Latest 5 reviews of Crescent Hotel
It's a fine place to stay as a tourist visiting London
My goal was to stay at a B&B-style hotel, and the Crescent Hotel worked out fine. I would definitely stay again.
It's in a quite area. There are hospitals nearby, so you might hear ambulances.
Our room was small, but we didn't ask for anything large. A room with two twin beds and en suite toilet, sink and shower was just right.
Wireless internet is available, but you must pay six pounds for three days' use.
Breakfast had a fine assortment of typical English choices.
There are two underground stations nearby, quite convenient, both on the Picadilly line to Heathrow. Plus, being close to St. Pancras Kings Cross means being close to the trains.
The office provided a safe deposit box for free, large enough for passports or iPods but not large enough for a laptop computer.
For a short stay there are enough restaurants, pubs and stores around the corner.
The price for a room was £100 per night. While high in general, this is typical for central London, so my score for value is relative to the rates I saw for similar hotels.

Good Location and Comfortable Enough
As other reviews have stated, the location is perfect – near two stations and within walking distance of the British Museum. Our room, a triple with bathroom (shower only), was comfortable and quite large, but there seems to be a variety of room sizes. The hotel offers some sense of staying in a British home. The internet was down one day, a British Telecom problem that affected a wide area. Disadvantages: no lift and the breakfast room was crowded and sometimes full.

nice and quiet hotel
very nice hotel in the centre of london. there is a small park in front of the hotel and a very nice pub (the name is "lord john russel") just around the corner. the rooms was big enough for two people, clean and comfortable. we paid 100 euros for the room (breakfast included). Wireless lan did not work gut in the groundfloor, therefore they did not charge any. the service was very friendly. it was a very good choise!

I would go somewhere else
We booked the Crescent Hotel based on it's review in Frommers and because my Husband knew the area very well. I was disappointed from the moment we walked in the front door. First of all there was someone cleaning the windows above the front door. He didnt stop to let us in and I got drenched with water dragging my bags in the door. Then the Russian/Eastern European woman who works the front desk coldly told us we would have to wait until 2:30 to check in because she "wasn't sure if the room was ready." I was hot annoyed and sweaty from being on the plane and dragging my bags all over town, so the last thing I wanted on my honeymoon was a rude front desk girl.
It only went down from there- the staff is rude- in fact Mrs Cockrel herself was blatantly rude to myself and my husband, the computer room (while nice it is provided) is always full, the beds are hard as rocks and they didnt change the sheets while we were there. They also have very very hard towels and the ones that we were given that were "clean" had black smudges all over them. Another annoying thing is that there is rarely anyone at the desk- and forget it if you need someone before 7:00 or after 10:00- we had to make an emergency call because we needed to check out early, so we called at 10:30 and the girl who answered acted like we had called her in the middle of her wedding.
The rooms were larger though, and we didnt have any problems with the water flow. The breakfast was nice, but not worth the other shortcomings that this hotel has. There were many many other hotels along the Crescent so I would check those out before I booked here.
OH! And it is SUPER loud here. I was awakened by both people above us pounding around and the people who were outside.

Well located, good value
This hotel is well located between three tube stations (King's Cross, Russel Sq and Euston Sq). The hotel is clean and adequately furnished. It's no luxury, but it is sufficient for a few days of London. The breakfast - freshly cooked to order - is one of its strong points, another being the friendly and helpful staff.
