The Selfridge - London, United Kingdom 

Not worth it
Posted: Tue, Jul 01 2008
Stayed there for one night and I have to say that it was not worth the price tag. The room was very small and run down. The breakfast was ok but all the surroundings were awful and the clothes that the staff was wearing was dirty and very,very worn down. The location was good though.

Needs some tender loving care.

This hotel is located in a good position and you can easily get from here to all the attractions London has to offer, tube nearby etc. My husband booked this trip from Wednesday until the Saturday and we went to a couple of musicals. Great. We did expect a small room and yes it was a small room and small bathroom. I'm 5'5" and my knees just about touched the side of the bath when sitting on the toilet. (The bath side was in a bad state of repair). The furniture was old and stained. The walls were really dirty and scuffed. I did not put any clothes into the drawers, however, we did hang clothing in the wardrobe. No iron or ironing board here hust a trouser press. There was tea and coffee making facilities. This room was a flash back to the 70's and looked as though it hadn't been refurbished since then. The windows were old and badly fitting. The thick curtains just about kept the wind out. All linen i.e. bedding and towels were clean however and the breakfasts were good. This hotel was o.k. for a few days. I would not use this hotel again as it the rooms are in dire need of some tender loving care. I'm sure there are hotels in the vicinity that have rooms which are cleaner.

Good and bad experience

Arrived to find we didn’t have the double room we booked, they could now only supply a twin room, then when we went to the room we found it was a smoking room. Went back to complain at reception who were very understanding, they booked us into the Marble Arch Hotel 2 mins away (same group Thistle hotels) and up graded us to a great room. Second day had to move back to the Selfridge, which was a shame because the Marble Arch was so good. Checking in good room ok but needs updating. Breakfast was very poor, service not very good and had to wait sometime for the food to arrive at the self-service bar. Would not recommend the Thistle Selfridge but would recommend the Thistle Marble Arch

The room was very small for American standards but for London standards wasn't too bad.
