When we arrived the woman on reception came over as very cool and not very welcoming. This is the only criticism we have of our stay. We have stayed here several times in the past and have always been very pleased with the food and the service. When we checked out Hamib LL70ZKY was very pleasant and checked with us if everything was satisfactory and we will definitely stay

We really enjoyed our stay at the Thistle! Our room was larger than expected, the staff was friendly and helpful, and it was super convenient having the bus stop right outside. It was also a close walk to Covent Garden and The Strand. We'd definitely recommend!

The location is ideal as it is a short walk to the Holborn tube station and the Tottenham Court station. The British Museum is in the "backyard," and many theatres are within walking distance. The inhouse restaurant is excellent. The staff was nice, but they didn't overextend themselves. My room was small and clean, but the noise of the trash being collected outside the window every morning was annoying.
