Central Hotel Golders Green

This is a very basic hotel. It has a good location near Golders Green underground station. The rooms are basic and a little outdated, but reasonably clean and comfortable. The wi-fi worked well. A good value accommodation in London.

The reception is not always open and the phone number that is on the door was unreachable. It wasn't a problem for us as we could wait, but there were other guests who couldn't check in when they arrived. The windows in one of our rooms didn't close. There was no fridge in our room. There was coffee/sugar and a kettle in the room, but no cups.

Location central to our activities in London

Quite basic but then cheap and cheerful

The lovely girl who checked us in was great. Very polite and chatty and just really nice. We rated her. The bed was really comfortable, had a great night sleep and only a short walk from the bus stop

It just wasn't a clean room. Mould on the bathroom ceiling, room smelt of damp and wet. Dust everywhere. Bathroom was so compact and had no shower curtain, so was impossible not to get water everywhere when showering. Curtain rail but no curtain. Curtain rail was just fully rusted too. Just felt dirty. Pillows were yellow and stained. Had a kettle with coffee and sugar, but no milk and or tea which was odd. Provided towels were tiny. Our room was in a separate building. When we checked out the main building where reception is was locked. Rang the bell and no answer. Rang the hotel, no answer. Rang a mobile number on a sign in their window for assistance, girl who answered was on holiday. I had a wander around the back of the hotel and found a door propped wide open. I went in and left the keys for the room at reception with a note written on the back of a sea life centre flyer. Just staff seemed sparse. Poor service really. A couple were waiting to check in as we left and they just had nobody seeing to them
