Elysee Hotel  

The hotel for me was within walking distance of the city centre. I booked the hotel for the location and and the price. When you book a hotel at that price and in that location, there is always a question about the hotel. However, while the room was small, it was clean and the shower excellent. Given the fact that I was not in the room for any length of time, only the cleanliness was important, so I was pleased with what I found. The breakfast was basic, however in keeping with what was advertised and had what I would normally have in a morning. The staff were attentive and pleasant. I would definitely stay there again.

As I said, not much time spent in the hotel. My needs were met, nothing to say really in this section

Since the hotel is very close to the lancaster gate metro station it was easy to reach the center of the city. Ladys that serve tea/coffee for breakfast were very friendly.

There was sweage smell in the room coming from the bathroom. It was annoying and disgusting. While I was drying my hair the hair dryer suddenly stopped, when I asked help from the reception, the guy who answered the phone talked really rude to me. I asked for a replacement for the hair dryer and he said the dryer was old so there's nothing to do but wait, they didn't have anything to replace with that old machine. His attitudes were really rude and although his duty is to help the customer he just left.

Tv didn't have any British channels. Could do with free view.

Close to the city, public transport

I booked two single rooms and the size of the room was like two beds, very small. Bathroom as well. Comparable to hostel room in Honk-Kong :). Breakfast very simply for 7,50gbp.

Great location and good value

Location

W.C. pan didn't work properly. Kennel-sized rooms might be ok for 30 pounds, but not for 79 (without breakfast). By the way, when I connected to hotel's wifi hotspot, their web site said prices start from 50 pound. Are there rooms worse than mine was? Or do they surcharge booking.com?

The staff was nice The location is convenient

The room was exceedingly small

Close to transport and quick stroll to park. The room was clean and tidy and the bed was very comfortable.

Although the room wasn't spacious it was adequate for a short weekend trip. The only problem with the room was the shower, I couldn't get a decent flow of water even when turning it on full blast.

Bed comfy. Good location.

My room was cold. I was told at reception that the central heating isn't switched on until 20:00h. In the morning the shower was freezing. I was told at reception that I should have called them because it is a common problem in the hotel to do with the plumming and they can sometimes fix the problem. True enough, it seemed common enough that another guest was at reception complainIng about the same thing. Walls thin - definitely take ear plugs with you Corridoors dark - they have a system where the lights go off automatically. Trouble is that they don't go on automatically until you have already stumbled around in the dark for a while I expect to pay a premium in central London, and while I don't expect the Ritz for £107 per night, I can give you a long list of hotels in the vicinity that do significantly better than this one. It feels like a naff b & b that you should pay less than half of this for.

Very friendly staff and able to get into the room on arrival which was prior to check in and option to leave luggage for the day after check out. Every thing was very clean and the small room very efficiently set up.

Convenient location, easy to find and close to the city. Nice having staff on hand at all times.

Whilst I was aware that I had booked a small single room, I was a bit surprised at how small it was (very tricky with a case!)

The room was small and intollerably overheated but the bathroom was impeccable. The price is good for this part of London, which is, in fact, a very pleasant area away from tat of Praed Street. I would stay again on price and cleanliness as all In want to do is lay my head down.

Friendliness of staff and cleanliness of rooms

Very small rooms. Poor and expensive WiFi connection.
