"Would stay again, excellent position."
This hotel delivers what it says . Good sized clean room and en suit. Pleasant courteous staff . Excellent position to easily walk to many sights and experiences. If it was good enough for John, Paul, George and Ringo for six weeks in 1963 , it has kept its standard !

"Pleasant extended weekend break"
Fourth time we have stayed with your hotel group, second time at the President , and we were not disappointed. Clean room, clean facilities, good breakfast, with staff handling the Saturday/Sunday scrum very well. Hotel is well placed for shopping/sightseeing/shows which is why we choose the Russell Square area. Will return.

"Comfortable stay"
Room was clean and comfy. Location was ok with a Tube station just around the corner although Oxford Street and the West End are within walking distance. Breakfast was decent enough although drinks at breakfast are awful. Watery orange juice and tea from a flask which was undrinkable. It would be so easy to provide a teabag and hot water !!

"Ideal for break"
Staff helpful and friendly, accommodation good...comfortable. BUT hotel does not provide herbal teas either in room or at breakfast. Choice of breakfast cerals very limited. These items need attention. Not good for a London Hotel.

"good, functional,cheap"
Fine for the money. not exactly full of character but then that is not why you choose to stay in this type of hotel! Handy for the British museum as just on the other side of russell Square.

"Excellent vaue for money and added to a great weekend experience."
The President hotel is a large hotel positioned off Russel Square close to many attractions in London. The room was clean and comfortable and ideal for the weekend. Upon arrival the hotel had provided a bottle of wine and card as we were celebrating our golden wedding anniversary with the weekend away. It was a perfect start to our weekend and it only got better. The staff were all very polite, professional could not do enough for you. the food was great and plentiful and the bar was smart and an ideal way to relax after a busy day. I can only thank all the staff and management for making our weekend so memorable and hope to re-visit in the near future. Thankyou all again.

A lovely clean, tidy hotel in a beautiful part of London, an area full of history and architecture. Close enough to walk to all major attractions, if feel energetic and want to take in all of London. If not then its right by the Russell Square tube station on the Piccadilly Line. Would stay here again without hesitation.

"President hotel London "
Very reasonable hotel, entrance and Atrium bar were quite a surprise looking fairly impressive. The rooms are compact but after a day walking around London seeing the sights and taking in an evening show just perfect for a good night`s sleep. Breakfast was included, all you can eat buffet style we were happy with what was served up however it would have been nice to see some fruit available.
