Helpful staff, great location, very close to both Queen Square and Baker Street station. Comfortable, spotless room. Although no aircon in the rooms, there was a good large fan in the wardrobe which worked fine. Breakfast was delicious, although expensive (£17.50 on the door). It's as much as you can eat (definitely worth it, especially if you can get a deal when you book the room). I will definitely stay here again, and recommend it to anyone.

First time staying at The President and was really impressed. The staff were lovely, the room was clean and well equipped and the breakfast was excellent. The location was ideal for exploring London on foot, but there is a tube staton and bus nearby. The area around Russell Square is lovely, and benefits from being not in the middle of the tourist hub-but. I will definitely be staying here agin in the future.

Stayed here mainly for the location. The train station is only about a 2-minute walk away, which made everything really easy. The staff was friendly. Area felt safe and there are shops and places to eat nearby. Hotel was clean and fine for a short stay. Nothing fancy, but it did the job. Good option if you want to be right next to the station.
