Latest 5 reviews of The Hallam
If location is everything, then this hotel has everything!
I was working near Oxford Circus, so needed a hotel at the very last minute. Location is excellent, 5 minute walk from Oxford Circus.
I only needed a bed for the night, so wasn't too bothered about where I stayed (I will be from now on).
The family who run the hotel were very friendly and helpful when I couldn't switch the TV on (Nice LCD Sony).
However. the room was so tired. 1980's decor (In fact I don't remember hotels looking this tired in the 1980's)! In the shower, broken tiles had been replaced with non fitting tiles, dirty shower screen etc. I had a sink wash (Which is in the room) as I could not face the shower. No security on the windows, so risky to have open at night, so poor ventilation led to a bad nights sleep.
Spend the extra money and treat yourself to the Hilton Metropole or the Holiday Inn, I will.

Buy a box & stay under westminster bridge
This place is a disgrace for what it calls a 3* hotel. I had arrived early and expected to leave my luggage with hotel as arranged as room was not ready. I was informed to leave my bag in the reception area with other bags. No security at all. The person behind the desk was unwelcoming. The place looked like a bedsit with torn chairs.
The room was on 4th floor. It had a lift but two max could get in it and if you have a wheelchair, forget this place.
The whole place is horrible from decor, service and food.
The room was very tiny with two very small wardrobes, the sink was in front of the bed for washing and shaving. Grime around taps and hairs. There was a hair dryer which when turned on gave a burning smell. An empty fridge not turned on. Broken cupboard door below sink. No air conditioning but did supply a fan. Very warm at night and fan to noisy to keep on. Shower and tiolet in one cupboard I would call it. had to do a ballet dance to get out of shower and dry off as tiolet is close to shower. Also had soap from previous occupants which had hairs on.
Breakfast can only be described as basic. Sat down and served two rashers bacon which were over cooked, one sausage that looked like it had been cooked the day before and a greasy egg plus a slice of toast. If you do not eat any of that then you will have to find alternative eating else where.
Checkout was with no thanks at all or was everything ok. Just working on computer and just gave me a dead look as handed key in. No point complaining here. I was glad I had only booked for one night and it needs condemed.
Will not be back and the only thing going for this place was the location. Five mins from Oxford circus and Soho.

Good location for one night, to see a show.
Okay, the hotel is very basic, the furniture is a bit shabby but it was clean, warm and great for the purpose of staying one night to see a west end show (which is what we wanted it for). I had looked at the reviews and found that the more expensive hotels diddn't seem to rate much better. Wouldn't stay here for longer than one night. On the plus side, it is in a good location for sightseeing and the breakfast was served quickly and was well cooked.

Awful
Very poor facilities, the shower was broken, hanging down and dripping constantly. Reporting it to Reception made no difference, nothing was done.
The breakfast was cold and had clearly been on the plate for some time.
Can't be bothered to go on with this. NEVER AGAIN!

Awful
I was embarassed to consider what visitors to the UK who were stopping here might think. Too many faults to list. The only saving grace is the adjacency of the Stag pub just up the street
