Tavistock Hotel

The hotel is located in a nice and quiet area with several tube stations within walking distance. The room was a bit small but still very comfortable. Great staff both in the reception, in the bar and in the breakfast restaurant. Excelent breakfast with plenty of items to choose from. Highly recommended.

Tavistock Hotel was my home in London for 8 days, and I truly loved it. The area is fantastic, I felt safe walking around, even at night. It’s very close to Euston and St Pancras stations, which made getting around super easy. Check-in was smooth, and I was pleasantly surprised with an upgrade to a room with a lovely street view, which really improved my experience. The room itself was simple but had everything I needed. It was comfortable, always clean, and quiet, just close the window and you won’t hear any street noise. Breakfast was varied, and the staff at the reception and in the dining area were always kind and polite. Everyone at the hotel was genuinely friendly and helpful, which made me feel even more at ease as a solo traveler. The location is also great for walking — Tottenham Court Road and Oxford Street are nearby, and there are plenty of parks and public transport options around. It’s a student-friendly area, so I felt comfortable and welcome as a young traveler. If you’re traveling solo, especially for the first time in London, I definitely recommend this hotel. It made my trip feel easy, safe, and enjoyable.

Although clearly quite an old and slightly dated building (it doesn’t look particularly smart from the outside), the bedroom and bathroom were both very clean and quite spacious. We were upgraded to a king size bed which really was huge and very comfortable. There was a kettle with plenty of tea & coffee plus a small table with two chairs. Brilliant shower. Very powerful. Would definitely use again if travelling by Eurostar - a 15 minute walk away. Staff were all extremely obliging and friendly.

The bed wasn't very big but it was very comfortable for us with very very, indeed, comfortable pillows,. The breakfast was very good and plentiful with many choices and very smiley faces. Even though the breakfast area was huge there were times we had to wait to be seated which it is understandable as the hotel was full of guests. The area around the hotel was pretty nice and very close to two main stations the Euston station which takes you to Gatwick airport and the Russell Square station which takes you to many main sightseeings.

We really enjoyed staying here. The hotel is in a superb location looking out on Tavistock Square, with Euston station about five minutes walk, and King’s Cross - St Pancras about fifteen minutes. Plenty Underground lines within easy reach, and a lot of cultural attractions like the British Museum and British Library too. It felt like a relatively safe place to walk back to at night. The lobby is a beautiful Art Deco space, and the rooms have similar Art Deco-ish details. Our room looked out into a courtyard and roofs below. There was an extractor fan below which ran all night, but personally I’d rather have that sort of constant “white noise” than the intermittent noise of vehicles/ sirens/ voices in the street. The room was small but had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable, and the shower was powerful and hot. There was also a bath, which was an unexpected bonus! The room was very warm, even with the heating off and window open, but a desk fan had been provided. All staff we encountered were pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was good, with hot items kept fresh and nicely presented. There was a good selection of continental items including meat, cheese, fruit and mini pastries. Hot drinks were self service from a machine. Breakfast is served until 10am, which is useful for slow-paced holidaymakers!
