First Class Hotel
This is a very comfortable hotel, the staff are helpful and friendly. We were given an upgrade to a lovely big room on the 6th floor overlooking the Park. The bathroom was good and the shower was excellent. I am glad to say that the triple glazing on the windows did a very good job of keeping the considerable street noise at bay - in particular the many ambulances with sirens blaring which ran all day and night. The only slight niggle was the fact that the air-con was quite noisy. Breakfasts were very good, a first class hot buffet with hot plates too which is a must! The only evening meal we had here was excellent, so much so that I had to congratulate the chef in person(!), wish we had been able to have another meal here. Would certainly return.

Great central location and a comfortable stay
We were at the Russell for just one night as we were heading off to France next day. It was a very relaxing place to start off our holiday. The staff were all friendly and hard-working. Our room was very clean and comfortable. We were glad of a kettle and tea tray in our room. Breakfast was excellent and varied: - and what a grand dining room! The building is fabulous: there is a really grand entrance area, vestibule and stairway with Victorian marble, and pillars - beautiful, and I am so glad that this gorgeous original design has been kept. The corridors on each floor were wide and well lit. Our bedroom was modern and comfortable, and with plenty of storage for clothes. The location is terrific: a ten minute walk and we were in the British Museum. Close to excellent transport connections, bus or underground. We enjoyed our stay and will gladly go back.

Excellent stay
Had a very enjoyable stay here with my family. The check-in process was friendly and efficient and despite arriving mid-morning we were allocated rooms without any problem. The double room on the 5th floor was a decent size, well appointed, nice views and perfect for my parent's requirements. My room, a single room on the 3rd floor, was compact but perfect for me - a well furnished room with decent size desk if I had needed to work if I was here on business.The breakfast was also very good. While not spectacular in terms of choice, I could not fault the quality of the food which set me up for a days sightseeing.I choose this hotel mainly due to its location and proximity to the Tube and Euston Station. However, when I am staying in London I will definitely consider this hotel as the rates are comparable to many inferior hotels in the area.

Wow what a hotel
Stayed for my husbands 60th birthday and from start to finish it was VIP treatment all the way. The hotel building itself is beautiful steeped in history but with all the amenities you could ask for. The interior has been lovingly and sympathetically restored. The staff are friendly but very professional and not over familiar. Everywhere you look there is something of interest be it the chandeliers or oak panelling and lots of interesting information about the history of the building. The rooms are very well appointed and you can control the temp yourself which was useful as the weekend we were there the weather was very changeable. After a long day in the hustle and bustle of London the Russell is a welcome haven of calm and sophistication. I am Gluten intolerant and informed the Hotel prior to our stay . They arranged for there to be suitable foods at breakfast which was fantastic value booked for ¿¿12 each at check in.The only problem was that the shower was very temperamental to operate and on the last morning there was no soya milk for me so I had to have my coffee black which I absolutely hate. That being said I would highly recommend a stay at this hotel for special occasions as it is pricey but worth every penny and if I could afford to I would stay there every time I stayed in London.

lovely hotel
Arrived early and left bags for an hour while we had lunch. Returned to find very friendly receptionist, room 305 ready and a free upgrade. What more could you want.Room lovely on third floor with big windows in bedroom which overlooked the park. Nice large bathroom with great shower. Breakfast was one of the best I have had in a London Hotel. It was busy but staff were very quick to find and clear tables. Travelled with my sister this time but will return with my husband later in the year.
