We thought it was very central to where we were going to visit and near Kings Cross Station. Would stay again but not on the top floor . The stair carpet was very worn and I thought was unsafe.

Would not stay there again as I was running the marathon I only had a bag with running kit but as there was no wardrobe in the room at all I could not hang anything up if I wanted to and no towel in the room.

The rooms were really clean and the Hotel was very up to date. The breakfast staff and room let the whole place down. They did not want to speak to us and did not listen when we asked for a coffee so we had to ask again. The location was very good for places we wanted to visit.

I did only stay in Melville Hotel for two weeks. The only positive aspect was that the rooms were clean. But there was no table, only a staple-chair where I put my notebook on. No cupboard to put my clothes into, only a little box with three damaged drawers. The heating was very low, so that I used the towel-warmer to get the room warm. The bed was very big, big enough for two people. The bathroom was very small without any possibility to put things somewhere. The so called curtain had a kind of watered border. The breakfast was always cold toast. After three days I had to go for breakfast to the Albion Hotel, because there were not enough guests in Melville Hotel.

This hotel is probably one of the worst i have stayed in, the carpets were threadbare, the showers and toilets were tiny, there were no wardrobes or drawers to put your clothing in but a fridge was in the room!! The floorboards creaked with every movement. We stayed for 4 days and during that time only had one shower as the water was freezing, the toilet handle broke so could not be flushed and I was greeted with a toilet bowl full of loo roll as no-one had put an out of order sign on the door. On another floor one of the toilets light switch did not work. On a good note the location was good and the bedding clean. I was glad to get home.
