Recently stayed at the Travelodge London Central City Road. Here are my notes:* Room Size: Some of the rooms are quite small, but asking for a room at the front of the building is a good hack—those rooms tend to be larger due to the shape of the building.* Breakfast Deal: If you book through certain websites, you'll get complimentary breakfast, which is definitely worth it. The breakfast spread was surprisingly good.* Old but updated: The hotel is definitely on the older side and could use a remodel. While the rooms themselves are updated and comfortable, the hallways have that kind of worn, dated vibe.* IMPORTANT: There’s no air-conditioning! I would not stay here in the warmer months.* Location: It’s close to the tube and the Elizabeth line, making it super convenient to get around. Plus, you can easily walk to the Tower of London and Tower Bridge.Overall, your experience at Travelodge London Central City Road may vary, but it’s a decent budget-friendly option.

The rooms all have windows completely blocked up for building work. There is no natural light or ventilation. The rooms are consequently hot and dark they are very depressing. We booked a super room is was anything but.  …

The team was very helpful and accommodated an early check-in for my family. We called a week before, and they promised to try their best, which they did. Excellent service made our stay even smoother! The hotel is very close to old street station and Moorgate station so easy access to sightseeing sites in London

Our stay at this hotel was extremely disappointing. The room we stayed in (132) had a severe bed bug infestation, and both my wife and I left covered in bites. I’m talking 20+ bites each, across our backs, necks, arms, and legs. I’m posting pictures so you can see what you might expect after a night here.As if that wasn’t enough, the windows couldn’t be opened due to construction work on the facade, making the room feel stuffy. There was also no bath mat, leaving the bathroom floor soaked after every shower. The provided shower gel was so diluted that it was barely usable.While the staff were helpful and the location is great, the hotel charges far too much for what it delivers, even for a budget hotel. I know better than to expect much from Travelodge, but this was a disaster beyond my wildest dreams. The infestation alone is enough reason to never stay here again. I cannot recommend this place to anyone. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.

Proper 3 star and no more. Wifi is only free for 30 minutes! No smart TV, which is so basic these days, an expectation. The room did provide a comfy bed, writing desk and clean if basic bathroom. Service was friendly and helpful. So from that point of view, it's a 3 star. Just don't expect any frills!

As a regular guest at this hotel (stay every two weeks) I always request a room on the 7th floor, and the hotel never disappoints. They always accommodate my request, which leads me to returning again. Any issues I come across team handles them in friendly and polite manner

Ok, I stayed in room 133, it's a family room so a little tight for space but only really expect a clean bed and somewhere to shower at these prices. I did not have any food but it looked ok. Location is good with easy access to tube stations. Cheap and cheerful, work was going on with scaffolding when I stayed and no mention when I booked, so check if you don't like being woke up at 0800 by workmen.
