Hi, need some opinion from Londoners , or anyone who's traveled to London before. Below is a list of affordable hotels, and I am wondering which is the best. Maybe some of you have heard of it, or even stayed there before. So I would really appreciate to get real feedback (instead of only the good stuff written on their websites), in terms of quality, service, convenience and whether if it's haunted (gasp!!) cos some was built in the 19th century. ; )
Thanks.
1) Mina House - Paddington District
2) The Dolphin - Norfolkf Square
3) Lords - Leinster Square
4) Rose Court - Talbort Square
5) Prince William - Gloucester Terrace

1. Mina House has 27 rooms and is rated 3/5. So not bad.
2. The Dolphin. Could not find any reviews of it.
3. Lords has 67 rooms and is rated 3/5 too. So also not bad.
4. Rose Court has 43 rooms and is rated 2.5/5. So I would prefer Mina House and Lords over this one.
5. Prince William has 41 rooms and is rated 2.5/5 too. So I would not recommend it too.
Mina House and Lords are both fine, but I would recommend Lords.

We were just in London for a few days and we stayed at the Thistle Charring Cross. Thistle is a London Hotel chain. The hotel was great, very convenient to walk to Westminister Abbey, and even Buckingham Palace. It is right at a Tube station and bus stops are also right in front of it. There are many restaurants within a couple blocks.
I have not heard of any of the hotels you mention, but I do recommend the Charring Cross. We found it by searching the London site below.

I've not stayed at the hotels that you have listed. So, here are some links to reviews at Trip Advisor. I find it to be one of the most extensive and accurate sites for reviews. Just be sure to use your own judgement, each person will be different and have a different experience.
Here you go:

It seems that Mina House has the best reviews.
I hope this helps!
