Family stay after Lords cricket
We stayed here with our two children as was heading to Lords for the cricket. Great location for that and a nice big room with two doubles but other than that this is a hotel we will not be returning too. Our room was really very tired, broken chair in room, carpets torn and held down with tape on stairs, one of the bed was so saggy it made us laugh, the bathroom was grim, toilet needed descaling, broken floor tiles, wood on edge of bath was damp and rotten, ceiling paint was peeling. It could be a wonderful hotel given some love and the staff we met were lovely.

The hotel was not clean overall. The room was dirty especially the bathroom. The key pad at the main entrance is faulty, we struggled to get in after midnight. The staff were nice. The area is nice. Shops close by and a tube station.

Terrible room, Avoid!
Room wasn't in the best condition when I arrived which was late due to work. Shower didn't work, TV didn't work, slight dribble of lukewarm water from the sink was the best you could get. Room was very dirty, big crack on the window. Definitely one of the worst hotels I've stayed in & I use quite a few in the area. Only reason I used this one was that the usual price was much cheaper; now I know why. Looks like I got the room these hotels use for the late check in singlesvstaying just the one night.

Basic, Needs Upgrading & Renovating
This hotel is at the low end of the pricing spectrum and the reviews are not good, so my expectations were low. Sadly my stay did not even reach those low expectations. The telly in the room was broken, the remote was broken and repeiared with gaffa tape, the bath was stained , there were splashes on the wall. The room needed renovation. However the price was low .

The unique thing about this hotel is that the front brick work is bowed to the extent that the 3rd floor windows have at least 150 mm / 6 inch gap around them a risk of pedestrians getting killed seriously injured when this gives way ( I have pictures that will be going to council and heath and safety) our bedroom fire door did not fit in frame , the floor dipped by several inches and bounced as my grandson walked across it 1 socket in room all others blanked off ( this was on far side of room so my wife couldn’t use her sleep apnea machine ) the toilet set fell off the first time it was lifted , stained bath , tiles replaced with scrap of plasterboard after repair to toilet grouting totally removed above toilet , fan grinding and full of dust / fluff , top floor loft hatch open with telescopic ladder up to it ( fire hazard) . lock to room door no metal keep , and only just latched cover off fire alarm relay unit top floor. If you look at the lobby picture on here and imagine 25 yrs of doing nothing to it you might be close to actual conditions, we arrive back at 11.45 pm to 3 people on door step attempting to enter the key pad only showed random numbers took 20 mins to gain access, and forgot I opened the window a bit and it was so lose it almost fell out

Cheap, central, but very tired.
Somerset House is cheap, but the building is in dire need of a total overhaul. The chap at the desk was friendly, but the room was tired and the sound of creaking floorboards kept me awake for much of the night.

Hotel was sufficient for sleeping and that’s about it. Place was old and rundown, definitely needed a good paint job. Check-in was not helpful - it was later in the night and person at desk didn’t explain anything, we were told to pay upon check out and given 1 towel when 2 guests were staying. The next morning payment was finally taken as we were unknowingly about to be locked out of our room. We came home late that following night and the front door was locked so we used the doorbell to get in - the person at the front desk scolded us for not using a code provided for the front door - however we were never told about said code or given information about it. Fine place to stay if it’s in budget but don’t expect a stellar hotel.

Loved staying here.
I don't understand the bad ratings. My room was clean, warm and exactly what I wanted. Right in the heart of everything, as a solo female traveller I never felt unsafe. Everything was always open around and everything was well lit. Was easy to get to two major train stations with my suitcase. There are a lot of stairs and no lift, but the staff were super friendly and helped me with my suitcase to the top floor. They also helped me at 6am when I lost my key card. (thank you 🙏) The building is old, so expect it to not be in tip top shape. But they are actively making repairs. Regardless it's still a nice place to stay. Would absolutely stay again. Exactly what I was looking for.

Clean, which is good, but decoration half finished. A bit of a building site. Half the slats on the bed had fallen through, barely useable. Location is good though, and friendly staff.

The property needs reburbishment. The communal areas especially the walls need repainting. I had an issue with being given the wrong key but this was sorted out by the very helpful man in reception. There was no soap, shampoo or gel for showering. However the room was nice and the bed very comfortable and the wifi and television worked well.
