The 2-star St Athans Hotel London offers 60 rooms with proximity to River Fleet, which is approximately a 5-minute walk from the property. The hotel also provides guests with 24-hour security and luggage storage.

Location

The historic Tower of London is about 4 km from this hotel, and the Oxford Street is 2.5 km from it. Religious sights in the area include the Protestant Westminster Abbey (2.9 km) and St Paul's Anglican Cathedral (2.3 km).

The St Athans is within 25 minutes' walk of the privately run Sherlock Holmes Museum.

This accommodation is just near Russell Square tube station, providing easy access to all the London's attractions.

Eat & Drink

Guests can dine at the restaurant Valencia located 100 metres away.

“This two-star hotel in London struck me as a practical base, prioritizing location and budget-friendly rates. I noted that previous visitors found the rooms clean and the staff welcoming; the trade-off seems to be basic amenities and potential noise. If you plan to explore the city and need an affordable place to sleep, it's a reasonable option.”

a reasonable stay

friendly staff efficient check-in small bed shared bathrooms
the staff was friendly. check-in was prompt and efficient. the location is perfect, really central. i found the hotel to be perfect, especially if you are looking to save money.
the bed was small. my friend and i are average-sized women. the bathrooms were fine, but two shared bathrooms weren't enough for the whole upstairs. it felt average overall.

convenient location helpful staff private bathroom noisy floor complex layout elevator absence
The location proved quite convenient. It was easy to access different parts of the area. The staff were helpful and provided quick assistance. The room included three beds and a private bathroom.
The old building has some drawbacks. The wooden floors and stairs are quite noisy. The layout of floors and corridors is complex. The building lacks an elevator.
