Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located near Earls Court Tube station, making it easy to access. The rooms are on the smaller side but are still cozy, though they could use better ventilation as they tend to get very hot. The service was friendly and helpful, although there were some extra charges for services like bag storage. The dining options were basic, and the breakfast service ended quite early. Overall, a decent stay for a short visit.
I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. The location is fantastic, near the underground and surrounded by restaurants and supermarkets. The room I stayed in was on the -1 floor, providing easy access from outside, although it wasn't what we originally booked - it was the only room with 4 beds instead of 2, which worked out well for our family trip. The service was excellent, friendly, and quick to address any concerns. While the dining options were decent, it would have been nice to see more variety. Overall, it was a good stay, despite a late-night interruption by another couple entering our room at 3 am.
Despite some issues with the rooms and dining experience, the hotel is conveniently located near the tube station with many dining options around. The service was pleasant, and the location is ideal for travelers. However, the room fell short of expectations with a foul smell and lack of space.
My stay at the hotel was quite mixed. The location was superb, being very close to the tube station and offering convenient access to transportation and amenities. However, the room I stayed in had some issues, being small and uncomfortably hot. The service was friendly and helpful, allowing me to check in early, which was a plus. The dining experience was basic and lacked variety. Overall, the value for money was reasonable.
The hotel is conveniently close to the tube station and offers a central location with access to various shops and restaurants. The rooms are a bit small, especially with larger luggage, and have inconvenient layout with steep stairs. The service was friendly and helpful, although some oversight in room allocation occurred. The dining options were basic with limited choices. Overall, a good spot for touring London but needs improvements in room setup and dining selection.
