All good bar the street noise
Overall most things about my stay were very good. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The check-in and check-out process was swift and friendly. I really enjoyed the burger I had for dinner at the London Pub located in the same building. The breakfast was very decent and hearty with a varied choice for all tastes. The room had been recently renovated, and the bedding was comfy. The only gripe I have was that my room faced onto a main street. Normally not a problem. I found that the window was very poor at keeping out noise. The location seemed to have police cars / ambulances passing every few minutes at worst. And this went on through the evening and night. So, sleep was poor. Staying here again, I would insist on a room that was on the inner court yard if possible. Apart from that excellent value, great location and easily accessible to other areas of London.

Worth it if you get a good deal
Great price for the location and room. We stayed in one of the top floors and the room was well kept and comfortable. Decoration is lacking (it’s very plain) but that’s not why we picked this hotel. The location is ideal for visiting London by foot. There is a 24h Tesco 2 mins away. The luggage drop off service is also very handy and well organised. If you get a good deal, I would definitely recommend booking this place. Saw some bad experiences in the reviews but everything went super smoothly for us.

First class service
Excellent service, the reception staff went above and beyond to find us an early room. Breakfast was superb and the breakfast staff were super efficient. The hotel is extremely clean. Situated in an excellent part of London. We will definitely be back. Thank you for an excellent stay.

All fine with bed, shower etc but the windows are appalling, they don’t shut properly so all the noise echoing round the courtyard gets into the room

Excellent stay - will be returning!
After seeing less than favourable reviews i was aprehensive, however I can tell you my experience was a good one! After arriving from Euston I was aware I could leave my luggage free of charrge at the hotel, I went to reception to see where i did this and i checked in - luckily my room was available and i was able to go straight to my room. The room was spotless and the bed was super comfortable. The lead in room is on the road side - the upgraded room type overlooks the quieter courtyard. I was on the 6th floor and the road noise really wasnt an issue - do take earplugs if you are a light sleeper as the double glazing isnt great. We went room only so cannot comment on the breakfast - didnt hear any complaints through. Check in and check out was easy and quick, i will be coming back the the Royal National as the location is spot on - 5 mins walk from Euston, 5 mins to the British Museum, 2 mins from Russell Square tube station, lots of places to eat on this road too. Overall a great stay!

Comfortable hotel
Great place to stay before my partner and I’s Contiki! The pizza at the adjoining restaurant was nice and the hotel room was very comfortable. I liked the small snack/drink shop in the hotel lobby as it was convenient. Good location
