What guests think
Across many reviews, Staunton Hotel - B&B earns praise for its central yet quiet Bloomsbury location and satisfying breakfast, with numerous guests finding the rooms comfortable and the property generally clean and well maintained.
The historic Georgian building adds character but has no lift and narrow, winding stairs, which several guests found challenging with luggage. Room size varies from compact to spacious, and a few reviews note outdated furnishings or temperature control issues such as overly warm rooms, weak air conditioning, or cold bathrooms. While service is widely described as friendly and helpful, a small number of guests reported rudeness or inattentiveness. Expect a characterful base with strong basics, but be prepared for stairs and some variation in room comfort.

Lovely boutique type hotel. Great , convenient and safe neighborhood. Close to many dining options. Victorious is a must for Americans who love breakfast great coffee! Beds were very comfortable, and cleaning staff was friendly and helpful. All in all a very nice experience. Only complaints are the somewhat unfriendly, front desk, staff, and the electrical outlets in the rooms which would not charge our electronics properly despite having brand new travel converters. Outlets were loose and converters kept falling out and losing contact. Very challenging when you depend on a fully charged phone for navigation and communications. They were kind enough to give us a ground floor room since they don’t have elevators. This was appreciated!

Nice home like atmosphere. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Secure building. Only strange thing, other than limited room for moving about the room, was that the charging plugs were behind the bed and needed to move furniture to discover them. Would definitely book again!

Nice, quaint little place with plenty of restaurants close by. Just a block away from the British Museum. Staff is friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was good. The downside, of course, is the lack of a lift. Carrying bags up a narrow, winding staircase is a pain in the butt.

I read other reviews before booking and was surprised at the condition of the hotel once arriving. Tight spiral staircase on the top floor not fun to carry heavy luggage, but I understand it's an old building. The carpet throughout had what appeared to be pet stains in several places. Hard spring mattress beds. Veneer peeling off inexpensive furniture. Noisy air units. Tired decor. I don't normally leave poor reviews, but we were so disappointed, we booked elsewhere rather than staying at the Staunton. I will say the front desk staff was friendly.

We are a family of 3 (with a 9-year-old), stayed in this hotel for 4 days during our London trip in early July. Our room was 303, it's on the top floor and we understand it was an older building with stairs, but moving our luggage on those stairs was exhausting. The room was big, with 3 individual twin beds, it was comfortable and clean but a little bit outdated. The staffs are very friendly and helpful during our stay. The breakfast was included and the full breakfast was delicious. The location of this hotel is very convenient and walkable, only a few mins away from the British Museum and close to the Oxford Street. There are a lot of dining options and we feel safe in the area around the hotel. Overall experience was GREAT! I would recommend this hotel to my family and friends.

Charming Georgian neighborhood, secure hotel with 24hr staff. Room was a funky shape because it wasn’t always a hotel. But nicely painted and decent beds and carpets. The bathroom was recently remodeled and the shower was fantastic. The AC wasn’t that powerful but we were there in an unusual heat spell. Friendly kind staff. The breakfast is worth mentioning, the room is cheerful and bright. Big spread as well as table service offering additional cooked food. Best complimentary breakfast I’ve ever had.

Great location, quiet hotel, local business. Important to mention that it does not have elevators, which can be a hassle, at least they should offer to help you move the bags since the staircase and steps are narrow. Bathroom very clean, only thing is that the pillows had a moldy smell. Also the ladies in the front desk might improve a bit in their attentiveness. Breakfast good, saves you a buck.

I loved the idea of staying in a more local hotel and not a chain and I'm so glad I did. This old building has been renovated into a darling hotel and I absolutely loved it. Even the terrifying circular staircase which is hard to carry suitcases up and down, I would do again for the chance to stay at the Staunton. The service was excellent and the breakfast was amazing! I loved everything about it. I took off one star for condition because it's an old building and some of the furniture in the rooms is showing some wear and tear, but mostly it added to the charm. Every member of the staff was wonderful as well! If you have the chance, stay there!

We have booked a room with 3 single beds in one room. The room was clean, however a bit small but it worked fine for us. The bathroom was big. I could see that the other room with 3 single beds, was slightly bigger. Even though it was in November and 12 degrees outside, the room was a bit too warm, even though the heating didnt seem to be active. The service was very friendly and responsive. The breakfast was good and you could order the hot meals and bread separately, which is good way of reducing food waste. The hotel has 300 meters to nearest shops, cafees and bakeries. The area in it self is very nice and quiet with beautiful architecture and not too busy.

Reception staff was helpful and friendly, both prior to and during our stay. Bed was comfy with high quality sheets. Bath was small but adequate. Breakfast was wonderful! Fresh fruit, juices cereals plus full cooked breakfast if desired. Easy walk to Goode street tube and British Museum. 200+ year old Georgian home with classic elements that have been lovingly restored by the family owners. If you are looking for a sleek, modern hotel with big rooms this one is not for you!

Reception staff was helpful and friendly, both prior to and during our stay. Bed was comfy with high quality sheets. Bath was small but adequate. Breakfast was wonderful! Fresh fruit, juices cereals plus full cooked breakfast if desired. Easy walk to Goode street tube and British Museum. 200+ year old Georgian home with classic elements that have been lovingly restored by the family owners. If you are looking for a sleek, modern hotel with big rooms this one is not for you!

Boutique property in a great location walking distance to Covent Garden, Central London and Soho. Friendly and helpful staff. Small rooms but well appointed and value for money. Would stay again.

Nice, quaint little place with plenty of restaurants close by. Just a block away from the British Museum. Staff is friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was good. The downside, of course, is the lack of a lift. Carrying bags up a narrow, winding staircase is a pain in the butt.

I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. For the amount we paid I was not expecting so much. I thought it would a no frills place to rest for the night. However, from start to finish it was wonderful. Very friendly welcome, efficient check in, comfortable and well equipped room. Great shower… amazing location. The breakfast was outstanding. A really great experience all round. We will return.

We have booked a room with 3 single beds in one room. The room was clean, however a bit small but it worked fine for us. The bathroom was big. I could see that the other room with 3 single beds, was slightly bigger. Even though it was in November and 12 degrees outside, the room was a bit too warm, even though the heating didnt seem to be active. The service was very friendly and responsive. The breakfast was good and you could order the hot meals and bread separately, which is good way of reducing food waste. The hotel has 300 meters to nearest shops, cafees and bakeries. The area in it self is very nice and quiet with beautiful architecture and not too busy.

stay was nice but i was unhappy being in the basement room - would have liked if they changed the breakfast options instead of the same thing every day - kind of boring - staff was nice - would probably consider staying there again and would request floor i need

Good central location. Breakfast options a little restricted compared to where we have stayed before. Polite staff. Bottled Water in the mini bar could have been free as no one really fancies drinking water from the bathroom tap.

I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone at The Staunton Hotel. All of the staff were very helpful and friendly, the room was spotless as was the whole of the hotel and breakfast was amazing. I stayed there with my sister and we would both stay there again and recommend it to others.

I loved the idea of staying in a more local hotel and not a chain and I'm so glad I did. This old building has been renovated into a darling hotel and I absolutely loved it. Even the terrifying circular staircase which is hard to carry suitcases up and down, I would do again for the chance to stay at the Staunton. The service was excellent and the breakfast was amazing! I loved everything about it. I took off one star for condition because it's an old building and some of the furniture in the rooms is showing some wear and tear, but mostly it added to the charm. Every member of the staff was wonderful as well! If you have the chance, stay there!
