Its all about the location for the St. Giles. The hotel has small rooms, standard for £150 per night has no airconditioning, and after staying 4 nights here 21st - 25th May during the hot weather the room was very hot at night, opening the window added only to the road noise. Good breakfast hours of 06:30 till 10:30, hotel... More

Situated centrally for Theatres and Oxford Street. Excellent position which is where this hotel really scores high Not so highly rated is the hotel itself We found the hotel very busy at times and the rooms very small. Perhaps the rooms would have been tolerable if only the air conditioning was adequate. It was totally inadequate and made our stay... More

The location of this hotel was the reason it was booked, i travelled to London with three friends, and we booked two double rooms, which were small, but as we were only using the room as a base for some major shopping and sightseeing, it was perfect! The staff weren't the friendliest, checking in seemed to be an inconvenience really,... More

As a business hotel, this is second to none. It is inexpensive, conveniently located in the heart of London, comfortable and well equipped. The rooms are small, and this hotel does not have the charm of some more expensive hotels. Nor, however, is it remotely as bad as a number of lower quality hotels in the area. I used this... More

Great location, very central, 8 minutes walk to Leicster Sq etc, rooms are fine, clean, maybe a bit small but fine, my one big problem would be the staff, especially those cleaning the rooms, they made so much noise from about 8.30 both mornings of my stay, it was clearly a supervisor giving out to a staff member. It was... More

Location of this hotel could not be better. Two minutes walk to Tottenham Court Road tube station and Oxford Street, five minutes to Soho Square, five minutes to British Museum. If you're visiting London as a tourist, you can walk to so many places (Leicester Square, Covent Garden, Trafalgar Square, Piccadilly Circus, etc.). I've visited London several times and this...

At the Oxford St, Tottenham Court Road junction. Easy walk to Leicester Square theatres. Breakfast room vast and impersonal, but food okay. Room small but functional with good housekeeping. Was able to check in at 10-30 am and leave luggage after checking out. Wifi costs outrageous, but pub a few yards up the road provided free connections.

The only redeeming feature of this hotel is it's location; it's ideal for theatre land so it served it's purpose for us (a trip to the Dominion theatre about 50 yards away). Otherwise, it was nothing more than a glorified YMCA. The queue to check-in was horrendous and the bedrooms are tiny. At 6ft 2inches I barely had room to... More
