King Solomon Hotel

We had a family room which was tiny, the bed covers were dirty, the beds were two inches apart, the window didn't close, there was tea and coffee but no milk or kettle! There were tea stains up the wall and they were generally dirty and could do with a new lick of paint. You couldn't swing a hamster in the bathroom, the toilet seat was broken, the shower took ten minutes to warm up, there was no plug in the sink and the bathroom light didnt' work. The breakfast is best well avoided, the "continental" involved tuna and sweetcorn,... more

I agree with the last review - this place is the pits! The only good thing about it, was the location. Besides for that everything in the room was broken or old. This place is good for backpackers or students. Beyond that don't even think about it!

Advertised amenities not provided, e.g., no hairdryer, no functional TV or room safe, no bath. Lamp was hanging from wall. Towels not provided initially, had to walk three stories down and then up to get them - no elevator. Water temperature ranged alll over the place. No plug in sink. Junky furniture in room. Breakfast questionable (expect to eat somewhere else). Also, hotel demanded payment in advance in contravention of booking arrangements. Need to be very careful if you are a foreign visitor, because your credit card will... more

Stayed at the King Solomon Hotel for one night 25 September 2004. The hotel was supposedly being renovated, and we had a room on the top floor (no elevator). The room was shabbyand not particularly clean. The bathroom was decrepit, with no stopper in the sink, and a shower that did not drain. In the night we were treated to loud conversations outside the door between other guests - minimal sound-proofing. We did not have the breakfast. The location was convenient, but this did not compensate for the shortcomings of the hotel. The one... more

We booked a room here for business purposes for two nights through the internet where credit card details were taken. On trying to leave this morning (incidentally his room was likened to the broom closet) he was detained as they tried to get us to fax through a photocopy of our company's credit card saying they do not accept internet bookings. We offered to give the details again over the phone or fax through signed confirmation but refused to photocopy the credit card (is this legal). Having no joy with the hotel (our gentleman was... more

The beds uncomfortable, breakfast was best avoided. But its 5 minutes from the Subway, its in a nice area (lots of bakeries and shops), the staff were pleasant, and it suited our needs perfectly.

Stayed one night in the King Solomon, never again. Room poky, curtains falling to bits, shower disgusting. Corridors filthy, breakfast poor. Would not return

one of the most unpleasant hotels i have had the misfortune to stay in room was shabby curtains were untouchable,bedside light hanging of wall,shower room disgusting,carpet damp at side of bed complained about the light nothing done, we only stayed two nights out of three and god knows how we managed even that.
