Very nice room and well run hotel with friendly staff. The main downside was the bathroom with old fixtures and a sink faucet so close to the side that it flooded the countertop each time.

Nice location. But rooms had no heat and I got a terrible cold with cough. I had to ask for a portable heater. These issues should be know to people considering booking older hotels.

Practical Guide for Tavistock Hotel
The location of the hotel is great. This is a good hotel if u are traveling light for a few days since provide very little place for luggage or clothes. Our group had 2 people to a room. The bathroom counter space was less then i was expecting. my partner & i needed to store r bathroom stuff when we weren't in the bathroom getting ready for the day. The staff were very good about answering questions about hotel & the city of london especially @ ck-in desk about practical advise about getting to 'Tottenham' stadium to watch the Bears play. The hotel is in close proximity to 'hop-on/hop-off' transportation or 'tube'. There some really good restaurants in walking distance.x
