This private hotel was a real find, just a short walk from Russell square. The room on the first floor was small yet very clean. As with all styles of this hotel in London the bathroom was compact yet very clean with a great shower. Wifi was great and breakfast even better. Will be back

My daughter and I just spent three nights at this hotel. It is situated on a quiet road just around the corner from the British Museum and a block from Russell Square and pretty much equidistant from the Russell Square, Euston, and Goodge Street Tube stops. The location can't be beat. The first night we were in a family room... More

I have stayed on this hotel three times. The rooms and bathrooms are a good size. The staff has always been friendly and very helpful. Their breakfasts get a traveler off to a good start. I heartily recommend this hotel.

Being built in 1800 this B & B displays some of the quirky features of an old building,- squeaky floorboards, minuscule bathroom etc BUT the shower is hot and responsive! Wi Fi also worked a treat. We found our room on the ground floor immaculate and the linen of a high standard. Breakfast can't be faulted. Arriving from overseas ,... More

We've stayed at the Thanet each time we visit London - my husband considers it his "London home away from home," as it is so convenient and hospitable, and offers a delightful, cooked-to-order breakfast. It is a small, family-run hotel, run by the family of the current proprietors, Richard and Lynwen Orchard, for several generations. Recently updated (spring 2012?), the... More

The Thanet is more of a B&B than a hotel. The outside of the hotel is beautiful, with colorful flowers and vines in window boxes. It is located in my favorite area to stay - Bloomsberry. It is on the best tube (subway) line - the Piccadilly, from which you can get a direct train from Heathrow airport. The ride... More

Stayed for one night on business. The location is excellent and the price for a central budget hotel is spot on. Staff were friendly, beds comfortable and a good breakfast. If you are planning to visit the British museum then you are more of less next door!!!

This was my second stay at the Thanet Hotel, which I've tried to book numerous times in the roughly 18-20 months since my last stay. It still has the same good location, good English breakfast and good value. However, there are a number of flaws that I didn't experience the first time. The biggest of these are the severely lacking... More

Stayed here when in London for one night. I had a single room. The place is nice, clean, and the bed very comfortable. My room had a TV, good wifi, tea/coffee facilities, good bed, shower, toilet, sink etc. Fairly basic but for the price and the location I would definitely stay here again. I unfortunately had to leave before the... More
