Good service, clean and pretty new rooms, with all the needed facilities. The breakfest is standard and fair and the overall value for money is very good.The qudrouple room is pretty tiny for 4 adults, but if you don't really mind about personal space- it's great.

I booked 3 single beds but the hotel gave us a double and a single bed because do can not get what you booked on the website.There are more people then tables for breakfast.

I've stayed in plenty of budget hotels and hostels across Europe and I'm a big fan of camping, I mention this to make it clear that I am not very fussy when it comes to where I stay when I travel. However this shocking establishment is absolutely off the scale. Firstly almost the entire hotel(apart from our room) was under refurbishment(and my god it needs it) so there was alot of noise from the builders the entire time my friend and I stayed in the hotel(early morning and late at night). The member of staff literally gave us a key and told us in broken english that there was a room for us upstairs, we reluctantly made our way to the top floor by walking up staircases covered in filthy dustsheets to find a truely disgusting room. I could feel the abundance of dust build up on the back of my throat within minutes and I wondered how long it had been since the room was last cleaned(or if indeed it has ever been considered by the staff at all?!). As well as the general layers of dust around the entire room, there was a large clump of pubic hair left in the shower basin and pieces of cheese in the cupboard(as ridiculous as this sounds I am not making this up). The bedroom door was very thin and the "lock" was very flimsy so we didn't feel very safe in the room at night. The shower is bizarely located in the corner of the bedroom so unless you are a couple staying together this is a rather arkward arrangement. The showerhead wouldn't actually work unless you shook it a few times to release trapped air in the pipes(this was required every time). The beds were very uneven and felt as though they would give way at any moment. The mirror is placed right next to the bedroom window in a part of the room far away from the single lightbulb provided so it might as well not exist. There is no kettle provided in the room and the staff were never around(we just left our keys on a desk when we "checked out"). Given how shocking this place is the price is a total ripoff and we regret not demanded a refund as soon as we saw our room. I would strongly advise that nobody ever considers staying at Hotel Acropolis for any reason whatsoever! I actually feel ashamed that people from other countries will visit England and stay here because hotels in this day and age should meet basic cleanliness and hygiene standards at the very least!

As an engagement present my fiance booked tickets to see our favorite comedian at the Apollo, he booked the acropolis hotel as it is only 10 mins walk away from theater and tube station. upon arrival we were met by some clueless shifty looking hotel workers, the overall atmostphere of the hotel is rather drug den chic. not nice! we paid ¿¿70 up front to be told our room number and basically left to find it on our own. our room was on the top floor to get there we had to pass two floors of building work where they were literally pulling the walls down, the room we were given had a single bed in it with a sink immediately next to the pillow, it was dirty, there was rags in the wardrobe, furniture was falling apart, no kettle and to top it off what only can be described as a porta-shower with half a door and acouple of beetles - yuck! we rang my mother in law to get on the internet and find us alternative accommodation. we then went downstairs to argue for our money back to which we were told "we have a better hotel" we were then told to walk down the street to the plaza hotel to find this was exactly the same setup. we returned to speak to the manager and after 2 hours of speaking to him and calling the travel company we booked with we were able to get our money back, right in time to book into the k-west hotel and spa (which is absolutely stunning and where we spent the rest of our stay). the manager of the acropolis although being a bit strange did try to help us get our money back and did seem to understand his hotel was crap. This hotel is a hovel and disgusting please do not book this as it will ruin your stay in london.

This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. Words do not do it justice. I'l keep it to the main points:-It is apsolutly filthy, from the mound of pubic hair in the shower, to the layers of dust and decay present all around. The extra blankets provided for our beds may well have come from a 3rd world hospital. -It is a building site. Not just a little work going on here and there, but a proper building site. We had to walk over the builders sheets on the floors to get to our room. The sound of drills and machinery was present most of the day. -Safety: Or lack of it. There was a power cable with an extension plug going across our room, running past the sink, just ready to be splashed by the tap. The springs in the bed were broken. The wardrobe was a gust of wind away from collapse. -Service: Reception doubles up as a dining room and kitchen. Staff lack basic English and communication skills. They appeared not to have any concept their hotel might be lacking.-Lack of services: This hotel lacks even the most basic ammenities. The tv in the room had no channels working. The iron and ironing board provided were unsafe and totally inadequate. The place was freezing at all times and the shower in our room was actually inside the room staring at us like a phonebox from the corner. I am sure I have missed alot more out. Anyone that has ever wondered what the guesthouses in Orwell's "Down and Out in Paris and London" might have been like can find out at The Acropolis...
