This is usually my go to hotel when in London, great location, good room size if I book the city room, great late night bar with good bar staff and cocktails. My issue is that the hotel rooms are now really dated, the savings grace was the late night bar tenders making great cocktails. They have now gone and the bar is not that desirable, good for regular drinks at best. For the past 6 years I've been staying here the elevators/lifts have always been temporarily been on a reduced service. I used to really like this hotel for it's price and location, but I now think it's time for me to look at other options.

Perfect location for theatre and shopping with the station just a block away. There is quite a bit of street noise that can be heard from the room which is to be expected in this location. The room is a good size and perfect for someone who just needs a place to sleep and shower.

Budget hotel

The first impressions of the hotel were good with a smart, spacious reception area. We had a "Signature" double room which was comfortable for the two nights we were staying but I wouldn't have liked to stay much longer. It has a small window but with the window open there was a noise like working extraction units, too loud to sleep through so the window had to be closed. There is air conditioning in the room, but again, very loud. House keeping was good but they kept the laundry cages next to our room, 854, and when they moved them or put items in or out the cages banged noisily on the wall, if you look at the wall when the cages aren't there you can see where the paint has been scraped off by the cages. The biggest problem with the hotel comes from it's very design, 4 small lifts, 1 of which was out of order, covering 12 floors (14 if you count the lobby and mezzanine) at busy times you have to wait a very long time for a lift with space for you to get in. There are 3 restaurants, the main bar, Hudsons, is very dark, the 24 hour restaurant obviously has security issues as the toilets are locked with codelocks and there are signs of damage. I think the only way to describe St. Giles is a budget hotel.

Stay over

We stayed at this hotel to go to a concert and stay over. The location was great and the hotel as a whole was good. The rooms were quite small and the shower head had a mind of its own!. Shower was small, as was the en suite. Price was fairly reasonable for the location.

Not best 3rd visit here

Room was not air conditioned so had to have window open which you do not want to do in central London. Lots of outside noise. Mattress had no protector on which should be a standard. Rooms in desperate need of updates which I believe hotel is starting to do. 3rd stay here and has definitely gone downhill wouldn’t stay again anytime soon

Average "value" hotel at best. Looking tired, although update works are under way. The shower didn't drain properly. Checkin staff clearly skipped charm school.

Disappointing Stay

I booked two rooms described as”Classic Twin Rooms “ One room was absolutely tiny, reached by a very narrow walkway and had the smallest bathroom I have ever seen. The other room was slightly bigger but both rooms had really small single beds and very dated furniture. I was really disappointed as the photos I looked at online before booking looked completely different

Perfect location with easy access to so much of London as it is close to tube and train. Disinterested staff at check-in and when asked other questions. Perhaps because I booked via Expedia? Food in restaurant was some of worst ever experienced: eat off site. Good news though because there are so many excellent places to eat around the hotel.

Looks bad outside and inside isn’t much better.

I know London is expensive, but…! paid £167 for a superior twin room and all I can say is thank god I didn’t get the basic room. It smelled of drains, the sink was cracked and I waited until I got home for a shower as it just felt grubby . And the price didn’t include breakfast.
