Nice stay. Lovely art deco hotel. Room was simply furnished, but extremely clean. Bathroom and loo could do with updating, but not a big problem.
Staff are extremely pleasant. Would certainly stay again and highly recommend.
Room was clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. A bit noisy with the fireball and ambulance close by but convenient for the train station.
Nice older hotel with an art deco vibe. Rooms on the smaller side, to be expected given this is a 'vintage' building , but perfectly comfortable and clean. Two restaurants and a bar, one serving Indian style food as well as typical British . At the price, this hotel ticks all the boxes, and the location is great, walkable to Soho, Bloomsbury , British Museum, theatres etc.
Very comfortable beds and the breakfast was amazing! The hotel has a great location (although park side was a bit loud - we arrived on a Sunday and it was quite lively with people and emergency vehicles). Would highly recommend!
So many positive things to say about our stay at the Tavistock Hotel. The room was the perfect size, and upon arrival, not only were we greeted promptly, but able to check-in early, which was a massive plus after coming from an overnight flight. Staff was great, and the area around it is easy to navigate and felt safe the entire time. Having a restaurant attached and plenty of options near by made it a great plus as well. Within a 5-10 min walk to underground stations and about a 20 min walk from Soho.
We found the Tavistock Hotel lovely. It was very clean, rooms were perfect. It was the perfect location. The buffet breakfast was very good. Would definitely stay there again
