Our experience at this hotel was far from satisfactory. The room was extremely small, and everything inside was old and outdated. The bathtub drain overflowed every time we showered, and despite bringing this to the staff’s attention, nothing was done to resolve it. I also inquired about VIP perks and potential upgrades, but I was told no upgrades were available. It honestly felt like they didn’t even want to make an effort to accommodate the request. The hotel itself is quite old, and it shows in every aspect of the room. There was no help with luggage, no breakfast provided, and the only dining option was to order from an outside café. While they delivered the food to our room for free, the quality was terrible and not worth it. The only saving grace was the convenient location, but that alone isn’t enough to make up for the poor service and outdated facilities. I wouldn’t recommend staying here unless significant improvements are made.

Extremely comfortable king size bed ensuring a good nights sleep. Two minute walk to Earls Court tube, bars and restaurants. 15 minute walk to the museums and Royal Albert Hall. Room had added bonus of a fridge and microwave hidden behind wardrobe doors making it easy to self cater a little if staying for more than one night.

It was my second stay at this hotel and it was just as amazing. Staff is extremely attentive and welcoming. It’s close to the tube station, which is a great starting point for any destination. You’re away from the main part of the city, so you are able to decompress. Great pubs are also by the tube as well as fast food options. There’s also nearby grocery stores if preferred. This is my go to stay in London.

Tube station in less than 5 minutes walk distance. Many nice restaurants at the other side of the street. The hotel is in a peaceful neighborhood, 3 museums are in walkable distance. Staff are sweet and friendly. My room was small but very comfortable, clean , warm and cozy. Perfect for solo travel. My favorite place in London.
