The room was very small, but had everything you needed. The front desk staff was excellent, very friendly and genuine. They were great at communicating and helpful when you needed them. The hotel offers a luggage room, where you can drop of your baggage if you arrive before your check-in. It's in a very walkable area with restaurants nearby. Very happy with your stay.

Would stay again BUT....

The Hotel, on the whole, was pretty decent. It is presentable, clean and safe were helpful. Sadly our room had a stale cigarette smell about it that wasn't great. The breakfast offer was really good, the ambience of the bar area fab, and the laughter of the Fawlty Towers Dining Experience was good to hear from reception. Would stay again, but if on a future stay room smelt of smoke again we'd probably look elsewhere beyond that.

Wonderful anniversary stay

What a welcome we had for our two night stay here.They remembered I’d mentioned it was our 53rd wedding anniversary so when we entered the room,,wow,the bed was covered in red paper rose petals and lovely towel shapes. The food menu is limited but the food quality was excellent.My wife has a severe fish/seafood allergy, on knowing this the staff were so particular in making sure there was never any cross contamination she felt 100% safe. The bed was extremely comfortable and we had a lovely view overlooking Russell Square. A fantastic stay so a special thank you to ALL the staff, you made our stay so memorable.

We had mostly a great stay and the staff were nice and helpful. We did find it a bit noisy though. The walls are very thin and we could hear the guests in the next door rooms and in the hall way.

Very noisy road for traffic morning and evening…Construction has just started and due to go on for 18 months…So an early start every morning…Can be noisy during the night with Revellers…Biggest Minus is NO AIR CONDITIONING in the hotel…

My stay at the President Hotel was better than I expected. I came to London on a budget and I didn’t want to overspend on a room. I opted for a single room. The room is small but definitely adequate to my needs. It was modern, well equipped, and very clean. The dining options in the hotel and the surrounding area are outstanding. There is a square (park) nearby for morning walks and many of the sites I came to see are quite close. For my next London trip, I’ll be staying here.

Very nice all round

Nice hotel overall and nicely refurbished. Had a small room which was ok for us and had a comfy bed. Glad there was a fan as warm room. Handy for the tube and walkable to central london. Would stay here again. Be warned, there is work going on at the back but that starts at 8am

Room was very clean and quite compact. But the room was very hot even though we had the windows open all through the night and this was a mid March day. We didnt have the radiator on so could not understand why it was so warm. There was a fan in the room.but no air con. Breakfast selection was good and satisfying. Overall a good stay.
