LSE Passfield Hall

The location of Passfield Hall is one of the main attractions - it is close to the British Library, British Museum, Tottenham Court Road, underground stations etc - and of course, it is located in Bloomsbury. It is primarily a residential building for LSE students - so that is the kind of "hostel" style accommodation to expect - but it suits me and provides good value. The breakfast is provided in the "canteen" - but it is really very good and you are likely to meet people visiting from all over the world. There are also decent kitchen facilities you can use yourself on each floor. The showers etc are basic but ok. I have stayed at Passfield Hall on several trips and would do so again.

Cleanness (kitchen area and shared bathroom). Location. EXCELLENT breakfast. Comfortable bed. Linen service (towels + soap + shampoo). Spacious room with a high ceiling + a lot of natural sunlight. Well-equipped kitchen. Clean laundry room (washing + dry) with a digitalized payment system; easy to follow. Very nice and calm neighborhood with cafes + restaurants + small grocery stores; easy access to Russel Square station + bus lines. Excellent work by the housekeeping team! I must emphasize here that the kitchen area was spotless everyday!! Good job!

Our room was clean and comfortable. I had had my misgivings about sharing a bathroom and toilet, but both were kept clean and there were no problems. We had a fridge and fans in the room. The location was perfect for us as we went to the theatre the two nights we were there and it was so convenient and easy to get to the theatre area by foot. It was easy to find from Kings Cross station and was not far. The breakfast was excellent, a proper student canteen set-up with hot food, pastries, savoury food available with vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options. A coffee machine plus filter coffee and a big bonus point, which I have never encountered in any place I've stayed, is they had coffee syrups to add to your coffee.Amazing! Staff were friendly, check in was easy and security was good.

Easily walkable from Euston, also handy for the Piccadilly line at Russell Square. 24 hour reception, so no problem about check in. I indicated that I walk with a stick, and they put me on the ground floor, which was helpful. I asked for a quiet room, so they put me at the end of a corridor, furthest from reception, looking out on a quiet street near Tavistock square. No en suite, but there was a washbasin. Towels and toiletries provided, and use of a kitchen, with free tea and coffee. Everything clean and comfortable. There's a Wetherspoons nearby, so cheap food and drink, but the star of the show was the included full English breakfast. They cater for all appetites, especially large ones! This made it good value for money for central London in August. They also have a luggage room, so you can call back in the afternoon before going back to the station. I look forward to staying again, for the same price.

The Halls are just a short stroll away from Russell Square and Euston Stations. All airport are therewith easily reachable. Even though centrally located, the street is quiet. This is a 3 Storey building, with lift access to the lower two floors. The reception is manned 24/7. The staff is very polite and has been very helpful. The access to the facilities/room is via key card. The shared facilities are clean and well maintained. In the room is a sink, and a piece of soap. A sample size shampoo/ shower gel are complimentary. Linen and towels are provided. Breakfast is included, and a good variety is available. The breakfast room is located at the lower floor of the main building. There is a lovely garden and in one of the annexes, there is laundry room with new washers/dryers and an ironing board, which operated 24/7. The wash can be paid for with credit card. In walking distance of the halls are a few supermarkets, a variety of pubs and restaurants.
