Thistle Euston

I read several reviews beforehand and wasn't expecting much. The hotel is indeed tired and the rooms need updating badly. There were no washcloths in the bathroom and the temperature in the shower was difficult to get below scalding hot. The staff on the other had were quite pleasant, although there is no fitness centre and they had no advice on where to find one, even though there are at least two within easy walking distance. The wireless Internet service in the room kept losing the signal. I told the staff and they did not offer to refund the 10 GBP fee. Breakfast was average but the staff again were very pleasant. Although it is very near a train station the hotel is very quiet, which is a big plus for central London. I got a very good price for this hotel on line and would have been very disappointed had I paid 200 GBP which is the published rate. If you want convenience, the price is low, and you expect a two star room then you will not be disappointed.

For £170 plus per night I expect something a little smarter. Whilst the room was a good size it felt very tired. Poorly decorated, bathroom had seen better days. The lifts are very small and can't cope with the volume of traffic at peak periods. On the plus side, they serve a decent breakfast and of course it is well located. Food in Brasserie 43 was well cooked and presented but bar prices are extortionate.
