This street and hotel is undergoing construction so it was quite noisy. We booked one night and I did eventually sleep fine although the walls were thin and I could hear people above and below me with their toilet flushes and showers. My WiFi did not function at all and there was no television service despite being advertised that both would be available. We did ask the front desk and were told that their antennas were not working so we would not have reception. The next morning upon checking out, the reception desk acted surprised at this. I also told reception that my bedside lamp bulb needed replacing as it did not work (I wanted to read since there was no TV). We also had an huge window in the bathroom (small one in the bedroom) that was a struggle to lock and I HAD to lock it because of all the scaffolding outside the window. Plus, taking a shower in front of that big (albeit tempered) glass made me feel like I was in a fishbowl. All sheets and towels were clean and the staff was pleasant. The hotel carpeting really needs to be removed (I don’t know why hotels insist on carpeting. It’s easily stained and for allergies, it’s not ideal) and the big stain on the reception couch should have been my warning. No offer of compensation was given but I will email the hotel directly about it as the reception may not have been permitted to do that. At this moment, I would not recommend staying here despite it’s super location to the Earls Court tube station.
Room in basement with fake window. No fresh air. Lamp not working by bedroom door. Couldn’t see controls for air conditioning. Air conditioning vent dirty with build up of dust etc. Bathroom OK good shower. Overall disappointing with the room and general ambience of hotel. Staff ok but not particularly engaging
The stay was was ok, i think the room was small, i did not book the smallest room. The bed was not in best condition it had a big dip in the middle of the mattress also for what you pay some complementary water would be nice in the fridge, ive stayed at budget hotels with coffee machines and drinks topped up every day. This was very basic. All in all it was ok. But i think you can find a cheaper option for about the same service. We paid for the breakfast which in turn was a 4/10 the breakfast was cooked but not very good quality.
Arrived early and allowed to check in which was helpful after a long travel. Was informed of an ‘upgrade we had been given’ for a double room but when we were allocated our room on floor 3 the bed was just 2 singles pushed together! Apart from that hotel was lovely, breakfast was nice and check out at 11 was helpful:-)
A bit run down. Our room was in a basement area, but we had a window out to a carpark. The corridors were wildly narrow. Absolutely awful gym. Weird hole in the wall under the stairs covered with just some planks of wood. On the upside, not far from Earls Court station.
