President Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Great hotel. Great location. Great breakfast. Bar closed too early - dead on 11pm. We asked if bar was open at 10.45pm. They said yes but only bottle beer and shorts. Then at 11pm on the dot the bar staff asked us to leave and go sit in reception which was bizarre and not the right environment for having a drink. We took the drinks to our room and drank them there. Apart from this, everything else was excellent."

Four Points Flex by Sheraton London Euston

Four Points Flex by Sheraton London Euston

10/10 Excellent
"Centrally located and very convenient for major transportation links and restaurants, Four Points Flex by Sheraton is an excellent choice for travelers visiting London. I would happily give this hotel a five-star rating ⭐️. I stayed for three nights and had a very pleasant experience. Although the room was small, it provided more than enough space for a single traveler. The room was clean, the hotel was well maintained, and the air conditioning was a welcome feature. The hotel offers excellent value for money, especially considering its location in Zone 1, right in central London. Its convenient location made it easy to explore the city and access public transportation. I took the Piccadilly line from King’s Cross Station all the way to London Heathrow Terminal 5, which was very convenient. The only minor downside was that I was unable to break larger bills to leave a tip. Aside from that, everything was excellent. I highly recommend Four Points Flex by Sheraton to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, affordable, and conveniently located hotel in London."
