Hotwire Hotel: 3* London (Bloomsbury - Marble Arch) Opulence Hotel

[paulieuk]

This is a new hotel for the list.

It's also horrible, according to tripadvisor.co.uk (ranked #993 out of 1,079). (I'm not staying but still feel bad for my friends who are.) It is, nevertheless, a saving over the hotels.com price of GBP370 (USD562) for the two nights.

Facilities showed: free breakfast, smoke free, restaurant and internet.

The hotel was as poor an experience as expected.

For anyone else who 'wins' this property, my number one tip is for anyone elderly or would otherwise struggle with five flights of stairs, to call ahead and request a ground floor room. There is no lift/elevator in the hotel, and this almost-70 year old couple had to climb to the top floor to their small cramped and hot room - there's no air conditioning either.
