Clean rooms and bathrooms well cleaned and modern.

Sotiris 8.0

The rooms look recently renovated, very modern, comfortable bed an pillows. The bathroom is very good, even the one with a bathtub had a rain shower and a shower head. Very efficient housekeeping , cleaned everyday and the coffee drawer was filled daily. The location is excellent, just 2 mins walk from Earl's Court Metro station 5picadilly Line which goes to both Heathrow Airport and St. Pancras International train station). Breakfast was decent with many choices.

Peter 9.0

Pillows were very hard

Alan 9.0

The location of the property was fantastic, only a 2 minute walk to Earl’s Court tube station having access to the Piccadilly and District and Hammersmith and City lines means you can get anywhere easily. Really close to some local shops and a few bars too. We did not have breakfast in the hotel as it was not included in our room rate but it looked lovely. The staff were incredibly helpful and will store your bags for you if you arrive early. The reception is also 24 hours which is great as we had to check out at 4am for our flight home. They also booked us a taxi for that morning.

Sf 8.0

The staff were so friendly and helpful. The room was nice and clean too with air conditioning which was great. I also really liked that everything you needed eg control etc were already at hand by the bedside, including USB chargers which was a great bonus.
