Detailed Reviews



The bed was alive with bugs. The sheets were stained with blood from bug bites. Please stay somewhere else.
I try and take negative reviews with a pinch of salt. I wish I had listened to the ones for this place. The room looks lovely. The bathroom is fine. Breakfast wasn’t bad.

I stayed at this hotel as quick stopover before a train journey north the next morning. It’s super convenient for Euston station.
Room was very well equipped- kettle, fridge and microwave. Very good value.

Had one night is this reasonably priced hotel, with good reviews so I thought. After a couple of hours sleep I woke up itching to find my legs covered in bites approximately 50. Got out of bed although the bedding looked clean the mattress was disgusting and crawling with bed bugs.

This is a well located, small hotel with fourteen bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. Three short blocks from the Goodge Street underground (Northern line), three longer blocks from Euston Square (Circle, Hammersmith & City, and Metropolitan lines) and also close to several bus routes. About 500 metres from the British Museum and just over twice that to the theatre district, so walking to these areas is easily manageable. The downside to the location is that you are on a fairly busy street, although I found the noise levels quite acceptable.
I was allocated a single room at the rear with direct access to the courtyard garden. The room was small, which is to be expected at this price level in London. It was well kept and clean with a new carpet, firm single bed, very small wardrobe, small writing table with kettle and telephone, and a television. Since the room is on the ground floor directly off the entrance hall and next to the staircase used to go down to the breakfast room, the door has had additional padding added to help cut down on noise. I rather enjoyed the smell of breakfast coming up but my fellow traveller in the room directly above did not. The en-suite bathroom (shower, toilet, and wash basin) was one of the smallest I have ever used. Water pressure and temperature range for the shower were more than satisfactory. Once again all was well maintained and clean.
The breakfast room is busy for the last half hour it is open and the food is good. I didn't try the coffee but my fellow traveller told me that it was "typically British, not Continental." The tea was fine!
This brings me to the hotel's service, which can make or break a guest's experience. I found it to be excellent. Everyone makes mistakes and it is how they are handled that makes the difference. I arrived late on the first evening to find that my booking for the first night had been lost in the system. The manager was telephoned, I got an immediate apology, and alternative accommodation for the first night was arranged within fifteen minutes. "Taking ownership of a problem" is something that is often talked about but is encountered far less often in reality. The manager and the other two staff I encountered all knew what had happened, each apologised for it over the course of my stay, and everyone made sure that the rest of it went off without a hitch. The discount I was offered on the first night when I checked out was the cherry on the top to emphasize just how seriously the problem was taken.
I would stay at the Regency House Hotel again without hesitation and, indeed, my fellow traveller has just done so.

This is a different type of review, solely about customer service and courtesy which will become apparent later!!
Made a booking for this hotel at the end of march/beginning april for a 1 night stay for myself and my son(15) as we were going to the FA cup final. Arrived at the hotel early as we wanted to leave our bag and get something to eat before our 1PM CHECK IN!.
On arrival were told that as the hotel had overbooked we have been allocated a room in another hotel!!! 5 mins walk around the corner. we were offered a taxi to take us but as it was only 5!!! mins away we decided to walk, arrived at the hotel 20!!! mins later only to be told we could leave our bag but would not be able to check in until 2pm!!. giving us very little time to check in and depart for wembley!! On arriving back at the hotel at 2pm to check in
We were then led from the hotel to another building some 6 or 7 doors away to a top floor TINY studio apartment with a double bed and hardly enough room to turn around, when we informed the man who took us to our room that we booked a twin room we were informed they didnt do twin rooms so it was a double or nothing!! After speaking to my son (who wasnt too keen on sharing a bed with his dad) and knowing how difficult it might be to find another hotel as most had been booked up we decided to bite the bullet and stay.
We arrived back at the hotel at 9PM and went to reception to enquire about where to go for breakfast the following morning only to be told we would have to go back to the original hotel as they didnt do breakfast!
Then the door on our room wouldnt lock and not wanting to have to go to reception 7 doors away in the rain we decided to just wedge something against the door for security.
The bed was the most uncomfortable i have ever stayed in and the noise from outside was deafening with traffic and sirens, We never we back to the Regency house for breakfast as we could'nt be bothered walking back there.
To conclude; Here is a message to the Regency house hotel,, IF I TRY TO BOOK A ROOM WITH YOU AND YOUR FULL OR IF YOU OVERBOOK TELL ME, OR CONTACT ME AT MY EMAIL ADDRESS WHICH YOU HAD, OR VIA MY MOBILE NUMBER WHICH YOU HAD, DON'T DECIDE TO BOOK ME A ROOM IN A DIFFERENT HOTEL, I'VE TRAVELLED THE WORLD AND AM MORE THAN CAPABLE OF BOOKING MY OWN ROOM,
If you book at this hotel, give them a ring before arrival to check you are actually staying there as they might decide to put you somewere else!!
ALL IN ALL SHOCKING CUSTOMER SERVICE ,

Regency House is definitely an above average hotel. The location is excellent- 5 minutes walk to the station and near to many shops and restaurants. It is within walking distance of the British museum and Oxford St.
We were very content with our room as it was clean and spacious (the staff kindly gave us a triple room even though there were only two of us). Although the bathroom was small, that is to be expected in London. Our room faced onto the backyard and it was not noisy. If you are a light sleeper it would be best to request a room that is not facing Gower St as it is a main road.
The breakfasts each morning were fantastic (bacon, eggs, baked beans, toast, cheese, sausages, coffee and tea) and the staff were very friendly and helpful. This is an excellent bargain in London and it was evident that this hotel is lovingly maintained by its staff.

When my husband and I arrived at the Regency House, I was pleased because the website actually does not accurately represent how pleasant the property is. The proprietor and staff were initially unfriendly, but with a little conversation and politeness from us became very warm and helpful. We were pleased with our room, which, while small of course, was more than adequate, with an enormous window overlooking the garden, a lovely original (non-working) fireplace, and very high ceilings.
The impeccably clean bathroom had all the necessary amenities and good water pressure, but make no mistake, it is absolutely tiny in size. This was not a problem for us but to be honest, someone who is severely overweight might have a great deal of difficulty manoevring around the bathroom. The bed itself was not very comfortable, but other furniture provided (desk, chairs) was much nicer. The fittings and furniture are slightly outdated but are still tasteful.
Breakfast was a very pleasant surprise, a full english breakfast cooked fresh, abundant toast and coffee or tea, and high quality orange juice. We were not expecting such a good breakfast from a hotel of this price range. Also a pleasant surprise was that the surly-looking staff were in fact very helpful and accommodating at all times.
The location, obviously, is excellent, the hotel being situated a short walk from several tube stations, very near the British Museum and the Goodge St shops and restaurants. Easy walk to many popular destinations and short tube ride to anywhere in central London. Tottenham Court Rd is noisy both day and night but for anyone who is used to city living this will not be bothersome.
My only true complaint about this hotel is that they allow smoking in the rooms, and there was a constant smell of smoke wafting about. This was not hugely problematic but I did find it unpleasant. Anyone who is allergic or severely averse to cigarette smoke MUST NOT stay here. However, on the whole, I recommend this hotel to anyone who requires a decent room in a good location in London and who does not require luxurious accomodations.

Very run down the hotel needs some money spent on it..... The absolute worst part for me was the smell in the drain when using the basin! It was putrid! The staff hardly speak English! Breakfast was good enough. Definitely won't be going back EVER!

Our triple room is located on the second floor and the other room that can be twin is located on the third floor.
Kind Regards

Good Morning
The price of a taxi is between £45-£65, it depends on how many luggage and type of car. Please be advised that we do not offer pick up service from airports, only from the hotel to the airports; You have to call/book a cab upon arrival at Heathrow.
About your bags, we only offer to keep the luggage on c/in and c/out days and when the guest is staying in the hotel. We cannot keep luggage if the guest is away because we do not have a storage room.
Regards
Reception Team
Good morning,
Apology for the late reply. The bed configuration in the Executive room is 1 Double bed and 2 single beds and they are all in the same room.
May I please offer you to visit our website
Where you can select your preferred:
- Room type, rate, offer and length of stay.
- Best available rate - flexible rate allowing you to amend the reservation up to 72 hours before the date of arrival.
- The non-refundable rate which is a lot cheaper but requiring prepayment and the total price of the reservation may be charged anytime after booking.
The reason why I offer you to book via our website is that you can select the cheapest non-refundable rate and securely provide payment details online, whereas over the e-mail and phone we are not allowed to take payment card details.
Please kindly note rates and room types are subject to availability.
Should you need further assistance please feel free to contact me.
Kindest Regards,
Miro
