A really good location that is very close to central London and served by an excellent bus service. The facilities although basic were clean and the breakfast included in the price was extremely good value. The only snag we encountered was that we arrived very early in the morning and we were given a room already occupied which was rather embarrassing plus there were no towels available so we had to share. Other than that, we would definitely recommend the LSE as exceptionally good value accommodation.

Stayed for 3 nights and, although Student Halls are never going to be comparable to the Ritz, this is reflected in the amazingly cheap price! The location was superb, the room basic, but clean and everything worked in the amenity area. The bed was not great, but was comfortable enough for a few nights. The shower room was down the corridor and rather off-putting to look at, but had good water-pressure and a constant (warm) temperature. Definitely need to pack a dressing-gown though as there was no space to dry off and get dressed in the small wet-room. Service was good with cheerful & helpful staff. There was a fair amount of noise, but it did quieten down around 1am. I'd certainly consider this option again & anyone wanting a cheap, no-frills stay in a great location should give it a go.

With frequent buses into the West End, trendy Islington 10 minutes walk away and Exmouth market on your doorstep, Rosebery Hall is in a good location. Being college accommodation rooms you would expect room to only be available outside term times, but I have also found them to be available in term times too. The rooms themselves are fine, with shared showers and toilets, but there are washbasins in the rooms. Breakfast is good, with a wide choice of hot and cold food. There is also a bar on the premises.

What do you do when you’re stuck for a few days in Central London, on a budget, and in dire need of a quiet space to work? Easy answer: look up LSE Vacations online. All their buildings fit the bill, but Rosebery Hall most definitely scores extra points for its superior location, simple, comfy surroundings, and friendly staff. Breakfast (if you choose), can be cooked or cold, and taken in one truly spacious dining room that’s actually better than most 2-3 star hotels. The only down-side is LSE does not open year round, so be sure to check their website for dates. Space can be a little tight near the desk in basic double/twin rooms, and if you’re using the (spotless) shower, let it run first, or it might open with a cold blast! Other than that, relax and let the good times roll.
