Just stayed for two nights at the George Hotel. We were given a baement room which was of a reasonable size with a double and a single bed. The ensuite shower room was small. Staff are friendly and the reception staff made you feel very welcome. Room cleanliness requires attention to detail. Lampshades for the bedside lamps are covered in dust which has been there for quite a while. On inspection in the bathroom there was hair in the sink plug hole and when I continued to remove it, it had been in the sink for some time!!!! Long hair covered in soap residue!!! Not nice. Being in the basement room you could hear the underground trains but they did not run all night!! Breakfast was adequate but not inspiring. All in all a budget hotel within walking distance of central London

For 2 whole years I travelled to London on an almost weekly basis and never stayed anywhere else but at the George. A very convenient location, affordable rooms and superlative service and friendliness from the staff. If there were more than 5 stars for service, I'd tick them all. Thank you Daniela, Meg and all the others for making my weekly stays an unforgettable experience!

I've stayed in many hotel in London both large and small but after my stay at The George on my last trip this is my hotel! I took a double for single use and it did truly exceed my expectations. Service was excellent. I had one small problem with the shower drain. I spoke to the front desk about it before heading out for the morning. When I returned it had been fixed. No question this is a great value in London. I only hope it doesn't become TOO popular. Ron Boston, Ma

We have stayed twice at the George Hotel and have been very pleased with it. The location is good, it's very quiet, the staff are very friendly and it has a nice atmosphere. The rooms are comfortable and clean, though fairly basic - this is reflected in the most reasonable price - and we found the beds comfortable. Breakfast was good. We will definitely stay there again on our next visit . Thank you for a lovely stay. John and Roz Nichols

I would like to express my gratitude for making my stay in London enjoyable. I found the staff consistently very friendly and helpful right from my first contact in making the reservation. The reviews I read prior to booking were very complimentary and I was not dissapointed in the least. My only criticism would be the shower in the third floor bathroom. It did not drain well so a shower unfortunately consisted of standing in ankle deep water. The friendliness and helpfulness of the staff compensated for this.

Being my first time in the UK, i was amazed by the way hotel were being run. My country's experience, made me thing i was going to meet mighty edifice, run as hotels.However, i was satisfied by the size of the rooms, but hoped that more work should be done in lagging the rooms, so that in-guest are not disturbed by what other guest are doing in thier respective rooms.On the service,cleanliness & dinning, i must confess you exceeded my expectation.The front desk & Dinning were wonderful.

Stayed at the George as it was close to the UCLH where my father had an appointment the following day. As you can imagine, he was very nervous but the friendliness of the staff, the comfort of the room and the fab breakfast ensured that the visit was a pleasant one. Will stay there again when we have to come to Londin for a future appointment.

I loved the George and would certainly stay there again. My tiny single room was great.I felt my stay in London was excellent because of it - especially good value and location for walking everywhere. Only thing - there could be a better vegetarian option for breakfast - mushrooms? soy sausages?

This b & b was close to Russell Square and Euston station which was what we needed. It met our expectations. Front Desk Service was excellent and rooms spotless. Although, our room was in the basement, it was adequate and we would definitely stay again.

I have to stay the night in centrall London, at least once every 2 months, and I'm now a regular guest at the George. I've tried many London B&B's over the last couple of years and this one, by far, is the best value for money and the one in which I now feel most "at home". All the staff are consistently friendly and there's a very relaxed feel about the place. The beds are comfortable, the rooms are clean and the breakfast is plentiful. On top of this the price is very competitive and generally cheaper than other B&B's that I've checked on. I have no hesitation in giving this place a hignh recommendation.

I only stayed for one night. On the plus side, the Australian woman working at reception was friendly and very helpful. Also, my room was large and clean. On the down side, I didn't have a good night sleep due to the amount noise from outside. I could hear voices and footsteps very clearly, until the wee hours of the morning. Double glazing would have greatly enhanced the quality of my stay. In addition, I was unable to enjoy a leisurely breakfast as service started at 8am and I had to check out by 8.15am. Overall, I would recommend this hotel because it is well-situated in Central London and offers good value for money--as long as you bring along ear plugs!

I stayed here one night. It is close to Earl's Court Station and only a 10 minute walk to the British Museum. Contrary to the other review; I found the staff were very friendly and helpful. I would absolutely stay here again. The breakfast was good and plentiful, the room was nice and the bed comfortable.

We'll look forward to seeing this reviewer if he comes again and thanking him for the positive review but I wanted to mention that our nearest Tube station is Russell Square, not Earls Court.

The daily breakfasts were very good and the selection very good despite it being a small b&b. If the staff were friendlier, it would have greatly improved my opinion.

I'm the owner of the George in London and have seen your review. I appreciate feedback from guests as this is the best way to make sure that we improve the facilities, etc., that guests in our price bracket need. I note your comment about unfriendly staff and wondered if you'd mind giving me a bit more detail about this. I know that, personally, a restarant meal or hotel stay can be ruined for me if the staff are disinterested or unfriendly and my managers are quite clear also about how important this aspect is. A friendly, relaxed atmospere is especially important at our level in the accommodation business where we don't have the facilities of the larger hotel groups. I would appreciate it if you would give me a little more specific detail as to what happened at the George that gave you the impression of unfriendliness there. This email to you is sent from a comment box on the bedandbreakfast.com website so I'm not sure which email address your reply goes to so would you put it for my attention please. Regards, Peter Evans

Review George Hotel, London,

Photo Album

Reception - This will be the place to go for assistance with tours, travelling, general London information, etc. If you don't get a smile and a cheery welcome here ask for a discount!Double bedroom - What can we say about a bedroom! Hopefully it will be as comfortable for you as the one at home and you'll have a TV with free satellite channels, tea/coffee facilities, clock radio, direct dial phone, etc.
The perfect location for a stay in central London - quiet and peaceful facing central gardens but within walking distance of the British Museum, Covent Garden, Soho and the West End, ideal for both theatres and shopping.Guest lounge area - Here you can relax with the morning paper, do your emails (we have a computer here with free internet access), plan your day or chat to other guests.
Breakfast Room - Start the day with a satisfying, full English breakfast. All the usual that you expect with a hot, cooked breakfast and, best of all, it's included in the price. If you're still hungry when you've finished - have another one (free)!Friendly, helpful staff - they'll absolutely do everything they can (within reason) to help you enjoy your visit to London.
