The location was excellent for our needs and the bed was comfortable and clean BUT I booked the studio with Kitchener to enable us to buy and prepare own own meals and therefore save a lot of money on eating out. The room did indeed have a fridge, hob and microwave/ combi oven but there was quite literally no equipment. No chopping board, knives, pans, plates, bowls, cutlery or drinking glasses. Also a sink but no washing liquid sponge cloth or t towels to enable you to clean up. Surely they don’t expect customers to bring their own plates and saucepans. If I had known that nothing was provided I would not have booked We stayed 2 nights and on the 2nd day our bed was made but nothing else, not even our coffee cups were cleaned or replaced. Really extraordinary Some plates were provided when I requested them but I maintain that we were misled that this was a self catering unit

Great hotel

Excellent find. Used for Wimbledon. Uber £8 to the tennis. Small foyer area though you can buy beer/wine/coffee. Room compact with tea/coffee and a great shower. The only complaint - only one flat pillow each. Too tired to ask for another as I’m sure they would have provided. Staff very nice and helpful. Close to Tooting with bars/cafes etc..Will be back next year!

The room was a single accommodation but due to a double bed, was sold as a double room- just not enough space for 2 people. The aircon did not work (we reported this upon arrival and requested a fix, (or a minimum requirement of fans to cool the room). We returned to the room (4.5 hours later) and the aircon was still not working. The room was intolerable/uninhabitable due to heat- (temps for the 2 day stop were 30-34 c and the room reached 37 c). Nor effort was made to install fan(s) to cool the room. The ereceptioniisty had no record of our request and had not been left handover or a record made of the issue. After some debate with the receptionist, we were given an alternative room. I would not stay there again nor recommend the hotel. The room size is questionable. Staff unhelpful Issues ignored

The modern Pelican is on the grounds of the huge St George's hospital and is close to nothing else but a graveyard. It's a great location if you are a walker. The Pelican is regular hotel plus a large number of long term flats. There are no instruction for the guest laundry or in-room climate system. While the rooms are very nice, there isn't much unused floorspace. There was nowhere to open my suitcase.

Fantastic Budget Hotel

I don’t know why this hotel has such low ratings. I must admit, I was hesitant to book because of the bad reviews but because my booking was so last minute, I did not really have a choice. Here is my review: The Pros: - Everything was clean and tidy - Super quiet! Honestly, this was probably the quitest hotel I have stayed at. All the budget hotels like Z hotels, Ibis, Travelodge boast of soundproofing but I could always hear people CONSTANTLY! This was such a refreshing change. The road is quite noisy but once you close the windows, you can't hear a thing. - Mostly well-connected. It is a bit out of the way and takes around 40min to get to the centre of London but at this price, it's a steal! There are multiple bus stops nearby and the tube is a 15min walk away. - Room size is very generous. We stayed in the triple room and it had 3 single beds, a large single seater couch, a dressing table and chair and ample room to spare! - Comfy beds and sheets. We slept very well. The cons: - The carpet and couch could do with a deep clean. - The walls are a bit grubby. Could do with some new paint. - If I'm really nit-picking, the nearest shops and restaurants were about a 10min walk away so a bit far if you are feeling lazy. The hotel is not perfect, but for the cost, it was more than sufficient. More than I can say for many other hotels in London. Overall, my family and I had a wonderful stay and were more than happy. Fantastic value for money! We will definitely be back!

The rooms on the ground floor really need a deep clean - the carpets get vacuumed but look very dirty and stained- you don’t want to put your bare feet on them. Glass light shade very dusty. Gives a sense of lack of care. Facilities are not great - apparently you have to ask for a hairdryer at reception but they don’t tell you that when you check in. Fridge door upside down so handle near the floor. In one room toilet seat damaged needs replacing and kettle lid broken. Both items made of cheap plastic so not expensive to replace. Staff are nice.

A good hotel with a very nice room, however, when I was checking in, I was asked for photo ID which I didn't have. Had the hotel asked in advance. I should have been able to provide this. Very stressful after a tiring hot day..

Hospital visit

It’s a shame they didn’t have stairs as we were on the 1st floor and sometimes had to wait for the escalator when wr could have justed walked the stairs,The air con wasn’t working but as we only stayed 2nights we put up with it.The hotel is convenient for St George’s wich is why we choose it and expect Hospital staff to also use it.
