“Great location, clean, simple. Just what's needed for a weekend break.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2012

person found this review helpful

We booked a nights stay at the regency house hotel as we were seeing a show at the pheonix theatre. Found the hotel easily from the tube station. (only about 5-10 mins walk from goodge street station). Check in was quick, simple and then found our room. It was exactly as we expected, and exactly all we wanted. Clean floor, sheets, and bathroom.

Upon waking the next day, the only mistake made was that we thought breakfast would be between 7-10. Please note this is not the case. It's actually 7.30-9. Despite coming down at 9.40 one of the kind staff cooked us both a full English, with plenty of toast, tea and orange juice. My partner and I thought this was especially good as some places we have been to, refuse to serve you if your late.

I am surprised by some of the negative reviews on here for this hotel. Yes it's not the ritz but considering the charge for the room per night with breakfast included, and the location think this hotel is very much worthing visiting and worth the money.

If ever attending a show or in this area again would defiantly stay here and recommend to others.

“Waste of money.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012

Stayed here in the last week and it was disappointing.
Nice entrance and easy check-in.
Once i got too my room it was the pits.
Very small and the floor creaked every step i made which drove me mad.
Bathroom was very small and the bed was awful.
Mattress slopped down on one side so i felt i was going to fall out of bed.
So not alot of sleep.
Breakfast was ok but nothing special.
I will not stay here again thats for sure.

Room Tip: If travelling solo avoid room 3.

“Not value for money”

The place smells a wee bit, the rooms are extremly small and the place really needs to be redecorated. If we had the time we would have left straight away. i wouldnt be staying here again.

“check bill carefully”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 November 2011

This B&B was average with a clean room, small bath, hardy breakfast. When I went to check out my bill was automatically converted to USD with a fee and owner determined rate of conversion. I was given an estimate to check but the conversion was in small print. I would have liked a chance to not convert.

Room Tip: rooms to the back of the building were much quieter than on the street. Narrow stairs and no lift

“Friendly and faded”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2011

One of many Georgian houses on Gower Street that are now small hotels, usually with very small rooms. Staff at Regency House were friendly and helpful, but hotel lacked most amenities--no lounge, no computer for guest use, no air conditioning (and Gower Street is very noisy. when windows are open.) On the plus side, location is great and price is right.
