I have been lucky with my room at this hotel many times but not this last time. One was very noisy - every time someone walked in the next door room my bed vibrated, another was mostly in the basement. The third one was fine but I won’t risk the hassle again. Great location for heathrow and central London.

After a poor start with the hotel giving us basement rooms with only a small sky-light the staff rectified the matter and we received lovely rooms on the first floor. This hotel has always been our favourite place to stay in London and we have in the past always had a great time. The location is so convenient to the tube at Earl's Court, restaurants and shops.

Wonderful breakfast with great service and staff. A shout out to Anjali, Shanel, Sharven, Richard and Henry who were very helpful and professional! We stayed there for five nights and found the location perfect with a number of nearby restaurants and a super close tube station. The rooms are well appointed. However the shower drain was not good and the shower floor design so flawed that the only way to avoid an overflow was to interrupt the shower every minute or two to allow the water to drain.
