Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is situated in a very good location, only a few minutes from Victoria Station, making it convenient for visits around London. The rooms, although a bit noisy due to their view of the street, are very clean. The service was prompt and friendly, yet the breakfast offered wasn't as satisfying as expected. Overall, the value for the price paid is reasonable considering the prime location of the hotel.
For an overnight stay, the hotel offers a comfortable bed, but the rooms had a horrible smell at first, which was easily fixed by turning off the radiator. The location is surprisingly calm considering its proximity to Victoria Station. The service was excellent, with staff being very friendly and accommodating to dietary needs.
The B & B is a perfectly ok place to sleep, with comfy beds, though somewhat small rooms located at the top of a very narrow stairway. The service was cordial but slightly noisy at night due to banging doors. The location is fantastic for sightseeing in London but is around a 5-minute walk from Victoria station. The dining experience was basic, with toast, jam, and yogurt served, and the facilities were satisfactory overall.
My stay at this hotel was truly exceptional. The rooms were excellent, very clean, and felt like a home away from home. The staff was polite and helpful, and the included breakfast, though basic, was sufficient to keep me going. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better experience - it was truly 1st class in my opinion.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant. The location was fantastic, being very close to the underground station and within walking distance to many attractions. The service was impeccable, and the staff were friendly and informative. However, the rooms were a bit on the small side, and noise could be an issue due to their close proximity. The dining options were decent, offering a simple continental breakfast. Overall, it was a great choice for a two-night stay.
The hotel might have a perfect location and be suitable for a short stay or transit, but the lack of cleanliness and maintenance issues make it an uninhabitable place. The rooms are not just outdated but also filthy with thick dust, strange smells, and even mold. The service, though responsive, can be intrusive and unreliable. The dining options are extremely limited, resembling a continental breakfast, and the facilities fall short of basic standards.
My stay at this hotel was just as horrendous as a group of university students would love, but at a great price with a tremendous location. The rooms were big and fairly clean, and the staff at Dover was kind and nice. However, the dining experience was a little disappointing and could be improved. The location was excellent, just a short walk from Victoria Station, but I couldn't sleep well due to disturbing road sounds.
