Situated in a good area just a short walk away from the train station, restaurants, and pharmacies. Felt safe staying here; however, I wished the bedroom had at least a phone to call reception in case of an emergency. Additionally, the bathroom, although clean, had an incredibly small sink that was hard to use without spilling water all over the floor. The staff, however, were all very helpful and kind.

It was amazing! We were greeted by two lovely ladies (I didn’t catch their names but they were on the desk around 8:00 on the friday evening) and they were amazing! The rooms were extremely comfortable and cozy, and located only a few mins away from the tube which was very ideal. The breakfast was lovely, the rooms were very clean and all the members of staff were very accommodating and kind. We will definitely be staying here again on our next trip back to London!! xxx

The room was very clean. Good location and walkable to shops and underground. My one and only issue was that there were no tea and coffee making facilities in the room. The only tea or coffee available was for purchase which would be OK but I like a lot of coffee!! The room was spacious and the provision of a desk and chair would be useful.

Every staff member at the hotel, without exception, made me feel welcomed, safe while attending me with respect, good humour, and professionalism. I can not say enough good things about ALL the front desk staff. They treated me as though I were a friend or an elderly uncle, navigating me through the tube strike, to the point of taking me down the front steps of the hotel to point me in the right direction. The chap responsible for breakfast was hospitable and kind. My room was exceptional value, clean and well appointed. I strongly recommend this hotel. To all the staff: THANK YOU and BLESS YOU!!

Staff is friendly and check in was fast and easy. We arrived at noon and they were able to check us in and give us a room. Water dispenser in lobby. You can buy a cup of coffee or tea and soda and pastry. Hotel is on a busy six lane street but you cannot hear the cars outside. We stayed in a double on -1. It had a sliver of a window. AC works fine. The room was extremely clean except for the wooden chair which I had to wipe down with soap and water because the seat was greasy. Only one usb port so I had to charge my phone using my portable battery pack so my husband could plug his phone in. The room is small and if you have more than 2 check-in luggage, 2 carry-on luggage and 2 personal items for 2 people, it will be tight by US standards but still doable for an overnight. Very close to Earl’s Court Underground station. Walk on Earl’s Court, cross the street when you get to West Cromwell and turn left.

Good location in close distance to Earls Court station. Room is cosy and just big enough, clean and good looking. A towel rack would be good if you want to be eco friendly but you cant hang them well to dry. Also, if booked through a platform…13£ breakfast, come on. Storing luggage was free last time but now 3£ per bag, which is simply money making and not OK
