I stayed here during the London Marathon and will be staying again in July. We had a twin room which was very clean, if a bit worn (but it is student accommodation after all). The beds were very comfortable and the heating very efficient. The price of £53 for the night for a twin room was marginally more than a... More

If you are under the age or 25 (or want to feel that way) or have a large family, this dorm property might do for a night in central London. Hostels are a better bet, however. It is difficult to find, even with a London A-Z, and especially in the rain. Take a taxi. Remember that the room barely has... More

All I have to say is that it was much better than I expected. The bed was a bit old, but good enough for a couple of days. As it was my first time sharing bathroom, I was really afraid I would regret this choice, but it was really clean and I had no problem at all. Actually, I did... More

We needed an inexpensive, comfortable, clean, quiet room in a central location, with a decent breakfast, no frills required. That's exactly what we got, with the bonus of an excellent breakfast. If you don't need TV, minibar, etc, are happy to trot across the corridor to the very clean and modern loo and shower, (basin in bedroom) like to have... More

Hi stayed here because i was doing London Marathon this year and have to say it is very good value for money being very central to London with underground tube stations only a stones throw away. The hotel looks average from the outside but staff are very helpful, bedrooms are clean and basic (no tele) but who needs one of... More

I stayed here over the Easter holidays with my 11 year old son. I was a bit nervous as I've never stayed in this type of accommodation before. I need not have worried. The accommodation was clean, warm and adequate for our needs. The room was basic but it had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. The showers were... More

Stayed here for 2 nights in March 2012. The outside looks quite grim but it is nicer inside; the rooms are typical basic halls of residence with a table, sink & bed (which was comfy). I had room 111 which over looked a yard, it was quiet (no street noise or banging doors) & I slept well. The staff are... More

Thank you for your comments. We’re very sorry to hear that the toilets and showers were not up to scratch during your stay, it sounds as though they were well below our normal standards. We’ll ask the housekeeper to look into the issues with the cleaning on the 1st floor so that this is not repeated. In terms of the... More

Carr Saunders Hall truly exceeded my expectations. As a hospitality professional, I didn’t expect so many strong points to compliment such a low cost room. Carr Saunders Halls’ location is a true bonus: only a few minutes away from several main touristic attractions through bus or underground. Carr Saunders is easily accessible at all hours of the day or night... More

If you've ever been a student and had to stay in halls of residence, you'll know exactly what this is like. Located centrally behind Tottenham Court Road near Goodge St, Warren St and Euston Square underground stations, this place is ideal for exploring central London - Oxford St, Covent Garden and the British Museumare all within easy walking distance.

Everything is average. For student's university accommodation across the UK, I think London Halls are generally.. well .. dirtier? I have stayed in many other university accommodation in the UK, LSE halls are by far the second worst in term of hygiene.The room looked like no one really cleaned it for a few days. It gave that kind of dusty... More

Hi, thanks for your comments. We try very hard to keep our rooms clean and it sounds as though in your case we fell below our normal high standards, we’re also sorry to hear that you didn’t enjoy the breakfast. We’ll ask the Housekeeper and Catering Manager to look into what happened here More
