Amazing stay
Very nice experience. Staff is very friendly and helpful. In the first day remembered exactly what we had for breakfast, seems like no big deal. But it’s attention to detail, and the fact they took the time to remember the things we liked means something they do care about their guests. Making us comfortable and feel welcomed.

Avoid
Unpleasant place to stay- next to the one of the busiest roads in London and no air conditioning so when it’s warm and you open the window, the noise is really bad. At the time of my stay loft was broken, staircase is narrow and stairs steep- not great if you need to carry heavy luggage to the top floor. Very poor water pressure in the bathroom, so low that when anyone on the lower floors open the tap there is no water coming out from the tap. Complementary breakfast was a joke- piece of something pink ( probably some sort of ham) egg and toast. Rude staff- when asked about the lift, I was told “ broken but you look sporty, you will make it”.

Reception lady was very helpful and friendly. Facilities is quite old from rusty shower head, crumbling door paints, dirty looking carpets, and to make mattwra worse, a non-functioning lift! So you had to carry your heavy luggage up and down the stairs. Was told it only happened day before (i asked why we were not informed during booking) but i kinda doubted it as I was there for 4 days and sign of anyone coming to check/service it. Terrible breakfast serving instant coffee alongside toast, butter and ham. I'd rather pay a decent breakfast outside.

This was a nice property. The breakfast was good and staff was attentive. They make you leave your room key every time you leave the hotel and ask for a deposit for the tv remote which made us feel like theft might be a problem in the area but we didn't have any problems. The room has a fan which is good and our first floor room had a window which we could open for cross breeze. There is no air and it was very hot while we were there which could be a problem for others but overall it was a nice place.

Cheap, tired, but worth what you pay.
Good points: The staff are super friendly and helpful. Location is amazing. Is a very good price. Easy to find. Car parking is very safe. Bad points: Hotel is a bit tired. Continental Breakfast is very basic, which was served as it comes with no choice. But overall, worth the money you pay when you look around at all other local hotels.

Amazing location and nice breakfast thrown in :)
Amazing location, and breakfast is good and a great start to the day. Staff are super helpful and kind. Room was super basic, a little musty (old, old carpets), and small, but it’s an affordable place in a great location for you to lay your head down. 3 mins to the Earl’s Court tube station— awesome! It’s run down and cramped, but we would stay here again because it’s all we needed at an excellent price and would stay there again for sure :)

Staff were all so helpful and friendly. I have no complaints on that front at all, they were great. Location was also perfect, and the price wasn’t high. The hotel has seen better days though. My room had signs of leaking water in the upper corners of the room and the shower was pretty bad, as was some kind of mechanical squealing that thankfully stopped sometime around 10pm and started up again 7ish. But it was clean enough and the bed was comfortable.

We just needed a room to get our head down between 2 very busy sightseeing days. Hotel Oliver is perfect for that. Yes it has age related marks from peoples suitcases and the odd stain on the ceiling from a past leak but, it’s clean and tidy in general. Listen, if you’re looking for a luxurious and perfect place to enjoy your time at, then you really need to considerably up your budget as this is just a clean roof over your head for the night. Breakfast was filling and the staff friendly. Amazing location for west London so will most definitely be back when visiting this part of London 👍

They make you leave your room key at reception when you leave, which does not make me feel safe. There was what looks like bodily fluid stains on the bedding. Overall rundown and definitely not what I expected for a hotel rated “good” on Expedia.
