The Station Hotel

Convenient for central London, great pub and garden

Friendly staff, easy check in and good location with transport links.

Location (quick train ride to central London), price (excellent for London), delicious pub food, staff (did their best to accommodate my needs), quiet nights (pub section closed at 11:00 p.m.) and clean, crisp sheets.

Warning: do not bring heavy bags. No elevator, and staff not readily available to bring up bags to my room on the top floor, so I brought them up myself. Nothing wrong with this except it is not noted in listing and unless one has stayed in pub accommodations before, one might not be aware of this. However, there was a kind staff member who helped bring luggage down for my departure. Also slackness in cleanliness--drinking glass in bathroom had been rinsed out but not properly cleaned--evidence of someone else's toothbrush/toothpaste in my glass, same with teacup in room, rinsed not washed. Either vacuum not working properly or carpet had not been vacuumed before my arrival and certainly not in the gap between the twin beds.

Staff really helpful. Location really helpful and close travel options into the city

Needs a little attention and maintenance. Dinner a little poor for price Great breakfast
