Hôtel à fuir
Chambre au -1 comme si nous étions à la cave , pas de porte un rideau ! L'odeur insupportable odeur d'égout, chambre minuscule, draps du lit sales, bref je déconseille !

Fine hotel, great location
The reviews on google in particular made me pretty scared for my stay here but I found it fine. Everything is old, my room was tiny, most likely a converted bathroom or a study at best but it was what I was expecting based on the listing. I cant speak for all rooms but I found no evidence of bedbugs in room 2 and gathering from my contact with the hotel prior to my stay they have had pest control to remove them from the rooms. The location is really great, as a solo female traveller I never felt unsafe walking along nearby streets at night and its a small walk from multiple underground stations and the British Museum. You will not find luxury at this hotel but it’s not as if they are advertising it as so. I think some reviews are a bit exaggerated or the big problems raised in them (i.e bedbugs) have been rectified. Its a fine hotel for a couple of nights in a good location on a budget, I did enjoy my trip here.

Disappointed stay
This is our second stay at The Garth and certainly not the best. We arrived at 1340 and were told in no uncertain terms check in is at 1400 come back then. Most places we stay if we are early would check if the room was ready and available. The room we had was down the stairs behind a curtain with a step which is difficult to see and I stumbled down it the first time. The bedroom must have once been the box room and it had been converted. Wallpapering was poor and the sink cracked and no plug. The bed was comfortable and we had a good night sleep. The radiator wasn’t working so an electrical heater was in the room with a trip hazard cable to an extension lead with everything plugged in - potential fire hazard. The shower/toilet was behind the curtain, the shower was hot with plentiful hot water. The room itself is showing signs of wear and needs a good over haul. Outside the shower/toilet there was a strong sewage smell which wasn’t there on check in. We were disappointed as our previous stay in July was much better
Bed with side lamp that couldn’t be plugged in as no socket
No plug and taps stiff to turn on and off

Overall was ok
A central London budget hotel, you get what you pay for, so not 3 or 4 star. No bed bugs as far as I'm aware and ok for a one night sleep over. Only grumble was a very weak shower Overall was ok.

BED BUGS! DON’T STAY HERE!
My three friends and I only stayed at the Garth Hotel for a few hours. As we were going to bed on the first night, bed bugs started crawling all over us and our beds. The hotel offered us another room for ONE night for only TWO of us! They couldn’t help us find another hotel even though it was almost midnight and they wouldn’t give us a refund even though the room was uninhabitable. Need I say more???!

I liked the location. However, there was no heat in the room. There was no hair dryer. We only got one bath towel replaced for two of us. The floors were uneven making falls possible. The bathroom had no towel bars. It really was sub par.

Bed bugs
The hotel has a bed bug infestation. I made two bookings for two consecutive weeks, but after I stayed and got completely covered in bug bites, I asked for a refund for the second booking which was yet to start in a week's time. The reply was that bed bugs are a London problem and that they won't refund it. They don't even want to refund me for the future stay although they admitted they have bed bugs. I am now out of pocket now as I have to pay again for another hotel next week. I should have read the reviews warning about bed bugs but didn't. I hope this review saves the skin and homes of other potential guests who are reading it.
