Guest Reviews

stephen from Preston United Kingdom;GB gave California Hotel a rating of Good

"Be prepared for interesting artwork. This is a basic hotel that is reasonably priced don't expect luxuries, it is a little dated but we found it clean and comfortable for an overnight stay. The stairs are numerous and quite steep and tiring if you have a party of children to supervise! Little things like lack of basin plugs and extra pillows was irritating."

"It was central to the amenities we wanted, reasonably priced, supplied full english breakfast, was clean, had street parking outside, staff were helpful and children were readily accepted."

"Availability of extra pillows and plugs in all hand basins would have been appreciated."

"The stay was excellent, my wife hasn't been well for over a year and we were over to attend the clinic at the Maudsley Hospital and have a few days break, the hotel was conveniently sittuated for the trains and tubes which made life easier."

"The accomodation was clean the breakfast was great and it was nice and close to the stations."

"we asked for a double but were given a room with a double and 2 single beds which made the room very cramped."
