What is it to stay at the Grenville you ask? What isn’t it ?-I say How does a stay in central London with a personal aviary, complimentary white noise machine, intimacy sized beds - intimacy sized everything for that matter , from the beds to the shower/sink/toilet closet sound? This place has 2 stars posted on the street , you will never find a more self aware honest rating , the staff were very kind and helpful and for what it is and location it gets 5 stars.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Terrible in all ways unfortunately, we had what felt like a port-a-loo in the bedroom, showering well…. You could have pi**ed harder. After long walks around London this shower is not what you wanted. The flooring was missing and broken in many parts of our room. The tv was good if you have superman vision if not you won’t see it at all. Staff were pretty ok on arrival, but after our key card stopped working and we went back into another hotel to get it fixed, he made us wait 15 minutes in scorching heat inside where the only aircon was in his office. Not a place I’d recommend or ever want to stay again.

Excellent Base of Operations

Really lovely hotel with character. Loved the oddly shaped rooms. They were clean and the bed was AMAZING. I have mobility issues and they were brilliant, offering a room on the ground floor. This hotel is not suitable for someone in a wheelchair though as the reception is up 10 steps, but otherwise 10/10.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
First review but felt it was important for other travellers to be aware. Stayed at this hotel for one night in London. On arrival staff were friendly. However, the quality of the room was very poor. The duvet cover had a hole in it, the pillows were very uncomfortable, and the mattress was very old as the springs were very prominent and could be felt easily. The bathroom sink was blocked and smelt and the shower had mould in it and the water pressure was more like a trickle. The rooms surrounding were very loud, no sound proofing so didn't get a good night sleep. Overall, would not stay again.

Handy hotel for Kings Cross

Room was clean and hot but could hardly move in the bathroom. It is an old house though, so is to be expected. Continental breakfast was okay.

Clean, friendly and comfy

I stayed here for one night before catching a very early train, the people were friendly and helpful and the room was clean and comfy. I can't rate the breakfast as I left too early. I would stay here again.
