We payed 70 pounds for a double bed room, shower and WC included. We were given a room on the street side, with a thin glass window that... more

Me and my wife were only in London for one night, and were looking for a cheap hotel round Kings Cross that was nothing special, just a place that we could get some rest for the one night we were in London! We booked into the Hotel Swinton as it was only £70 for a double room, and was in... more

Dont go here, this hotel is unclean and the staff are awful. Their web site makes the place seem much better than it really is. more

Stayed in this hotel September 2007 for one night. it was booked as a spur of the moment decision and after reading previous reviews I was quite dubious regarding what the hotel would be like, also the fact that the taxi driver had never heard of the hotel made us even more wary! However, on arrival, although basic, the room... more

When you get a room in a London hotel for £42, you can't expect fantastic quality and awesome facilities. What you should be able to expect is politeness from staff, and maybe even a welcoming smile. Having taken my room key out of the hotel (apparently against the rules - not that i'd been told), I was the subject of... more
