It was a safe area to stay in. The complimentary “made to order”coffee and fruit basket were a nice bonus. We stayed in a jr suite and one of the earlier comments made mention of strong smell in the hallway which is true if someone is cooking but it doesn't smell once you get into the room

Awful experience the hotel was a building site with dust, paint, workers and tools everywhere. No lifts working, broken air conditioning in room and no breakfast on offer just a poor pack lunch option. Left bags with reception on check out day and come back to find them covered on dust and no toilet to use in reception

Great spot. Close to the tube, St. Pancras, Covent garden etc. We went to a concert in Hyde Park and walked back without any stress. Food and groceries close by. Coffee machines in the foyer and breakfast area, with cold water on tap. Room was a good size and had everything we needed. Ironing board, hairdryer and the kitchen was set up really well, even though we didn't put it to the test. Fridge was very welcome as the weather was fantastic. Only criticism was that the desk staff could have been more friendly and welcoming. Wouldn't stop me going back though.

This was not the first time we have stayed here and I would return again in the future. The staff were very friendly and helpful when a couple of minor issues arose on the first day. The bed was very comfy and there wasn't any external noise, making it easy to get a great night's sleep. The kitchen had just about everything we needed. It was also nice to be able to have a hot drink and an apple in the lounge. The gym had a very good range of equipment too. The property is starting to show the signs of being well used and it was therefore good to see some refurbishment underway.

Fantastic location, really central to everything. Large room. Friendly staff. Clean room and comfortable bed. The only negative was in our view the breakfast, which was admittedly a good spread of continental food but very limited hot items (eggs, beans and hash browns). For £15 per person I would have expected more items on the hot breakfast. We stayed 2 nights and didn't bother with breakfast for the second morning as it was so disappointing.

There is a small gym within the hotel at level one. Hotel breakfast is charged at GBP15 per pax.

The hotel is conveniently located just a short walk from the subway station. It’s also close to pubs and theaters, making it a great spot to enjoy the nightlife. Since it’s a serviced apartment, there’s no daily housekeeping, but that also means no one enters the room, so you can relax without worrying about privacy. The breakfast selection is a bit limited and may feel repetitive if you’re staying for several days, but there are plenty of fast food places and supermarkets nearby, so you have lots of alternatives.

We were there for 10 days and we had our room cleaned once. They forgot to come once. Curtains were dirty and the chairs in the room had some weird spots/ colors on it. The soundproofing of the room was not good. We heard all the neighbors and the construction. The lobby was great, the free coffee was great too. Really good location. You can walk pretty much everywhere from the hotel.

Place looks to have been recently done up and rooms are spotless. Room was a bit too warm with a warm duvet and couldn't get room below 19 degrees. Check-in was very slow as they wanted ID and then for cuatomers to sign up to something to check in to the room half an hour early. This was frustrating and a waste of time other than for data harvesting

We love the citadines at Holborn and have stayed there many times. They have recently finished renovating and it looks lovely. Staff were great and the room was great. Only issue was that they have a centrally controlled heating system (despite having a controller on the wall in the room that does nothing that we could work out. The room was like a furnace, so we had to leave the windows open, which in December was then very cold. I would suggest the hotel changes back to individual room controls.

First off the location is amazing, right next to the Holborn metro station, one street away from the John Soane’s museum and a short walk from the British museum. The place is clean and the room were perfect for a family of 4 (kids are 13 & 15). Now the not so good: First few days we were freezing in the room and the heating controls in the room were useless so they ended up sending us a plugged heather in the room. A day later we ran out of hot water. They told us to let the water flow for 30 min as if that would help (which it didn’t of course) then after 24 hours with no hot water i got them to switch us to another room.

During our recent trip to London with my wife and two adult children, we rented two rooms for 3 days (1/3/24 to 1/6/24). The on-duty front desk people were incredibly helpful and professional. They made our check in and check out process very smooth. I had to call for help with my heating system once and the on duty person responded quickly. In fifteen minutes a tech was at my door and quickly fixed the issues. I was very impressed! I would certainly stay there in future and recommend to my family and friends. The staff went above and beyond their duty to make our stay a great experience. S A Boston, USA.

We had an extremely unpleasant experience at this hotel. We got stuck in their cramped elevator with a 4-month-old baby for 30 minutes.

The location was central to everything. It was 15 minutes (either by the underground or walking) to almost everything. An underground stop was within 2 blocks. And it was one of the few places we found in that area that allowed us to have a separate room for my daughter (using a sofa bed). Not the most comfortable sofa bed, but it did the trick. And it's nice to have a kitchenette with a fridge and dining ware.
