Hotels near Hamleys Toy Store, London

The location is great— it’s right next to Oxford Street, with plenty of shops and restaurants, and very convenient access to buses and the underground, all within walking distance. The room was clean and well-maintained. The only minor downside is that it can be a bit noisy due to the busy street outside. Overall, I would still recommend this place for its location and convenience.

When booking this hotel you known it’s not going to be the Ritz so this review is fair for the type of hotel. The location is super central yet the hotel is a zen of calm. It’s a little strange having no windows anywhere but the design works to minimise the effect. Rooms are what you expect, incredibly simple but clean and decent bathroom with toiletries and fresh towels. Decent wifi means you don’t miss a TV and this is not a hotel for lounging, it’s a bed for the night which is comfy enough if a little low to the ground. The gym is an additional fee which the website doesn’t make super clear - £10 a day. Despite the positives, the bedding was bad! Blood stained sheets and bed bugs! I was biten all over during the night and awoke to dozens of red blotches all over my body. It really puts me off returning despite everything else. It is good value for money but you don’t expect bed bugs!

I have stayed at this hotel twice in London. The location is very convenient. It is close to Russell Square. Across the square is the British Museum. It is very convenient to see exhibitions. Next to UCL, there are many students and full of vitality. The surrounding transportation is convenient. All kinds of bus stations are convenient to go anywhere. It takes 10 minutes to walk to St. Pancras and King's Cross stations. The hotel has a large passenger flow. There are many students from all over the world who come to study, so the service can keep up with it, which is very good. I think it would be hard to find a better value hotel in the area, and I recommended it to a friend visiting London last year, and the feedback was great. Continue to live afterwards.

We had a great experience on the hotel. It was clean and they gave us extra pillow upon request. Breakfast was delicious as well. Just bring your toiletries and you’re all set 🫶 Thank you! Until our next stay soon 🙏🏻

Enjoyable stay at the Astor Court Hotel. The location was excellent and the room clean neat and comfortable. The staff were helpful and friendly supplying extra pillows when we needed them. Overall I would say good value for money. The continental breakfast however was adequate but very basic so I would question if it was worth it. If you’re in a hurry then it may fit the bill otherwise I would go out to eat.

Best location but smallest room i've stayed in London. I travel alone and just needed a room with a queen bed but it was so small that my luggage cannot fit anywhere in the room. It was not ideal and not comfortable at all. the toilet was extremely tiny as well.

The hotel is about a five-minute walk from Victoria Station, and there's a supermarket nearby, which is very convenient. The hotel breakfast is rich and varied, and the staff are very nice. The hotel facilities are complete. Overall, my stay was quite good.

Location is amazing, right in the centre underground, food, shops all within walking distance. The capsule room itself is clean, mattress comfy, nice lighting and big mirror and sufficient hooks to hang stuff. Room is very quiet and surprisingly blocks out sound so great for a quiet good sleep even in the mornings when people are packing and moving around. Love that they have a fan in the room that is great to keep air circulating but can get a bit hot but lifting the shutter door a few inches helps. Although good hook space not great for someone with more than a backpack as there is no place to put a suitcase near you. Although check out is 10am the cleaners rush and can end up clearing and cleaning your room before you are even ready to check out yet. Check in progress is supposed to be easy but in trying to make things easier they just made more unnecessary steps. Like you can check in online but still have to check in when you arrive? There is security at the door at all times which feels safe as you have to confirm you have a room key before they let you into the building. Shared bathroom is close by to the room, showers are great plenty of hot water, sufficient space to put your stuff and hang stuff, toilets lack hooks and insufficient sink space compared to showers and toilets. No room to place essentials when using the sink and although they try cleaning the shared bathroom is lacking just due to the amount of people having to share that one bathroom. I would say at least 3 rooms have access to that one shared bathroom and each of those big rooms can fit 30+ people if full. Overall for a short overnight trip I would definitely stay again just due to comfort and location.

Very good location in London. Near to train station or tube Great Portland Street. Very convenient. However, the hotel is designed like a maze. If you are unlucky and have rooms away from the lift, you may need to walk for about 3-5 mins. For location, I fully recommend. But for the price, I think you can find somewhere else smaller so you don't have to walk 3-5 mins to your room.

Great location, right downstairs in Chinatown, so dining and shopping are incredibly convenient. The only minor issues are that there's no parking right in front of the hotel, and there's a step at the entrance which makes pulling luggage a bit tricky.
