The Portland Hotel Review
Around the corner from leafy Russell Square and an easy walk to the British Museum and Covent Garden, the Portland offers spacious and comfortable bedrooms, with large bathrooms, seating areas, and kitchenettes. It's among several hotels on the same street that are owned by the Grange Hotels chain; this means that you might book here and actually end up staying in another hotel, and while the quality is comparable, not all amenities are the same—be clear with your requirements when you book.
