Mentone Reviews

Good hotel very close to the town centre and the tube station. Some problems with Wi-Fi to be improved. Delicious full English breakfast!

We wanted somewhere convenient for Euston station and the west end - this area is ideal. Considering the proximity to the Euston Road, Cartwright Crescent is remarkably quiet.
The staff were very efficient and quickly provided towel and hairdrier when asked.
The room was basic but very clean and of a reasonable size. I think it classifed as a family room - although we had booked a double. The larger of the two beds was not a proper sized double bed, fortunately we like being close.
The breakfast was good and plentiful.
Overall - clean, efficient, no frills, good value.

We did not have a problem but others did, it does not accommodate all the guests.

The hotel was very pleasant, comfortable and clean. It is a 5 minute walk from Russell Square tube station. There is a nice local pub around the corner for a cheeky beer. We shared the attic room for 4 adults. As expected this was a little compact but perfectly adequate and made our stay a bargain for central London. Breakfast was included and was nicely cooked and served very efficiently. Would certainly consider staying here again if visiting central London.

Absolutely great value for money. Very friendly staff, good size room, great ensuite and all very clean.

Very nice little hotel for the money - which was very cheap for this part of London. Nice small room, decent breakfast, nice staff. Will stay again.

Room is down in the basement and is a bit grim - there's no need to turn the light on as the yellow spotlights from outside the hotel illuminate the room well enough.
Dodgy plumbing - there's a knack to flushing the toilet and having a hot shower that took me a few attempts to master and the hotel staff were no that helpful in sorting these problems.
But if you want somewhere cheap, clean and centrally based to crash after a late night out there's no point paying for an expensive hotel.

The Mentone is a decent, inexpensive, well-located hotel. I was given a basement room which was spacious, but a bit noisy. The building is old and the floorboards are creaky, so if the people in the room above choose to pace the floor in the early hours of the morning, it's a problem. The desk closes at midnight and generally the hotel settles down after that, but there was a lot of coming and going between 11 and 12, so its not the place for light sleepers.

My partner and I were so amazed at how clean our room was. Lovely size bedroom. Bathroom clean and fresh. Only downfall was that it was a little cold. However our stay was enjoyable and we will definitely come back again. Good price too.

The hotel was a little hard to find but was in a very quiet square so was a good choice for a London stay. The bed was especially comfortable and I got a very good night's sleep. A friend had stayed there and raved about the breakfast but my experience was not entirely positive. I asked for Earl Grey tea which is pretty bog standard these days and was told they only had "tea". I then asked for brown toast and was told they only had white bread. How hard can it be to buy a brown loaf and a box of E G teabags? The gentleman at the next time was also a little irritated by the inflexibility of the approach to food. I would stay there again but will look for other options when booking. If they had got the customer service at breakfast right I would not have felt the need to look elsewhere.
