Great hotel - great Location Rooms are great but just a typical city hotel very small. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet is amazing with a great variety and selection. The underground Station is very close to the hotel. It’s just a few stops away from all major attractions. Highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay here again when in London.

The hotel was beautifully decorated, the room looked clean and well maintained. I was awarded as the guest of the day and provided with breakfast and late checkout- this really made our day and could enjoy the sights even later. It was a wonderful experience and would definitely book the hotel again when in London.

10/10 Exceptional

In the city again as guests this time at the BBC Young Writers Awards, we stayed again at The President as it is in such a fabulous location in Bloomsbury and so close to St Pancras, Euston, Russell Square and Holborn. Room was immaculate and clean with a view over Russell Square gardens. Lucky enough to receive a guest's complimentary breakfast, and what a faubulous affair that was too! Cooked items, pastries, cereals, breads, fruit - it was amazing! The staff are lovely, friendly and professional, and they left a box of vegan fruit jellies for us, which were really tasty and a lovely variation addition to the already impressive hospitality tray. Well done The President, we definitely look forward to staying with you again soon!

This a good hotel for location it is close to Russell Square underground and able to get to the west end for shows quickly, Russell Square to Pccabilly Circus took about 7 minutes Ona direct line. The room was functional but nothing special for the price, a good selection for breakfast. Russell Square park has a nice Italian coffee shop.

During our trip, Ishaa and Aleksandar from staff were so helpful. Both of them welcomed us warmly, and tried to make sure that everything was alright every time they saw us. They were both so helpful, and their advices and answers to our questions made our trip easier. We had a wonderful experience in the President Hotel thanks to them, their positive energy, polite language and very helpful recommendations was the best part of the hotel.
