Muswell Hill Guest House

A 2 star at best accommodation with below average breakfast and no real coffee served, only instant. Fresh brewed coffee with breakfast should be a no brainier. The rooms are clean and Internet is good but that's about it.

We stayed here for the third time recently, and again found the hotel to be excellent value for money. The room was a reasonable size, the beds comfortable, and everything was clean. The breakfast was spectacularly large and freshly cooked. A couple of minor quibbles: coffee was served from vacuum flasks, which meant that it was thoroughly stewed by the time we got to it; and here and there the building was fraying around the edges a little. However, the hotel is apparently about to close for renovations, which will no doubt remedy the latter issue. It's to be hoped that the refurbed hotel won't have higher prices though!

This was my second visit - the first being about 2 years ago and not particularly memorable - I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised! The hotel seems to be undergoing some improvements, there is a new manager, new staff, and comfortable new beds. The English breakfast (which I remember was the best thing about my previous stay) is still good. Still a bit of a way to go - there were some creaks in the night, but nothing major. Useful location.
