Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The rooms are extremely small, my wife and I with two suitcases did not fit in the room and the bed is not double, but rather full size, everything in the room is difficult to do due to its small space, I would not recommend it to anyone, it is even small for a single person.

They don’t take Amex, or cash. Breakfast doesn’t start till 7 so if you are on an early flight that’s a problem. The hotel is in easy walk of Russel Square tube which is really nice. It’s also a place where the Beatles stayed.

Aging hotel with basic service but value for money
The President gives the impression of once being a luxury hotel but it has clearly seen better days. That does mean that the rooms are value for money. Their check-in procedures need an overhaul. It's a bit silly to have booked a hotel through hotels.com and provided all the necessary information and then be given a paper form to fill out by hand during check-in. This makes the whole process slow and results in long queues at check-in. I tried to check in a little before noon. They had no rooms available, which is understandable. They seem to have had a lot of people arriving before check-in time. Hotels that have this problem really need to set up some place with some privacy for people that need to perhaps change clothes or transfer things between bags before leaving their luggage.

My first impression of the hotel was not a good one because of the check in experience I had. I got to the hotel at 9am because of my early flight and honestly i was quite exhausted cos of the long flight from Australia. I went to the reception with my passport presented and said that I'd like to check in, however, the male staff member responded, 'You would like to check in but it's too early for that, check in time is 2pm.' He subsequently pushed the passport back towards me and honestly I was shocked by the response. Maybe the process is different from what we do in Australia I guess. No checking in the system at all nor offer kindly if they would like their luggage stored somewhere and I had to ask for it myself and after handing my suitcase to another staff I got this sort of keycard back without a word or explanation. As a former front office manager, I found this all very appaling. After killing 5 hours wandering around in London, I came back to check in. This time the receptionist was much nicer and welcoming. She gave me directions on the lifts and restaurant and everything was explained succinctly The room was sufficient for a solo traveller. Apart from the heating being way too much for me, I couldnt fault anything else. The highlight of my stay is breakfast at the restaurant. The team was excellent and i would like to give my special thanks to Esnico, Fabiola and Adriana. They made me feel so welcome and turned my impression of the hotel around. THANK YOU!!!!!!

Great location at reasonable prices
Only 3 minutes away from the Russell Square Tube station, President Hotel is a nice hotel. Centrally situated, it offers a comfortable stay at decent rates. The water station in the lobby was convenient as well as the umbrella rental (2 £ for 48 hours). The Internet speeds are very fast. There were minor issues, but nothing that was a deal breaker. i.e. the shower was a bit cramped and I had to avoid hitting the hand rail.
