Very Good

It's an older hotel, but the staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is great and the room was a good size. Location is brilliant for arriving by Tube and for visiting Kew Gardens. Dinner was also very tasty and good value.

Clean modern room. Very comfy bed and pillows. A lovely stay.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was very nice- particularly breakfast which was freshly cooked. The room was a bit tired but clean and the shower was very nice. It was quiet and in a really good location to visit Kew Gardens which were an easy 10 minute walk away. I felt the stay was very good value for money.

Very friendly staff, lovely pub with games to play !!
We stayed at several hotels in England and this was one of our favorites. It didn’t have an elevator but the young man (I wish I knew his name) was SO helpful, carrying our bags upstairs for us, answering questions. We were able to keep our luggage there the day we checked out while we went downtown (and the young man carried them up to and from the third floor for us!). The food at the restaurant was good and the staff very friendly. It was close to the train station which was convenient.
Slightly convenient location but rooms are definitely portrayed very different in the photos than reality. No good air flow, old fans provided that barely put out a puff of air, bathroom was musty and everything seemed worn down. The best was hard as a rock. Plenty of other nearby choices for stays that are actually cheaper/just as convenient.
Great location, helpful staff. However when we arrived it was closed for a private function (wedding that evening) and we couldn’t find anyone to let us in. Solved in the end of course. A bit surprised by how many steps we had to climb to get to our room.
Staff were lovely and couldn’t do more to help. Food and pub downstairs fantastic. Delicious meal and fab breakfast in the morning.
Was quite disappointed in the quality of the room. Paint and wallpaper peeling from the ceiling. Tv only had basic channels. The bathroom had a lot of black mould in the bath which for a 4 star hotel I was very disappointed in.
Room was clean and spacious. Bathroom could do with a little tlc and water temperature in shower wasn’t great.
Breakfast and service was excellent and overall feel is welcoming.
Love this hotel. The rooms are spacious, the staff are amazing and the food is great! Thank you Joe, you’re a star!
We’ll be back!

We like to stay in properties that reflect the ambience of the country we are in. This hotel was once a home in this neighborhood close to the center of town. Our room was ready for us and clean. The friendly staff was helpful and answered our questions patiently. They also helped us with our luggage. The bar which I’d call a pub served all meals. We had no complaints.

The room was clean. Spacious enough, Nice amenities. Decent restaurant downstairs. If you order fried eggs for breakfast, ask the waiter to tell the chef to use real butter to fry the eggs.
I really enjoyed staying here.
The room was big, the bed was so comfortable.
1 minute from Kew Gardens tube, fabulous location.
I would stay here again definitely.
The bathroom was great( if your a larger person, the bathroom might be a bit of a struggle)
There is a coffee machine, but coffee sachets in the room would be appreciated.
In summary great hotel, comfy bed, great location, quiet and friendly staff.
Just stairs up to room ( so if you have trouble walking up stairs, maybe not for you)
The room has a bit of wear and tear but on the whole , great value for money 😀
Where to start, it was like an episode of Fawlty Towers…
Concrete pillows, no hotel staff to talk to, no air con or suitable fans for the room, no cold water apart from out of the bathroom sink, no working tv, plugs on the opposite side of the room so you had to plug your phone in by the door, mouldy and dated bathroom, dated decor throughout.
This hotel only had location on its side but this did not make up for the shocking experience. I would never come back nor would I recommend to anyone!!!

Great location for the rugby. Rooms were clean, tidy, and warm and bathrooms had decent showers and hot water. The bar and restaurant are great and very reasonable priced. Will be using again
Thanks
Comfortable bed, spacious room, the room was cool and drafty as they had a humidifier in the room which had gaps as it reached outside the room via the window which was odd. Staff are very nice, food was hot and tasty in the bar/ restaurant.
