I stayed with my 9 yr old son so for us an over night stay was good but as there was shared toilets showers etc i dont think we would have stayed any longer, although staff did give us a room in a nice quiet spot, but for younger people a good place to stay, location was great near the underground, and easy to walk to a lot of attractions.

Breakfast was nice and of course location...design of the first floor was interesting.
Rooms really tiny.

The Generator was easy to find, the rooms were as you'd expect for the price, everything was exactly how I expected it to be, and the shower and toilet facilities were clean and easy to use
The rooms could have done with some air conditioning, as of a night time they were uncomfortably hot. There could be a little bit more variety on the Breakfast side of things.
- John
This hotel is well located in a great area which is very close to London Euston train station. The staff here provides good service and are very friendly. The rooms are clean and tidy with lockers for baggage.
All was ok.
- Ernest
We stayed at Generator for the second time and it was great value for money. The location is excellent and the vibes and decor are really cool. The rooms, although a bit basic, are clean and the mattresses are comfortable. The noise insulation is good, so you can get a good night's sleep. The hotel is close to the tube, which is convenient, and the bar and hangout area is a great place to socialize with friends. The checkout process was also very easy.
Can't recommend this hotel highly enough.
