I absolutely loved Thistle Euston and everything it had to offer. I stayed here with my two cousins in London for five nights. Not too expensive, because we booked with Cosmos. The room was comfy and cozy, and the porters made us feel right at home. Be sure to ask for Herbert, Michael, and Willem (guy who looks like Tin-Tin). They gave exceptional service and even gave us a lot of information on where to go around London. Would definitely stay there again. Only one bad thing, the food sucked, but we usually missed breakfast being that we woke up at 12 pm.
The location of this hotel is excellent, less than 200 yards from Euston station, great for underground and rail connection as well as lots of choice for quick breakfast at the many outlets at the station. However, the rooms are extremely small. If you try to accommodate the child in your room.
Location, cleanliness and generally friendly staff.
Either people have incredibly high expectations or the Thistle are really trying hard to turn things around.
The room was perfectly nice and clean, with flat screen TV, en suite bathroom with nice toiletries.
The front desk staff were friendly and professional, and genuine.
This isn't a "destination" hotel but I paid around ?50 for it, and its a stone's throw from central London. See what else you can get for the price, this is probably the best value you'll find.
Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel.
