Best Western London Highbury

When I arrived the foyer looked very modern and I was expecting the same in the room. Was I mistaken. Very drab 70’s furniture, a TV that didn’t work and a bathroom you couldn’t swing a goldfish in because it was very hard to actually turn around in there. Room was very very warm and no aircon meant there was an industrial size floor fan in there which made a hell of a racket. And the bed. My god I don’t know where they ( or should I say when they) got them but are seriously outdated now. We asked for two single beds as it was myself and my daughter staying there, and you couldn’t get a match between them because of how small the room is. So not really the best there. If I was you as soon as you get there ask for more towels because I’ve got bigger tea towels than they provide! The breakfast looked really really nice. Good selection to choose from but then you got to taste it. Over salty bacon. Tinned mushrooms that resembled slugs in water. Very cheap and nasty orange juice but the sausages were very nice. The hotel has good transport links into the Center of London and the car park there is good and it’s a cheap alternative to some places around but if you can afford it look to book somewhere a bit more modern less

Another Best Western again that needs a little TLC . Can’t fault the size of the room was outside in the carpark but it was a mini apoartment . 2 bedrooms a etc but as with a lot of hotels these days the general up keep isn’t great and just needs some money spent on it .. Great location though opposite Finsbury Park great for running if that’s your thing and plenty near bye food drink etc. a big plus with London it has free parking . Would come back if I’m the area less

Spent one night. Single room. Very clean. Staff on reception were very helpful. Room small, however it was for one person so perfect size!! Very impressed. Would use this hotel again. Half an hour door to door to covent garden. less

It's a friendly budget hotel with good basic amenities close to transport links for the city. Stayed with my wife for a weekend catching up with daughter/nephews in the area and a day out to the city at Museums, dining and theatre. Good on site car parking (£10/night) was convenient as I don't often drive into London so I left it there and took tube or bus, all in easy walking distance. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Yes, there was some noise from other guests at night but it's a city location with family groups of all ages visiting so nothing unexpected, felt like a safe environment for a family visit to the city. Room was big enough (it's a budget hotel, at least we could walk each side of the bed) for our three night stay - we were only in it overnight - and it was kept very clean and tidy as was the shower room, which had a good supply of hot water. Buffet breakfast was simple and good with fresh selection of cooked and continental breakfast in a simple dining area that was kept clean and tidy by friendly staff. We used our room (on 2nd floor, lift always quick) as a base for going out to meet up with family and enjoy the amenities of a nor inexpensive city so it was ideal for us and would stay again if visiting this part of the city. less

it is what it is. a small hotel on the outskirts of London not far from the underground. I was disturbed by a lot of door banging noise, but there was a group party with a number of children so I may have just been unlucky. No Restaurant so had to go out to find a takeaway. Breakfast room was more of a canteen set up. Perhaps a good place if visiting London for leisure purposes and wanting to stay on outskirts for a slightly cheaper rate, but not great for a weary business traveller, with work to do and just wanting to eat, work and sleep. less
