Excellent staff at the front desk. Always helpful and knowledgeable. We needed a taxi to Heathrow and they booked us a private driver who arrived exactly on time. The hotel is on a quiet and safe residential street but there are restaurants, bakeries, shopping and the Earls Court tube station with in 2 blocks. Great location. I would stay there again.

The room was really disappointing. I booked a Deluxe Double room based on images on here but it looked nothing like it, & needed blinds/curtains to stay shut for privacy as it was right by parking spaces. As a solo travelling woman it was offputting to be in a basement/ground floor flat, but mostly it's just irritating to book a room that's shown to be lovely, bright and looked worth paying more for, and being so disappointed. I appreciate not all rooms will look identical but the basement deluxe double room is so different that it feels like false advertising. Staff and lobby area were good & the local area felt safe but based on the room difference vs booking made, and it having a shower that didn't drain + dirty wine glasses too, I wouldn't recommend.

Staff pleasant and great location. However, it is poor value for the price. Room L1, a deluxe double with an outdoor patio, had major construction that butted right up against and rose for stories above patio wall. Scaffolding and full crew starting at 8:30am. Courtesy bottle of wine was nice. But, There were no wash clothes, q-tips or shower cap. No bottle of water. Missing basic amenities expected for (inc taxes) $422 USD a night- without breakfast. Kitchenette is a closet with a small fridge, electric kettle, coffee maker that you find in any standard hotel room. Only bonus was small microwave. Shop around. Location is lovely and there are many hotels in the neighborhood. This simply isn’t a $400 hotel room.

The hotel was very quiet and the bed was comfortable. The pillows were too flat but the sheets were of excellent quality. The room was very small and the narrow halls and staircases made it difficult to carry luggage.

we love the convenient location and the nice and quite neighbourhood. The room is small for a standard double room making unpacking and packing quite a struggle. Staff is friendly and attentive though a bit strict for the check in time, we arrived two hours earlier and was declined for getting a room.

Great location as very central and close to transit. Rooms were pretty big. The service from the team was fabulous, all very helpful and pleasant. I would definitely go back to this location in a heartbeat. Wish I could remember the names of all the front desk team, but they were all so fabulous!!
