Great little hotel in central London. As other people mention it’s not quite the ritz , but it’s very good for the price. A little run down, but if you are spending your day out in London you won’t really mind. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would stay again.

I usually stay at business class hotels but on this trip opted to save some money and selected this property. My ratings do not give them a break for being a discount property. This is a cute little hotel. I had a single room and while it was small it was warm, safe and comfortable. If you want more go stay at the Ritz. The staff was very helpful and eager to please. They know they need to work hard in a competitive market. If I were budget traveling I would stay there again.

Little run down but comfortable
The hotel is in a great location but it rather run down. It could do with some love but could be a fantastic place. The TV is so small it might as well be none existant. The cups are all miss matching. The shower could do with a de-scale and some support under the basin. The beds are comfortable and we did have a good nights sleep.

No sleep
No Sleep Due to people arguing at 2 in the morning right outside my room. Doors banging during the night that could have soft closers added tot them to prevent this

Exactly what they advertise.
The Thanet is exactly what it advertises itself. It is a 3 star with no elevator and 4 floors of rooms. The rooms were transformed into ensuite which means the bathrooms are very small. It is conveniently located to London, especially the West End, the British Museum and Covent Garden. The closest Tube station is Holburn. There is no daily maid service, like much of England and also no top sheet, again quite common in England these days.
