I believe that is bloomsbury wy where there are lots of shops, restaurants. Russell square garden is just cross the street. Walking distance to British museum, Soho square, Oxford St, and two tube stations nearby. It takes 30 mins from airport to Tottenham court station by Elizabeth line. I don't think Thanet can be ranked 3 star hotel. However, after 3 days stayed over there, the little room with London give me the good memory. ##### YUCHANG Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Adrienne Apr 13, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Basic but a good price. Comfy beds after a day out It was central and about a 10 minute walk to Holborn or Russell Sq tubes. The beds were nice and comfy. We had a lovely powerful shower. The hotel could do with some tlc but for the price we paid it was fine. The guy on reception on the annexe was super helpful ##### Adrienne Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Brian Oct 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Hotel is dated but in a very convenient location for kings Cross abd exploring London.

I have zero complaints. The issue is the mould and damage in the rooms. Cut my foot on a broken tile in the toilet and didn’t dare shower incase the mould spores touched me. Cheapest in the area for a reason but not sure how am health and safety haven’t closed them down. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ade45e92-1617-43d7-8003-163bde9ff324-1757846037292.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7de9b9f3-73c3-4e27-bb0f-7e0cb73162e0-1757846037206.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/83a23516-84ca-4c53-bf47-2d0e9892cb7f-1757846037352.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### carly May 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities We stayed here because our train was cancelled and needed somewhere to stay last minute.

I didn't have the bed bug problem as someone said in the review comments. Had good sleep and it is close to British Museum. ##### Revathy Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Lisa Apr 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The receptionist was most welcoming on arrival and informative. I was able to store my luggage until my room was ready so I could carry on with my day. The reception was open 24 hours a day so I didn't have to worry about my return time. The only negative was, there was a kettle in my room but no coffee or milk. ##### Lisa Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Ian Mar 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Over night due to meetings on two days.

Shower braket broken. Shower curtain and rail missing. Staff informed seemed suprised! So I showed him the picture of the damage. Room was clean and tidy. Good for the price in central London. ##### Raymond Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Simon Sep 21, 2023 #### Budget comfort Great location, dated building. My stay was comfortable, there were issues which I dealt with in reception. It is by no means perfect but if you want to stay in central London on a budget its as good as any. ##### Simon Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### John May 5, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Prepare to be disappointed. Single room in the basement. Awful. Uncomfortable bed. Noisy. Poor bathroom. Creepy. The location is good and it's cheap. That's all. ##### John Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Anna May 19, 2024 #### Good enough Perfect location. Old hotel but it’s good enough for a few days.

Also, the beds were not very comfy and both us felt the springs in the mattress. ##### Fiona Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Faye Jul 25, 2024 Liked: Amenities We just needed a room to sleep in after theatre trip so this did the job. The rooms are dated but were clean and spacious. One night here was fine. Wouldn’t stay longer than that. Good location by Holborn station. Walkable to Covent Garden’s. So suited us. Cheap and easy. ##### Faye Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ming Huei Jun 7, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities A unique experience living in an old building turned hotel. The staircase to our room was narrow and winding. The wooden floor made creaking sound and some parts of the carpet were torn with nails protruding. Despite the creaking floor, the beds and linen were clean and comfortable. Suitable for short stay and backpackers. ##### Ming Huei Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Christopher Jul 6, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities We were extremely disappointed with the Thanet Hotel. The images on Expedia do not come close to what you actually get. For the price we paid, the room was dirty, you could feel the springs through the mattresses, and I’m seriously worried about bringing bed bugs home, although, fortunately , we didn’t experience any bites. There were no hand towels and a minimal amount of all-purpose soap was provided - there was no shampoo or body wash. The shower was mouldy. The staff were indifferent or rude when we interacted with them. The location was great and the area behind the hotel seems to be home to a number of foxes and birds which was nice. ![Thin matresses](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b0116e78-fadf-4927-8633-952415f7d6b4-1751813572114.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Dirty](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/16afc615-8ccf-45ae-aefc-8f1898045b2a-1751813572414.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Dirty](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b1e4fea1-ff85-44c9-8372-c1fbbf5104a7-1751813572920.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Mouldy shower](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d48a2e2a-b1e5-4931-b057-8ea0cea8758b-1751813572852.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Christopher Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kerry Oct 7, 2024 Liked: Room comfort #### Thanet Guest house In the app or online (even in the welcome book! In the room) It said breakfast included. However this wasnt correct. Also the TV remote on off button needs attention. And toilet seat needs securing. All in all though its a lovely place with friendly people and a nice atmosphere so I enjoyed my visit. ##### Kerry Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Stamford Bridge Hotel London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Stamford-Bridge-Hotel.h65802.Hotel-Information) > > [Ruby Zoe Hotel London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Ruby-Zoe-Hotel-London.h87843675.Hotel-Information) > > [WNS Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-WNS-Hotel.h112855979.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunborn London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Sunborn-London.h7857542.Hotel-Information) > > [Sanctum London Belsize Road](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Sanctum-London-Belsize-Road.h16710795.Hotel-Information) > > [Airport Garden Rooms](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Airport-Garden-Rooms.h24931939.Hotel-Information) > > [Star Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Star-Hotel-Bed-Breakfast.h888617.Hotel-Information) > > [Bright, Modern One-bed With Stunning View of Thames](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Modern-1-Bedroom-Stunning-View-Of-Thames.h34448380.Hotel-Information) > > [Roomspace Apartments - Chorus](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Roomspace-Apartments-Chorus.h111307048.Hotel-Information) > > [2 King Bed Modern Refurb Flat - 10 mins 2 London Bridge - Sleeps 6 Guests](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-2-Bed-Modern-Refurb-Flat-10-Mins-2-London-Bridge-Unique-Design.h102661532.Hotel-Information) > > [Dharma Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Dharma-Lodge.h31956603.Hotel-Information) > > [London Walthamstow Home](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-London-Walthamstow-Home.h38738851.Hotel-Information) > > [The Corner London City](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Qbic-Hotel-London-City.h6706032.Hotel-Information) > > [Roomspace Apartments -Cascades Court](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Roomspace-Apartments-Cascades-Court.h32856003.Hotel-Information) > > [The Crown London Hotel, Cricklewood (Northwest London), WorldHotels Distinctive](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Clayton-Crown-Hotel-London.h969760.Hotel-Information) > > [Be London - The St Pancras Residences](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-St-Pancras-Residences.h105704583.Hotel-Information) > > [Wilde Aparthotels, London, Aldgate Tower Bridge](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Wilde-Aparthotel-Staycity-London-Aldgate.h70759749.Hotel-Information) > > [2 Bedroom Portobello Notting Hill Apartment](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-2-Bedroom-PortobelloNotting-Hill-Apartment.h26811885.Hotel-Information) > > [Safestay London Kensington Holland Park](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Safestay-Holland-Park.h12706774.Hotel-Information) > > [The Gantry London, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Curio-Collection-By-Hilton-London.h48879811.Hotel-Information) > > [NX London Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-New-Cross-Inn-Hostel.h11974692.Hotel-Information) > > [The Wesley Camden Town](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Wesley-Camden-Town.h87557017.Hotel-Information) > > [Flexistay Norbury Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Flexistay-Norbury-Aparthotel.h2486864.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel, London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel-Conference-Centre.h12391.Hotel-Information) > > [The Chelsea Harbour Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Chelsea-Harbour-Hotel.h16413.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel & Conference Centre London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Radisson-Hotel-Conference-Centre-London.h48444523.Hotel-Information) > > [Crystal Palace B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Crystal-Palace-BB.h22511870.Hotel-Information) > > [Bright Chic Garden Apartment](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Bright-Chic-Garden-Apartment.h42572763.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points Flex by Sheraton London Shoreditch East](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-East-London-Hotel.h27372440.Hotel-Information)
