Average

Its a comfortable hotel room, with access to WiFi which is good for this price range in London. I needed to be coose to Barbicans metro station, so the primary reason for choosing was that. Good size room for London standards, I must admit that. Besides that, its not an area I would stay in for pleasure.

Nice

This hotel was perfect for my long weekend in London. It was clean and quiet. Also very close to the tube. I was in town to attend South Pacific at the Barbican and this was the perfect location. The room doesn't have daily maid service which was actually very nice- no one knocking on the door at 7am or vacuuming in the hall while you are trying to sleep. The room is like a mini apartment. You have a great kitchen area so if you want to stock the fridge or save a little money by preparing your own breakfast it's easily done. I enjoyed my stay very much.

Sightseeing tip: Short walk from hotel

The Musuem of London is about a 5 min. walk from the hotel. It's free and has tons of interesting exhibits about London from the beginning until today. I enjoyed my visit very much.

Great value for money

It is home away from home,- clean, modern rooms, with small kitchenette and free internet in the room. Traditional pub is just across the street and metro station is within 2 min walking distance. Great for a single person or a couple. One thing was a bid aukward is a queen-size sofabed vs bed, which required folding in order to have space to move around the room

Citadines Barbican London

The hotel was very nice. While it was a Hotel, the rooms were more of an efficiency style apartment than a hotel room. It was smaller than what is customary in the US but it was more than adequate for a single traveler. The staff was always friendly and very helpful. Maid service was weekly or upon request. For me the location was perfect. A little out of the way to keep the price down but close enough to everything else to be convenient.

Budget Room inthe center of London

I liked the hotel even with the small room. The fold out bed was surprisingly comfortable. I was dismayed when they said that they only cleaned the room once a week. Even with that knowledge, I would return .. and plan accordingly.

Know the tube and bus routes so that it is easy to return if the weather is inclement.
