Boston Court Hotel

I was walking around Marylebone around 11pm, looking to book the second part of my London stay. After walking around Edgeware, I realized I didn't want to stay at the Comfort Inn, so I rang Boston Court's bell. The dude answered and he offered the vacancies at the fair rate. I had a good feeling about him, didn't bother to check about what the rooms looked like. Days later when I checked in, to my delight, the room was exactly what I was expecting, barebones and simple. There was even a shower in the room. The shared bathroom is just a walk up from the room and is delightfully clean and fragrant, not what you would typically expect from a shared bathroom. Muhammed, one of the desk dudes, who introduced himself as "Muhammad Ali" (hee hee) was real chill. I had to check out early, and just dropped the key into the mailbox. At first, I was hesitant to book when I paid because OYO wasn't accepting the reservation which means I didn't have an email confirmation (they were discounting it a bit and OYO's system wasn't processing it), but Muhammed simply wrote my reservation on the credit card receipt, and had my reservation written down when I checked in days later. For the price, I was paying for location location location - turns out, Boston Court Hotel was the simplicity I was looking for. This will be my goto in Marylebone. Sometimes in life, have trust in humanity and you will be rewarded. Thanks Boston Court Hotel!

This is a great budget hotel; I have stayed there twice now and due to stay twice more this year at least. It's exactly what I want for quick trips to London in walking distance to my office, and it's a gorgeous location overall. It's on a quiet street and I was pleasantly surprised to get a good night's sleep in central London. The rest of the street has some buildings with beautiful architecture and I felt fine as a woman alone at night with a rucksack coming from Marble Arch tube. The staff I've dealt with have all been nice, and organised. Yes the rooms were decorated some decades ago, but this doesn’t bother me and it's reflected in the price. It's clean, and you can get a room with an en-suite. There is a kettle with tea and milk. No breakfast option at the hotel but there are cafés nearby so when I stay overnight I check out in the morning and have breakfast on the way to work.
