Seven Dials Hotel Annexe

Good

One isolated experience

Liked: Location
Disliked: Wifi

I would stay again but...

Liked: On the whole it worked well for what we wanted. The fridge was useful. The sheets were beautifully clean.
Disliked: One bed was right by the door, it kept catching when the door was opened.The shower room was tired and superficially clean but there was a dirty cleaning sponge kept under the sink. This appeared to be what had been used to clean the shower room. Inside the bathroom cabinet there was some impressive mould growing under the tooth brush rack. This easily wiped away.There was a broken piece of soap on the floor when we arrived and it stayed there the entire time we were there.The extension lead was variable whether it worked.The TV didn’t work (not the end of the world though!).The stair carpet was grubby with small bits all over the second landing.Not sure what the fire plan would’ve been.

Superb

We felt we were in...

Liked: The staff was super super kind and very helpful, especially Ali. Check-in and check-out went smoothly. It’s about a 7-minute walk to Bethnal Green underground station, with easy connections to the rest of London. The room was very clean and came with a kettle for coffee, a TV, and a fan. Communication was super easy via WhatsApp, and if there was anything we needed, we could just call with no issues. Truly recommend this place!

Too old and small.

Liked: There is a fan in the room.
Disliked: The bathroom is too small to use. The furniture in the room is worn out.

My suggestion is to pay...

Liked: Without question the star aspect of this hotel is the location. Very close to all the theatres, attractions like Covent Garden, Leicester Square etc.Also a plethora of restaurants in the area to suit all tastes!
Disliked: The room was very small, especially the bathroom which had somehow managed to squeeze in a toilet, shower and basin in a space that was only comfortable for one of these. Also double bed was small, barely big enough for two adults.Facilities were very basic, only a small hand soap provided so fortunate that we packed shower cream, hair products etc.We planned to stay at the main hotel building in Monmouth St but just missed the last rooms and ended up in the Annexe hotel in Engel St, perhaps this review would have been better if we had managed to stay in the former hotel?

Pleasant

Liked: Easy to get to from the train station. Available last minute. Had a fan. Beds were good. Reception was friendly and helpful. It did have a mini fridge, which was nice. What you see is what you get.
Disliked: The location did not have air conditioning, which made a stressful night pretty miserable. The bathroom is very small. We booked this last minute due to a train cancellation, so the price was very high compared to the value of the room. I imagine the price would have been more decent if booked in advance.

Passable
