to get started.

Vladimir

The breakfast was great. The location was pretty good. Near the Holborn tube stop which is direct from Heathrow and very central to other locations in London. It's near the British Museum which is pretty cool with all things Egypt and free. Good restaurants and Pubs nearby. The street is quiet and authentically British.

The room was extremely warm and the bed had obviously been in the sunlight all day making it extremely difficult to sleep in. It was also a little bare and basic for the price paid.
The location was quiet but very conveniently located both via foot and the underground.

“Nice older hotel and friendly”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 4 nights

If you get a room on the “third floor” it is really on the fourth floor, by American standards...and there are 22 steps to each of the first and second flights, and fourteen for the third...totaling 48 steps in all...not prepared for this! If you don’t do stairs well, best to ask where your room is located. (typical of older properties.) No a/c but had a fan.
Food good, staff very nice. Clean and pleasant. Lovely old building, pretty breakfast room. Good location.

“No elevator, small desk fan for cooling, and uncomfortable beds!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 3 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Thanet Hotel and Booking. Com failed to tell potential customers that there is no elevator in the 4 floor hotel with narrow stairs. On very hot days, I had a small desk fan to cool off, which was very inadequate and still left me hot. The bed had a mattress cover that was wider than the bed, so it sloped toward the floor instead of being a level bed. Horribly uncomfortable and it was so so overpriced. I would never have booked this hotel if they were honest about no elevator and no cooling. They decepted potential customers.
Helpful staff and nice appearance in the lobby.
