Hotel Oliver was a life saver as my flight had been cancelled and I needed a room which they has available for my one night stay. I know we can’t be choosy under quick circumstances I was a little take aback at how old and run down the room looked. It was rather dated reminded of something rented on a budget youth hostel in the 80s. It’s such a beautiful location why not give it a face lift.

I use a light mobility scooter and due to the area being of mostly older buildings, i understood i would need to drag it up the outer stairs to the hotel entrance, and i did email the property after booking to tell them this, and also that it was ok as they had a lift internally. When i got there, i was assisted by a lovely young lady snd an older lady who helped me but it was quickly established that the lift was not big enough for even a small scooter that is the same width as wheelchair and not much longer either, so the lady switched it for a downstairs room instead. My initial impression 9f the room was compact but very high ceiling and lovely long curtains. The bathroom was average and had a bath, with a shower in it controlled by a mixer handle,but it was clean. I went out for a while and while getting ready to go out for the evening, i decided to have a bath. I realised there was no plug there for the bath, so i went to the reception area where there was another lady and asked her for a plug, she had not got a clu3 what i was asking for at first and then rummaged through a drawer , and just said, no plug, while shrugging her shoulders. I resigned to have a shower but found to have no hot water, so back to reception again, and the lady came and turned it on, and nonchalantly said, they hadnt switched the labl3s on the taps , and again shrugged her shoulders at me

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Had no time for breakfast so can’t judge on that but was told it’s a continental one. Although it was a single bedroom, the bathroom was tiny. When I sat on the bog my knees touched the wall. A dwarf would have difficulty in that bathroom. Also there was no hot water from the sink of which took minutes to go luke warm at best. As for the shower that also took minutes to warm up. £35 for parking a car overnight which had to be paid in cash was way way too expensive. Not worth the money for the single room or parking. Very disappointed.

Staff: were excellent, very friendly & welcoming Hotel: looking old, carpet in main areas & stairs was threadbare. Reception manned 24/7 Tea & Coffee is available 24/7 Room: Small, the entrance into the bathroom was very narrow, so narrow that I had to enter side ways as I couldn’t walk in forwards. Location: 5 minutes walk to Earls Court Tube, Bars, Restaurants & Shops. The Bed was very comfortable.

Good for the price

The photos are a fair representation of the rooms. They’re small but the bathroom was surprising big and in good condition. Good shape for a London hotel at the budget end of the spectrum. Towels only changed after three nights. Breakfast was a hard boiled egg, cereal and toast. Juice, tea and coffee were also provided. Not super close to the tube but walking distance. I’d stay here again!

Location great for nearby attractions and getting around London easily. Staff very friendly and helpful. Everything clean. Breakfast area bright and comfortable. Also space to have a hot drink anytime or eat anything bought locally. This is helpful as room was very small. Small beds small space small clothes storage for 2 1 towel each 1 chair for 2 small window small soap with no shower gel. Good sized shower room but no window or fan so bit stuffy. There is a fan but so hot even in September hard to sleep. Little air came through small window. You could keep fan on but noise keeps awake. Am used to road noise so not too bad. Nice to get a breakfast but it is the same every day. Cooked food is the hard boiled egg. Quality is very basic so don’t expect too much. Overall good but 3 nights enough. Bearing in mind above it was an ok stay and staff and cleanliness very good. I think everything tends to be small for price in London and this was at cheaper end so not bad value in comparison with others stayed in. Don’t often get a breakfast included and although basic was plentiful. Thanks for stay
