Pillows were like bricks, though the bed was comfortable. The small shower area made it difficult not to get water all over the floor. The facility was shabby all around —tiles broken in the bathroom, radiator cover not well-affixed, etc. — but the staff were friendly and did help where they could (extra towels, sticking plaster). We felt safe and though it was far out of the main part of London, it was in an area with a choice of restaurants.

When I first booked, I thought that breakfast was included, and then we quickly received notification that there was no breakfast. Additionally, at the time we booked there was no option to cancel before hand. It’s called the Garden view however, we had no view of any garden. They stuck us in a basement with a view of a trash bin. There were bugs, and there was no ventilation. They gave us a fan that barely worked and when we asked for a better room or compensation, they refused.

Our first room was spacious, but half of the outlets did not work, the toilet did not flush correctly, the shower leaked all over the bathroom floor and did not turn off all the way, and the bathroom door did not close. However, after bringing it to the hotels attention they were able to move us rooms the following day, but they did put guests into the original room after we moved without fixing any of the issues.

Quiet, no frills hotel in nice location.

Good location, easy access to tube, quiet part of Earls Court. Room at back 28HL on half landing was more basic than room looking on to garden square on previous stay. Decor and furniture bit tired, shower pressure low but ensuite clean.

Small room comfortable

The room was fine and the bed was a double and comfortable. View out the window was nice. The evening desk service was poor. I asked for help using the tv and the person at the desk said he didn’t know anything about operating the tv. I asked another question a different evening ( can’t remember what it was now) but he responded the same way- he didn’t know about that’s. They seemed like basic things an employee should be able to help with.

The building is way outdated. There is no aircon. There was a fan but we need to ask them to replace it as it was broken. The room is too tight for 3 people. No amenities. The shower handle is broken. The hallway is too tight, it's only 1 person who can walk into it same with the super slow elevator that only fits 2 people at a time. The staff are rude, not very welcoming to guest. I will never stay in this hotel again.

Garden View Hotel Disappointing

The hotel was a major disappointment. Misleading posting on your website. Over priced broom closet rooms without AC. Promised inclusive breakfast -- PRE-PAID - did not exist. Would NOT recommend this hotel to anyone.

It was a good stay! We weren’t in the room a whole lot but the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was kept clean. The fan was very nice considering the hot weather and there was a decent amount of space.

Compact but clean

We stayed to attend Wimbledon so it’s in an ideal area near to Earl’s Court tube to get direct to Southfields. The room was basic, bed was up against a wall so I had difficulty getting in and out without climbing over my husband or shuffling down the bed!! Big step into bathroom which was compact, if using the sink had to be careful didn’t fall into the shower (which we did a couple of times) but overall it was just a base for our weekend and for the price we paid was ok though I probably would pay a bit more next time for a nicer room.

If you like moldy tiles, thread bare towels, and barred windows, this is your place. Take a look at our basement garden view. 😂 Also, don’t flush the toilet while someone is in the shower unless you want them to be scalded. It’s about equal to a motel 6.

We were travelling with two sets of friends, three different rooms. It seems we were fortunate to get Room 110 which had a nice balcony and window overlooking the park across the street. Our friends were not so lucky on the third floor with their rooms which were not good at all. Too bad really as the property location is excellent for walking to restaurants and the tube system to get around.
