London hotels near London School of Economics and Political Science

Cons: not much..

Cons: Not being able to stay longer

Cons: gym facilities were modest as was pool, but not a terribly big deal as most hotel gyms have a limited offer.

Cons: Loved everything about CitizenM concept.

Cons: Check in process took long as something went wrong with booking through booking.com. Manual check in not very fast

Cons: The rooms are quite small for this price, but the space is optimally used. Not recommended for families with children.

Cons: The negative element of the stay included the inattentiveness of most staff members. There was a lack of polished professionalism that is instrumental to a quality hotel. It felt like an disjointed operation. As for house keeping, I was unimpressed. The bathroom was not well cleaned, and it appeared the floor towel was repeatedly unchanged. Although the room was constructed with high-end technology, it was poorly integrated. The technology was not particularly easy to use and added little value. The television would not respond to the controller. Further, the television sat above the desk, making use of the desk awkward. Also, there was no light above the desk and no desk lamp. Finally, both the pool and gym were inaccessible at night and early morning. This can be inconvenient for business travelers. Still, the pool was impressive. Overall, I was disappointed and would recommend looking into other hotels, such as Apex (where I had a more pleasant stay during a prior visit).

Cons: Slight issue with room not being ready. Was invited to the premier area to have a free drink. However we were left in a room where businessmen were having a meeting and all of the drink sat in locked cabinets so,we couldn't have anything anyway. No-one came back to check on us so we left for the bar.

Cons: The bathroom floor looked like it had splashed on it although the rest of the bathroom was spotless.

Cons: It was odd that we played bar game on the fri evening and my husband was given the sliders no problem, but when our guest (who was staying in the hotel too) went to play on the sat night he was asked to leave a £10 deposit .

Cons: The room was clean but may be the room layout was not up to my liking. I felt it was darker with less lighting and dark layouts

Cons: Due to front renovation no proper sign boards kept. Found it difficult to reach on the first day.

Cons: Nothing.

Cons: dirty hallways, staff forgetting out tea or coffee each morning at breakfast

Cons: Room was slightly dirty. Front desk staff could be more pleasant. Professionalism: overheard 2 staff disagreeing about something in plain sight.

Cons: cleansing is very poor

Cons: Significant amount of outside noise, at second floor level. Beds very uncomfortable.

Cons: Had a problem with A/C quickly supplied a fan.

Cons: Uncomfortable ironing board

Cons: Service, cleanliness, housekeeping

Cons: This was one of the worst hotel experiences I've had in a very long time. The hotel was very poorly represented about who they are as a brand, quality of hotel, and by far not valued at 4 or 5 stars as they claim to be. Our first room was a deluxe with tower view. The carpet had tears in it, we had a leaky faucet, and later that evening we discovered the air conditioning didn't work. After many discussions with the front desk their solution was to move us to a twin bed room and put a fan in the room to cool it down. While moving our bags at 11;30 PM the bellman told us this happens quite often and they don't have maintenance on staff anymore. Having worked in hospitality and hotels all my career this is a clear sign to me that the hotel doesn't value their service levels. When having a hotel of over 700 rooms without maintenance on staff you're going to consistently have unhappy customers with service failures. I urge them to put this job back on payroll as it will help your service records considerably. After 3 phone calls the manager on duty Marga was helpful and compd breakfast and upgraded us to a suite the next night. These are all nice but it seemed like we were having to explain to them they needed to do something rather than them being apologetic about the horrible situation of our room and the huge inconvencice.

Cons: the room is outdated and clearly needs painting job the hotel lobby smells! the room is very small

Cons: The air conditioning not working and the room needing some updating

Cons: Hotel breakfast was fine, but there are also good options on St. Katherine’s Docks just behind the hotel. There is also a Tesco store and a Starbucks for even more options. Both are within the block of the hotel.

Cons: The parking garage is relatively small, so if you’re driving in your own car on the weekend, be aware. We had a hard time parking.

Cons: No air con. Stifling!

Cons: Frig in room.

Cons: crazy hot place , slow elevators , old and stinky place , did not we say hell ?

Cons: Noise from wedding music way after midnight. Slow check in and check out

Cons: Close to a major road, so you get a lot of noise :( Only two showers and two toilets between approx. 25 people. I'm actually quite surprised it wasn't too much of an issue. Bathrooms could have been a bit cleaner.

Cons: Location is awesome less than one minute from Oxford st about five minutes walk to soho and Carnaby st and about 15 to 20 minutes walk to the London eye and the tower bridge Breakfast is very good Rooms are unlike in the pictures The hotel needs a lot of updates

Cons: The room was about the size of a closet, and everything smelled.

Cons: the elevator situation was pretty bad. I don't know if some of the lifts weren't functioning or what, but we ended up taking the stairs most of the time

Cons: Poorly operating lifts. Bathroom so small. TV inoperable. WiFi requires £5 payment daily by purchasing a code from a vending machine. Long lines at check in. Long line at luggage check/collection. Never again!

Cons: The hotel lifts were very slow and 2 was not working at all , also there was work being done for the new reception area ! As I have sciatica very bad , It was very difficult using the stairs and temporary steps the hotel put in place !

Cons: Room was small, perfect for travelling as only really in the room to sleep. Was disappointed that the pool was shut for renovations while I was staying as I wasn't aware of this when booking.

Cons: However we were never informed that there was to be building works happening throughout February. This resulted in there being no room for a reception desk and little to do in the hotel as everything was cordened off. As for the rooms, they were small and dated, they also didn't have much of a blind for the windows. As there has been a neon lit build finished across the street from the hotel, the room was lit up all night. To add to this there was a false fire alarm at 4am in the morning which no one came to inform us about but we could barely hear it from our room. The shower cubicle was really small with a really powerful shower that wasn't pleasant and to top everything we had a cockroach crawl into our room just before our departure that resided under our bed. All in all multiple things went wrong with our stay and I wouldn't recommend.

Cons: No toiletries or fridge. Tiny double bed in awkwardly shaped room. In Europe it would have been marked up as a no frills business hotel and would have cost far less.
