Located close to the high street and Earl’s Court train station. Lots of options for restaurants and fast food. Room was clean however very narrow and small. Bathroom door does not close fully. If staying here, ask for a room not on the lower ground level as you can hear the footsteps/any noise from floor above and loud noises from housekeeping starting their day in the morning (it’s impossible to sleep in, be prepared to be woken up early).

We like the hotel, the cleanliness and the bed. I love the lightning and fixtures. The noise outside the room can be loud during mornings. We wouldn’t mind vacuums but not loud voices. Overall, we enjoyed our stay with this hotel.

Great location around the corner from the Earl's Court Tube Station. Good and clean rooms. Lifts at hotel. Some stairs to get to the entrance. Hotel has a few different buildings right next to each other, so you may have to enter (via small set of stairs) to check in, and then go to other building to get to your room.
