The location is great Walking distance from the tube. However the rooms are tiny. They have two sizes for Double Rooms Small and Large The small is really tiny ... no space to move around The larger one is fine ... So call and make sure that u r getting the one with the sofa .. The other room can't... more

2 minutes walk from the british museum and easy access to west end. so location is great. recent refurb by the look of things and the room was clean and bathroom newish. room was a triple i.e. twin with campbed so was a bit cramped. we paid £145 which seemed reasonable value for london! room however was stifling hot. on... more

My husband & I stayed there with friends for a long weekend in June 2008. Rooms were fine - probably above average size for central London, and bathrooms were very well appointed with full size bath & separate shower. My main complaint was breakfast. The restaurant apparently has 2 AA rosettes but clearly no-one told the breakfast chef. For £21... more

A truly dreadful hotel. The room was hardly bigger than the uncomfortable foam double bed. The temperature was sweltering - despite it not being particularly warm outside. The window could not be left open as the traffic noise was so loud. The trucks thundering past made the sash windows rattle. I have never been in a hotel room (despite back-packing... more

I decided to try this hotel in spite of mixed reviews because all the others nearby and of similar price had consistently bad reviews. I was cosy but not suffocated, comfortable and quiet. My single room had double glazing with blinds enclosed, so I never worked out how to look outside. Gower Street was reasonably close to St Pancras for... more

It is located at a very convenient spot. Was very clean and the lobby was lavender-scented. It might be tiny and there aren't any lifts (had a terrible time dragging my luggages up and down the stairs) but i find it rather cosy. Nice reception staff and breakfast was delicious. Although the price is a little steep for a b&b,... more

I love this place. It's close to tube stops and the British Museum, and the Beatles stayed there for chrissakes! All of the other complaints here are valid, I'm sure, but also just part of the aging, authentic house that it is. I would stay here again. more

It is easy to see why this so called hotel has a self appointed 4 star rating. The web descriptions and photos do not really show a true picture. (Clever photographer) and do not indicate that the rating is self appointed. We booked a double room for 4 nights at a reasonable price between 125 - 145 per night between... more

We stayed at the Hotel Cavendish for a two night break at the beginning of December 2007. The London trip was a 40th birthday present from my husband and we took in the sights of London visited he Terracotta Army Exhibition and had a great meal at Fifteen - Jamie Oliver's. The Hotel was okay it had everything you needed... more
