If you’re looking for a nice small hotel where you can sleep for a few nights and feel safe and take care of that is the hotel for you. We’ve been there for three nights and I would say it was a great choice!

Location, friendly, caring, kind staff.

Bilochenko 9.0

The room was small but had everything I needed. I didn’t really like that my room was on the basement level — the window could be opened for fresh air, but I didn’t feel comfortable leaving it open at night. Great location with public transport nearby. The staff was very nice and helpful. Breakfast was simple and without hot options, but fine to start the day.

Lovely Little best western hotel in West Kensington 3 mins walk from west Kensington tube, quiet location comfortable but compact, even the room without a window was ok (as it was in the basement ) staff very pleasant and helpful, spot on really for a single female guest I didn’t have breakfast but it looked ok and was very popular with other travellers Really handy for Hammersmith Apollo Only five mins from broadway.

The location of the hotel exceeded our expectations. Easy access to bus stops #9 and #28 and metro stations. Beautiful area. Safe. Quiet. Lots of options for all tastes nearby: pubs, Turkish cafes, pizzerias, breakfast cafes. Several Tesco and Sainsbury's stores. The hotel management is very helpfull, especially Vijay.
