Bed & Breakfast Elizabeth - London

We had a great stay at the Elizabeth Hotel. We were upgraded to a two bedroom flat from a quad room at no additonal charge. This provided a living room and kitchen. This was great! We enjoyed the wonderful breakfast and WIFI access in the lobby. It is in a good location near Victoria Station. Ask for the key to the park in the square. The only negative for us was that the elevator(lift)made horrible scraping noises which were kind of scary. The hotel is a bit run down. It could use some new furnishings and paint. We would recommend using the buses in London since many go to Victoria Station. They are convenient and you see the city as opposed to the Underground.

Superb location especially for visiting Chelsea Flower Show and using Victoria Coach Station and Rail Station. Staff are welcoming and very friendly. Wonderful to be able to use the beautiful gardens of Ecclestone Square. The breakfast had excellent variety and was well prepared and served. We would certainly use the hotel again and recommend it to our friends.

E' un ottimo tre stelle. L'English Breackfast è davvero ottima ed abbondante. Unica nota negativa: con la scusa che la stampante non funzionava non mi hanno fatto la ricevuta e non me l'hanno neanche spedita anche se promessami.

I chose B&B Elizabeth because it is close to Victoria station and to the bus station to Stansted airport,i was travelling with 5 ex students,i knew the area as i lived and worked in London long ago,i go there when i have time,very often i take my friends around to visit my "2nd home in the world"!I didn't know anything about your b&b but i'm really happy,(so my students are),to have had a really pleasent staying,even if i had booked for a 4bed room and i had a room with 2single beds and a double bed!it was a problem,not so bad at the end of the nice holiday, but simly i don't like to share my bed with anybody else,unless i want to!!!Anyway breakfast was great,the staff very kind,what else? a bit too expensive for single travellers!I know i could not spend my weekends there when i travel alone,it is too much,i'm sorry!

Hi, what was surprising about the Elisabeth hotel was that the rate corresponds to the space you have. You can see on the picture that the rooms on the upper floors are smaller...But anyway, the receptists are very professional, if not very friendly, but, well, they are brit, aren't they?.Nevertheless,I should'nt say so cause I really appreciated Barbara, the kind of familylike atmosphere, really clean and warm. The Victoria district is ideal to visit London, central, cheap,colored. We have seen a little truck covered with fake grass, and flowers,so cute!...

Elizabeth had a great location and was very close to the Victoria Theaters and Victoria Station. Make sure that you are familiar with the street layouts in London before your arrival as finding the B&B can be difficult with the map that is given online. The breakfast area was cute and the staff were very friendly!

Location is excellent - clean, quiet, nice - yet very close to Victoria station so very easy coming in from Gatwick airport or getting around within the city by subway; staff were very friendly and helpful; breakfast was good;nice little park across the street to relax in when you want a break from exploring the more hectic parts of London;comfortable beds, very clean and quiet room. On the negative side, the rooms are very small (which is normal for London) but also very warm. Outside temperature was only 20 celcius yet in the room must have been 25 or more - maybe because it's an old building with poor air circulation and you can't open the windows more than a crack. Probably this wouldn't be an issue any time besides summer but the heat would make me think twice about booking there in the summertime again. Can't imagine how hot it would be if the outside temperature was 25 or 30! Overall I'd say an awesome place to stay 9 months of the year.

* Stain on bedspread...some mildew and paint peeling * Accessing this room required taking an elevator to the 4th floor; then descending down a very narrow flight of stairs to the room. * The room should have a fire escape map on the back of the dorr. * Additionally lighting above/near the beds would be nice for reading

Very satisfactory B&B in Victoria Station area. Easy walking distance to the Tube and the train station. Got to see a wonderful play in the theater directly across from Victoria Station. Pleasant pub nearby where we had reasonably priced fish & chips. Breakfast room was small and crowded resulting in guests having to stand and wait for seating to become available. We would definitely stay here again. Good value for price in London.

The location was very good. However the room was very small, but all we needed was a place to sleep and take a bath. There was not good sound proofing and you could hear other people using the bathroom. I believe that the price was really high (80pounds for B&B no bathroom ensuite), but this is London! At least the communal bathroom was quite clean!

Wer London kennt, weiss "Gutes kann nicht preiswert sein". Aber für sein Geld kann man sich hier wirklich wohl fühlen. Tolles English Breakfast (Frischkost-Fanatiker werden Obst suchen), saubere warme Zimmer. Wir hatten ein sehr ruhiges. Klein, aber zum Übernachten reicht es. Freundlicher Service. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

We were here as part of our honeymoon and the room served us quite well. It's located only a few minutes walk from Victoria station where you can get the National Rail to parts of Great Britian and the underground through London. There are many pubs and restaurants in the area and it's about a 15 min walk from Buckingham Palace. The room itself (a double en suite) was very nice and adequete for what we needed it for (somewhere to sleep and leave our stuff while we toured around London). They had a tea tray set up in the room, a nice little tv and a giant wardrobe. The bed was not all that comfortable, but it did just fine. The bathroom was VERY small, but again, it did just fine. The breakfast that was included was great. There was a cold buffet and you could order from a hot menu. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The only real negative issue was where our room was located - beside the entrance and lift. It got quite noisey one night while I was trying to sleep, but not much can be done about that. Overall, it was a good stay here.

Myself & my daughter along with aprox. 8/10 guests had to wait up to 30 minutes each morning for a free table in the Breakfast Room. The breakfast room appeared to be way too small for a busy hotel. Waiting diners were left standing in the corridor without explanation or apology from staff. However, on complaining at check-out, I was compensated with a refund of the cost of breakfast and a full apology given.

Allora...da dove iniziare?direi subito che il bilancio è senza alcun dubbio positivo: la struttura è carina,pulita,ben concentrata,le stanze forse un pò piccole,ma n eccessivamente.io avevo prenotato una doppia, poi una singola, poi una doppia,beh, ho fatto praticamente impazzire la direzione che però si è dimostrata sempre molto disponibile a affettuare i cambiamenti richiesti.in stanza c'era un letto alla francese..piuttosto grande, ottimo per due persone, e poi c'era un terzo letto.ed è infatti li che ho trovato spazio per i bagagli....perchè altrimenti non avrei saputo dove metterli...(spazio limitato in stanza).Ah, dimenticavo, c'era anche un bel balcone che affacciava sul guardino di fronte.molto piacevole. Il bagno?beh,stesso discorso.piccolo, ma ci si muove tranquillamente.molto pulito.La colazione è variegata,c'era molta scelta, sono rimasta però interdetta quando ho ordinato bacon e uova e mi è arrivato un piatto con una fettina misera e piccola di bacon e un uovo fritto.quella fettina sottile e minuscola mi ha fatto davvero ridere...vabbè, forse avrei dovuto chiederne io di più...certo è però che sono uscita dalla sala sazia.non avevo più fame.quindi il tutto è stato più che abbondante.La collocazione:ottima, davvero a due passi da stansted coach station.il quartiere è tranquillo e sicuro.(questo per le regazze che viaggiano da sole) Beh, vi chiederete dunque qual è il problema?beh, il prezzo.99 pounds sono tantini se si pensa in termini di euro....beh,resta però il fatto che se si considerano i prezzi di londra,e lo stato delle stanze che generalmente vengono offerte a prezzi minori,(bettole) credo sia meglio spendere un pò di più e ritrovarsi un un posto caldo e accogliente quale la struttura ELIZABETH.se dovessi ritrovarmi a londra e volessi andare in un posto strategicamente centrale, in un quartiere tranquillo e sicuro, e in una bella struttura,ci ritornerò sicuramente!!!SO GO TO ELIZABEHT!IT S A GOOD PLACE TO STAY!

La pulizia è buona ed il personale cortesissimoe paziente (anche quando ci sono problemi di comunicazio per scarsa conoscenza dell'inglese: di solito i londinesi sono piuttosto insofferenti e scostanti in questi casi), gli spazi un po' esigui (stanza piccola, bagno minuscolo, con ANCORA i rubinetti acqua calda e fredda separati anche nel getto, senza quindi possibilità di miscelare: o ti scotti o ti geli!!!) In sostanza accettabile rapporto qualità-prezzo, ottima ubicazione. Potebbe essere meglio, ma Londra è cara e ci si può quindi accontentare. Consigliabile a chi non vuole salassi, e stare abbastanza comodo.

Familia Española (4 personas) Limpio. Muy amables (por supuesto, algunas de las personas más que otras, pero en general encantadores y, la que menos, simplemente correcta). Algo caro si fuese España, pero hay que tener en cuenta que hablamos de LONDRES, así que se puede considerar que es barato. El desayuno, genial: no tienen en el buffet leche caliente, pero si se la pides a las chicas, te la traen al momento; napolitanas recién hechas, croissants, magdalenas... Cereales Kellog's, tostadas calientes, desayuno típico inglés con salchichas, revuelto, champiñones, habichuelas... De todo, se podía repetir hasta la saciedad. En las habitaciones y en la sala de TV, café, té y cacao para tomar en cualquier momento. MUY acogedor. Muy cerca de Victoria Station, lo que quiere decir que está bien comunicado con TODO. Caminando, se llega al Backingham Palace en 10 minutos y en unos 15 a Westminster (a la Abadía, al Big Ben, al London Eye...).

The smallest room in all of Europe, typical 5 firedoors leading the way to our bedroom on the top floor. Window was the size of a small pillow, not good during a heatwave. They do have an elevator, however beware of large luggage, it may not fit in your room, no exaggeration. Yet, the room and shared bathroom were very clean, and had so many amenities. The breakfast is to die for, remember that you get the buffet and an order for all the sausages, eggs, toast etc. and it's included so don't be shy. Neighboorhood is safe and close to bus and train stations, great for taking trips to Oxford, Windsor etc.

Hôtel bien situé, près de la station Victoria. La chambre à 4 lits que nous avions était située au rez, côté rue, et de ce fait elle était bruyante. La matin, pour le petit-déjeuner, mieux vaut se lever tôt pour éviter d'attendre avant d'avoir une table de libre. Le prix de la chambre est trop élevé, mais c'est habituel pour Londres. C'est malgré tout un hôtel à recommander, sans problème.

Somos una familia formada por cuatro personas: padre, madre y dos niñas pequeñas de 9 y 6 años que hemos compartido una habitación cuádruple durante tres noches en la primera semana de diciembre. El hotel está bien situado, en una zona residencial con muy buenas comunicaciones para desplazarse cómodamente a cualquier lugar de Londres (a cinco minutos andando de la estación Victoria). Elegí este hotel principalmente por su ubicación, por el buen precio que tenía y porque los comentarios en la web de Venere eran bastante buenos. En general no está mal, pero pude comprobar personalmente, un comentario que hizo en Venere otro usuario de este hotel, y es el olor tan extraño que invade todo el hotel, más intenso en el hall de entrada y menos intenso a medida que vas entrando o, quizas, a medida que tu nariz se va acostumbrando. El hotel es un poco agobiante en sus dimensiones, muy estrecho y con todos los espacios muy reducidos. Muchas veces pensé en la posibilidad de que ocurriera algún percance, como un incendio o algo así y creo que tendríamos problemas para conseguir salir de su interior. La limpieza de las habitaciones es bastante simple. Se puede decir que están limpias aunque no higienicamente limpias. Aunque las sábanas y las fundas de las almohadas estaban bastante bien, las mantas y las colchas estaban muy súcias y con muchas manchas. Además las colchas tenían una especie de electricidad estática que hacía que dieran calambre. Las quitamos todas y las pusimos en un lugar apartado para no entrar en contacto con ellas por tres motivos: su aspecto, suciedad y descargas. Lo mejor era el desayuno: bien servido y bien preparado. Desayuno inglés completo y todo tipo de complementos. No creo que vuelva a utilizar este hotel. No está mal del todo, pero si volviera otra vez intentaría buscar algo mejor y diferente, aunque fuera más caro (que seguro que lo será).

The heating in the whole hotel is very hot, a small fan is supplied but as you cannot open the windows the temperture is stiffling. Also the place is a rabbit warren we had to get the lift to the fourth floor then walk down to the third floor, through numberous interconnecting doors to get to our room. However if is clean and comfortable and very well located, I just wish they would turn the central heating down.

The staff was quite friendly and welcoming. As with most European hotel rooms, the space is small, but I am fully aware of the space difference between the US and Europe. Although the diff is quite large, one must appreciate that space in Europe is small, but not a bad thing once you open your mind to the fact that there are diff regarding what we are used to here, especially in Texas. But the hotel is adjacent to many other hotels and the street is quite charming, with in fact a beautiful view from Eccelston Rd. The location to Victoria station is great, especially if you are taking the Gatwick Express! I would definitely stay again, and I am considering it, strongly, I might add.

This is a good hotel in a very convenient location. Considering how close it is to Victoria Station, the neighborhood is quiet. The rooms are clean. The staff is accomodating. There is a cooked-to-order breakfast. The only minor flaw was a tendency to run out of hot water in the morning. Otherwise, this a very nice place to stay.
