We stayed for two nights andf found the Hotel well located for Tube Station but Noise levels are horrendous at 6 o'clock in the morning!! Vehicles reversing beeps/ Bottle Banks being emptied/ Metal being clashed about/ Trolleys clashing on concrete floors. Made worse by having Single glazing, still loud with the windows shut. Decor is dated, staff not fully conversant... more

The advantage to this hotel is the location..steps from Russell Square Tube station. That's it, that's all. The rooms are dingy, the bathroom shower had brown crusty bits on the ceiling and walls, no shower cap provided. The toiletries consist of multi-purpose shower/shampoo gel in a tiny, tiny bottle and a bar of soap. The toilet wouldn't flush...you had to... more

Our family had a nightmare stay at this hotel. We arrived on Friday night and my wife and I were to fly home on Monday morning. We had made arrangements for our teenage son to stay in another room at the hotel for two more nights before he flew to another country. Although I had a voucher proving that we... more

I was looking for a simple clean hotel for 3 nights at the end of the trip. We left London for two days and had to return to it before flying home. The hotels I know and prefer had no rooms so in spite of my reservations I allowed myself to be persuaded by my agent and booked The President... more

Having read other reviews, to be honest we feared the worst. And on first seeing the hotel I admit it isn't the smartest or most up to date of hotels. However, the hotel was spotless, (although slightly worn in places). Our room was comfortable and clean, (what more do you want at this price in central London?!). The bed sheets... more

The President Hotel, at Russell Square in London, is nothing more than a DUMP! Lesson for London is that if the hotel rate is too good to be true -- it IS too good to be true. The location, just around the corner from the Russell Square tube station, is convenient, and the very young staff were friendly, but that's... more

My wife and I stayed at The President 12-16 October 2009. First impressions weren't bad. The decor could do with a little bit of TLC, but that is a minor issue. On arrival, we were greeted by friendly check in staff who checked us in with no problems at all. We were advised that we were going to be in... more

The room was adequate but no more than that. The food was appaling and the atitude of one of the Chefs was poor, in fact he was downright rude! . The rest of the staff however, were most polite and helpfull. I was'nt aware of any air condisioning system in opperation. Much of the Hotel was stuffy and smelly. more
