towel and bath mat.

I have to say I have never in my 62 years been in a smaller bathroom.

Bed was comfy, only gripe was the shower was bit of a squeeze.

I tripped and stubbed my toes the first few times and I was afraid I'd trip and fall exiting the bathroom if I forgot to step down.

but well equipped  , with a toilet and shower in two further small rooms .

On arrival we found out we had a shared bathroom, this was NOT stated on the booking whatsoever!!

Only downside was the size of the bathroom- it was quite crammed.

It did mean I had to leave the shower room door open to manoeuvre to dry myself.

but the downside was the crazy interior plan - the shower was in one tiny room, the bathroom in another, the mirror someplace else and the sink for brushing your teeth and washing your hands was inside the bedroom.

but did have a small basin in the corner.

Water pressure in bathroom was too low for a decent shower.

Bathroom outside the room so you may need to wait for shower.

I would definitely recommend if you're comfortable with a Queen bed with four feet on all sides.

There were two single beds that were very comfortable.

Stayed for one night as I was attending a seminar at King's Place close to King's Cross.

The Alhambra is a cute hotel located just a half block from Kings Cross train station.

but this is due to the location near to 
King's Cross St. Pancras station.

I prefer to stay around the Kings Cross stroke Bloomsbury area which I have on many occasions as I find it a great base for striking out on the tourist trail, with Kings Cross being handy for the buses and tube.

On the plus side the bed had lots of places where you could tie restraints to it - this made for a fun evening for us.

Gilbert Monument, National Centre for Circus Arts, Statue of the Viscount Alanbrooke, St. Mary's Church, St Mary's Church, St John's Waterloo, Twizy Tours, London Central Mosque, The Punch Bowl, Iraq and Afghanistan Memorial, Beauty Rose, Illuminated River, Crystal Palace Spa, The Yacht Concierge, Mark Street Gardens, Shanghai Touch Massage, Finsbury Circus Gardens, Pret-a-Train, Puttshack Bank, International Brigade Memorial, The Nursery Theatre, Association Gallery, The Queen's Walk, City of London Jewellers, Thai Refresh Massage, London Cookery School, Shay & Blue, Ned's Club Spa, Havanna, Red Gallery, St James Garlickhythe, Overtures, No.

Being a tall lad the single bed was perfect even with my Giraffe proportioned legs.

The hotel is very clean, the bed was very comfortable, and the WiFi very fast.

This is a small hotel located a short walk to the St Pancras train station and King's Cross underground.

Hard to beat location only 2 min walk to St Pancreas International Station and 5 min walk to Kings Cross Station.

It is conveniently located on a quiet alley that is a mere four minute walk to the King's Cross subway station.

This hotel is a stone’s throw from Kings Cross station, down a quiet side street.

Two fluffy towels decoratively arranged on the bed.

Perfectly located for Kings Cross station, directly opposite a tube stop of you want to use it as a hotel to see a few sights along the underground.

Good:
Excellent location near St. Pancras and Kings Cross.

Everything was immaculately clean , the bed was very comfortable, and the bed linen was of very high quality .

This B&B is visibly smarter and classier than the many others on the same street, and literally two mins walk from Kings Cross St Pancras - on the road bang opposite.

Not a problem, there is a well known pub chain in St Pancras station which opens at 9am for all day breakfast.

Prices are reasonable (considering breakfast is included).

Take the 8.54am to Calais and you’ll have time to enjoy the awesome breakfast buffet at this great accommodation.

We had a fine stay here — the place is tidy, the service attentive, the location exquisite, the breakfast fine if not outstanding.

Breakfast from 7 to 9 was far too restrictive for a family holiday - missed it each morning of a three-night pre-booked stay.

Super WiFi connection and a great continental breakfast to end your stay or start your stay.

This hotel is clean convenient and the breakfast is good with great price to stay.i strongly recommend people to stay here .The reception is very friendly and later I learn is a family own business.

There's a decent breakfast included in the room rate, and the staff was unfailingly polite and nice.

Every employee was very friendly and helpful, the breakfast was delicious, and the room was clean and tidy.

Great breakfast and staff friendly and helpful.

Breakfast is good with bacon, eggs, pancakes, cereals, yoghurt etc.

at a similar price, including breakfast - the Alhambra.

Breakfast was also a squeeze, and only available from 7-9am.

The breakfast was the biggest surprise, with a really wide range of goodies on offer, including freshly made pancakes and porridge.

Friendly staff
Continental breakfast included.

The included breakfast was very good , and gluten intolerant guests are catered for .

An email awaited me later asking for description and photos of the charger, followed before I had a chance to answer with another to say it had been found and please to let them have a card number to cover the return postage (which I called in the following morning).

He needed to charge his phone and without that adapter he would have been greatly inconvenienced.

You can use your pre-loaded Oyster Card, the same as you would for the Tube, and it’s only £ 8.10 (single fare) to Gatwick.

but had to be put through as 3 separate transactions which was quite annoying.

The well known international booking agency I used (and use about twice each week without this problem - ever) will only provide a confirmation of the total paid and not show a VAT compliant invoice.

When you book they take 1 pound without notice and 1 week before the date they took all the amount saying they have preauthorization on your card and waiting for the bank approval, it wasn't nice since we can cancel 4 days without notice or penalty.

Book this room and put the extra money on your oyster card.

Please note that the hotel applies a 3% surcharge if you pay by credit card.

They charge an extra 3% if you use a credit card.

though charged 3% extra to pay by credit (rather than debit) card.

They receptionist charged my a much higher amount than it said on booking, caused by currency exchange.

Charged twice for my stay due to error - hopefully get this sorted asap.

Two problems - after arriving we were told that the agreed fare was for cash and if paid by credit it was more expensive.

We were given a laminated card with our room number on and told to put our luggage in the breakfast room in a bit at the bottom of the stairs with the card on top.

even though the check in time was in the afternoon without additional charges.

but elected to pay cash to avoid the 3% surcharge.

The hotel wanted to be paid in cash or there would be a surcharge for a credit card, this we had not come across since south america.

The Alhambra earns our five-star rating by ticking all the boxes: perfect location near St. Pancras/King's Cross rail stations; comfortable, clean, and well-maintained; friendly and helpful staff; convenient amenities including taxis arranged to and from the airports and discount tour tickets; and reasonable rates.

It is well decorated, spotlessly clean and all staff were friendly and helpful.

The staff were all really friendly and chatty, asking my kids if they enjoyed Paris etc.

The location was ideal, the welcome was friendly and the room was spotless.

Friendly staff, easy and fast check-in/out.

Clean, in fact,  spotless so, quiet, friendly staff, no complaints at all.

All of the staff are super friendly, helpful, and wonderful.

All of the staff we met were very friendly and helpful.

The hotel is cozy and all of the people we interacted with were friendly and helpful.

Whilst the hotel is clean enough and the staff friendly, the rooms are tiny.

The staff at the Hotel were very friendly and professional.

The hotel was spotless with modern furniture, very comfortable bed, friendly staff and a good breakfast.

19th cent gentrified houses turned into hotels down the street with quaint narrow corridors.

Further, I could not reach the wardrobe hangers, they have been placed too high. Access to the rooms is extremely difficult - steep narrow stairs and impossibly narrow corridors and (fire?)

We were on the top floor, which was hard to access along tiny corridors and the room had a 3/4 bed, and there was hardly enough room to move in the room.

Be prepared--the hotel common areas, hallways, and rooms are very, very small.

The rooms are very, very small and it is difficult to manoeuvre luggage in narrow corridors and staircases.

The corridors are a little tight for space if you are carrying luggage and note that there is no elevator,

An unusual room with a door into a small hallway, a separate toilet, a separate shower and another door through to three single beds where the basin is also situated.

The hotel corridors are narrow and a lot of steps so not very good if your mobility is limited.

True, the corridors are narrow, the rooms are small and there is no lift.

The rooms are very small and, as other guest have pointed out, stairs and corridors are narrow.

Unfortunately not a good place for family with small children,  narrow corridors  and stair cases.

There was a slight hint of damp in the corridor,

Somewhat typical for London in this price range: .three floors up, no lift..shared bathroom down the hall, tiny bed for two.

The toilet was down the hall and the door right in front of your face when you closed it.

the rooms were tiny and so were the corridors leading to the room,

The corridors are a little tight for space and there is no elevator, so if mobility is an issue then please bear this in mind,

Corridors and the staircase is very narrow.

You can hear your neighbors talking in their rooms, doors opening and closing, being locked and unopened and people walking in the halls.

We stayed at this hotel just for one night having popped down to London to visit the National gallery and Tower Bridge.

Don't miss the British museum (free) and if you hop off at Trafalgar square you can go in the national gallery for free also (some Picasso, Van Gogh, Degas, Cezanne).

Can’t say enough about the staff, especially since I messed up big time.

But it was clean, there was a small desk and an OK sized bathroom, so basically you don't need more.

We were surprised to be directed to a different building across the street from reception.

The 24 h reception very kind and the location perfect!

Thank you to both members of staff, sorry I didn't get your names, for treating us so well, Katrina

Bruno and his staff are really very welcoming.

Well priced, Very helpful and great service.

Perfect in every way,,,,,a short work from Euston station,,,close to the underground, great bedroom and amazing polite staff.

Disappointed that there was no window view for the cost, just a cramped weird courtyard on the basement level, so the room was dark and kind of gloomy The complementary cocktail hour was nice

I would also say that the hotel is very dark.

We had a ground floor room which was far too dark. It was in an absolute nightmare when getting ready (this is why I only gave 4 stars)

but not too late….. definitely would benefit from black out blinds or curtains for those of us who like the dark but that’s the only mild negative 😊

The rooms were a little small for what we paid and very dark not much day light getting in at all, the bed was really comfortable and our room very quiet.

For proper sleep I need to be able to make the room completely 100% dark.

Upon check in we were disappointed in our small room, down a dark hallway in the back of the hotel, two rooms experienced street/pub noise. .

But the rooms themselves (I saw 2 of them - quite identical) are very small and dark.

Unfortunately the only mirror for hair drying was on the inside of the wardrobe door and even when opened wide, it was quite dark.

We found the room way too dark and thus it appeared small.

However, the room we stayed in on the ground floor was very dark (walls on 3 sides of the window and no direct sunlight) and there was no way to open the window and get some fresh air in.

It was a bit dark (fine for reading in bed, just harder to see what's in your suitcase).

The staff is always genuinely service-oriented, warm and friendly.

This hotel was perfect in every way: perfect location near tons of amazing food and entertainment and an easy walk to all the best sites; the perfect room, super clean and very comfortable with all the amenities I wanted (fridge, microwave, coffee, etc); and perfect staff, super friendly and helpful.

The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful.

Very friendly staff with awesome food recommendations.

very friendly staff , clean rooms , good service all over , away form the crowd of Soho even located at Soho , very close to metro access and full of bars cafes around I highly recommend when you are traveling to London

Super location , friendly and helpful staff.

The hotel staff was incredibly friendly and made every effort to accommodate us.

The staff was very friendly and more than helpful.

The staff was very friendly and asked whether we had already some idea what we wanted to do during our stay.

Stayed two nights and was blown away by the friendly reception we received.

From the moment we arrived the service from the reception staff was 5 stars ..  friendly and helpful, showed us to our room (I think was room 3022).

We were greeted by a lovely lady named Rajani at reception who was very welcoming and friendly.

The staff was friendly and offered me a glass of wine both evenings.

The front desk team are all super friendly and helpful always willing to go above and beyond what you would usually expect.

but very clean room, quiet, great location, the staff was extremely friendly!

a pleasant stay, a very friendly staff dicret and always ready to help.

The most friendly, helpful and amazing team led by gorgeous Pablo.

Friendly and helpful staff with the ideal location.

No restaurant in the hotel which usually wouldn't be an issue

but did not bother us: no restaurant in hotel (but you can collect drinks and snacks at reception), Soho Square nearby slightly seedy at night time, no view from room and difficult access for taxis because of lots of small oneway streets.

Breakfast at the hotel is only in room service.

but really, in London, who wants to eat in a hotel.

While there isn't a traditional restaurant in the hotel, this was never an issue for me as fresh breakfast was brought directly to my room at the exact time I had requested it.

but also a micro-wave for heating  up food, and a small washing up sink with basic dishes and cutlery available so you could bring back food to eat in the room, 

There is no restaurant in the hotel which is a smart strategy as there are so many cafes nearby that offer wonderful breakfasts - but they do offer continental breakfasts that can be brought by room service.

No restaurant at the hotel (though they do offer breakfast room service, which we didn't end up using)

No restaurant in the hotel, as it is small and boutique,

I saw some people's comments about no restaurant in the hotel.

And there's no reason to have a restaurant in a hotel in Soho!

There is no restaurant in the hotel (but hundreds within 5 mins walk).

We found great Cafes for breakfast as there is no restaurant in the hotel.

We Would likely stay here again because of the location.

A lovely hotel, with a fantastic location close to the theatres, Covent Garden and Oxford street.

Location is perfect for anyone looking to shop, visit tourist attractions or looking for nightlife.

This is great hotel located right in the heart of SOHO.

Great location (at the centre of London’s tourist activities), nice comfortable and functional room and very good service from the courteous staff.

Location of this hotel in SoHo couldn’t be more perfect.

My stay at the resident soho was brilliant, the location is unbeatable!

The Hotel is located in one of the most beautiful areas of London, in the heart of Soho, close to train and bus stations, restaurants, shops within walking distance, very kind hotel staff, especially the maintenance engineer Nando, spacious and well-kept rooms with all comforts, mini kitchen with nespresso coffee, very comfortable bed,  the big Smart TV, an unforgettable experience, Highly recommended!

Location was in the middle of Soho, really close to Tottenham Court Rd Tube and lots of great restaurants, bars, Oxford st etc.

The location of Resident Soho was the best ever!

Excellent location, the room is clean and comfortable.

Everything was perfect in terms of room, location, members benefits such as the discount and early check in and late check out.

Best location, closet o to train station, shops, clubs, restaurants and many more.

Extremely helpful staff and superb location.

The hotel is also in a fantastic location for enjoying central London.

From there, the main tourist attractions are within easy walking distance - the National Gallery, the Palace of Westminster, Buckingham Palace, the Embankment, the British Museum, Covent Garden, you name it.

Not only was it the perfect location to easily get to all the sights—including The National Gallery Museum, Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey and the famed West End Theater District—the amazing staff made us feel special and cared for in every interaction.

25 min walk to Southbank centre, 5 min walk to theatres, 10 min to National gallery.

This hotel is in a great location: within walking distance of Trafalgar Square, the National Gallery, multiple underground stations, theaters, and many, many restaurants and cafes.

It's close to Trafalgar Square, The National Gallery, London Eye, Big Ben, Buckingham Palace.

And it's close to the Underground (the subway), and within a 15-30 minute walking distance of the main attractions, such as Buckingham Palace, Parliament, the National Gallery and Trafalgar Square.

Minutes walk from Covent Garden, British Museum, Univ of London, National Gallery and National Portraiit Gallery theaters.The well-appointed rooms are comfortable and have kitchenettes, making breakfast easy and inexpensive.

The staff were very attentive and provided a complimentary bottle of wine when they discovered it was our anniversary and gave us invaluable tips on places to eat.

I chose this hotel because it offered a room with a little kitchenette which I love having when I’m traveling so I don’t have to eat every meal out.

Shops, theatres, restaurants and anything you need within a short walk!

Steps away to fabulous restaurants and theatre!!

The hotel is close to the main streets with many bars and restaurants along the way.

A beautiful hotel in the middle of SOHO - A short walk to all you need of restaurants, theaters, shopping.

It is surrounded by delicious  restaurants, grocery store, shopping, and sight-seeing.

Great  hotel in Soho with many restaurants and pubs around and 200m from Oxford street.

Suggest more soft drink options on room service

Fantastic location in the heart of Soho, close to all of the bars, pubs and restaurants, very helpful staff on reception and we were made to feel very welcome, room was very spaciuos with great amenities, bed was very comfy, all in all a great stay, would highly recommend and we will return soon.

It's good for nightlife, food, a comedy show, shopping, and if you want to hit London attractions, you can walk to Covent, Piccadilly, Chinatown, Leicester and have metros stations close by.

The hotel is in a great location, close to shops and restaurants.

The Resident Soho is centrally located around great restaurants and shops.

Almost hit the mark had it not been for an uncomfortable night sleep.

The 3rd and 4th accomodations are single small sofa beds extremely uncomfortable and you have the risk of having also a camping mattress.

but the Hotel was disappointing and very overpriced,   Couldn't even get IN the room with our luggage, no where to put it, crawled over it, put one in bathroom,  could barley walk around bed, I was very disappointed and uncomfortable  for a three day stay.

but the bed is extremely uncomfortable, feels like uneven overused mattress.

the bed is obviously a twin put together and the hump in the middle makes for an uncomfortable sleep. .

Hard uncomfortable foam pillows - not feather or fibre. 2.

We would not stay here again because it was so uncomfortable and we all slept poorly.

One gentlemen’s club is on the same block which may lead to an uncomfortable conversation with a child

but we didn't find it uncomfortable as we were out and about most of the day.

This is the place that I would think of when I want a place to rest and relax after a long day of walking and visiting places around London.
