By far Charring cross has been the worst hotel i have stayed in. The only good part about the hotel was the sofa's at the reception counter. Everything after that is only a downslide. The reception staff is dumb and the service staff very opportunistic. Room service is poor, and amenities inside the room are nil. They dont even have... More

You only use your rooms to sleep and put your luggage in it so why spend a lot of money on hotels when you can use that money for other purposes (trust me you'll find no trouble spending it). I always like to stay at this hotel and I gave it 4 stars only for the location and hospitality. Let... More

My experience in Charring Cross was pretty similar to the reviews below - average room, bad service, will score low on cleanliness and basic amenities. Probably the only thing that goes for this hotel is its location, and thats the beginning and end of it. You wont find anything more worth mentioning. Its better to stay awar from this, as... More

I had been here with family in 2004. The hotel is pretty reasonable. You an stay here if you're looking at the rates, but the services aren't too good. The room service takes time to attend to calls from your room. When we went, they were painting the hotel, so there was the smell of paint in the air, for... More

I got carried away by the location of the hotel and made my booking through a travel portal. Our nightmare began when we reached there.
