“great place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

I stayed in Goodenough club hotel for 4 nights and it was great.The location is perfect.Very close to University of London,British museum,Covern Garden,Soho,Kings Cross.All within walking distance.The undergrond tube Russel Square and King's Cross 10 minutes walk from the hotel.The staff is very friendly and helpfull.The room was great,big,clean with comfortable bed.Breakfast was in different building across the street,which was not very convinient in January.The breakfast was decent,I've seen better,but since it was included it was fine.There is great italian restaurant Chao Bella 5 minutes walk from the hote for dinner . If you decide to stay in Goodenough Club,make sure you request room on 1st floor,since there is no elevator in the hotel.But it is very good place for the value,and great location.

“A comfortable hotel in a good location, RECOMMENDED”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 December 2011

A clean hotel in a central location in a quiet square, so you can get a good nights sleep. We had a spacious triple room with a view of the square and a huge comfortable bed with big fluffy pillows. The shower room was clean with a powerful shower and complementary toiletries. There was plenty of hanging space in the wardrobe and a hairdryer. The room also included tea/coffee making facilities,TV and Wifi connection. The Full English Breakfast taken in the college over the road was fantastic with a super selection. The staff were welcoming and accommodating. A brisk 20 min walk will get you to Leicester Square and less than 5 min to the nearest tube station. The hotel is less than a mile from St Pancras train station. The only negative point is that there isn't a lift, we were on the third floor which wasn't a problem for us so you might want to request a ground floor room. We would recommend this hotel to friends and stay here again.

“Perfect for what it is”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 November 2011

person found this review helpful

This is basically a nice college dorm -- well, nicer than the ones we stayed in during our college years! When we travel, we don't plan on staying in the hotel very much, so all we look for is a good location, cleanliness, comfort, and certain amenities like laundry and internet. Goodenough Club ticked all those boxes and then some: the staff were helpful and pleasant (they appeared to be college students), the room we had was quite large, the bed was comfortable, there was ample closet space, the location was very quiet, there were a few tube stations within a 10-15 minute walk, and the complimentary breakfast down the street was quite good. (The husband loves an English breakfast, and as we were just returning from the continent, he was thrilled to have eggs and bacon on the menu.) Goodenough Club is reasonably priced for its excellent location in London, and we would definitely consider coming back.

“Back Again and Delighted!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 November 2011

This is my second visit to the Goodenough and once again I was delighted with my room and the service given by the staff. I was given the room on a ground floor I had requested at the time of booking which delighted me as I was only staying 2 nights. All the staff were helpful, friendly and welcoming---from the men on reception, the lady who was on at night and the charming man who serviced the breakfast in the Club room in the basement. This is a great location and a very pleasing base in central London. And excellent value for money in such an expensive city for accommodation.

Room Tip: Rooms at the back are very quiet but rooms at the front look over the Gardens.
