Great location, close to the underground and walking distance to Kensington Palace, Hyde Park and Nature museum. It was clean. Good for a family, Has the basics. Hairdryer in the room didn’t work. Dinner was ok, it was convenient but not fantastic. I would recommend staying there as it met our basic needs.

I have stayed in several Premier Inn about 15 years ago. What struck me then was how clean, modern and spacious the rooms were (for being in London). That was obviously a long time ago as none of that is applicable here. The facility is old and run down. Bathroom smells of mold and room is very bare bones. The location is good and if you get a room over the walkway, through a winding maze of corridors and two elevators, it is surprisingly quiet. Staff is very friendly and helpful and shower has good water pressure. But we will not stay again for this price.

First, the staff were very kind to me and my family. The room was comfortable, spacious and warm. The location was awesome! It’s very close to earls court station, which has 3 lines to follow, so, very central.

Our stay was wonderful. Clean room, friendly staff and great breakfast. Only complaint is that the walls are thin. Luckily only had rude neighbors one night. Highly recommend this budget hotel!

A lovely hotel in a good area of London, close to the metro/tube and a lot of nice restaurants and shops in the Earl court area. One downside is the room was a bit cold the first day. Would love to come back one day.

My stay was for 7 nights. First the positives: 3-minute walk to Earls Court tube station for the District and Piccadilly lines, so easy to get to and from Heathrow and elsewhere; relatively modern building (mid 1960s?), so there are elevators (which many of the small 3-story hotels in Earls Court lack if you must stay in that area); spacious room that was plenty for one person; convenience/fast food dining up and down the tube station area and Sainsbury's a few blocks away. A few negatives: don't expect any room amenities (e.g., no room safe, luggage rack, ice machine on any floor (must go downstairs to bar/restaurant to request), or even minor items like box of tissues in bathroom, clock on nightstand, very limited TV channel options-mostly BBC and ITV). The positives outweigh the negatives, so would stay here again assuming acceptable rates.

Staff were very nice and attentive. Breakfast always cooked fresh. Location is very connected. Only negative is if your room is on the annex, it is a maze getting to it.

The Bed was comfortable. The front desk people were very nice and helpful. I did not like that there was no dressers or draws to put your clothes away and no extra hangers were available for any rooms

The location was convenient for our needs, very close to the Earl‘ Court station but also not right by it, so it is calm in the immediate area of the hotel. Extremely helpful staff, at every step: check in, upgrading internet, luggage storage… They were very friendly and very solution oriented. The hotel and the rooms feel a bit dated - not a problem but set your expectations accordingly. The aircon is a bit loud, but we could sleep through it.
Overall, we were happy with our stay thanks to the friendly staff and the location. Given the price point, it would be great if the rooms get a bit of modernization.

Pros: good location, AC works well which was a blessing during one of the hottest weeks recorded in London , sound insulation works well (quite rooms in spite of being right on the railway path), comfortable beds.
Cons: needs serious deep cleaning , the stench hits you as soon as you step into the corridor to the elevator and into the rooms. Poorly maintained hotel overall and poor cleaning. Toilets have black fungus near wet areas, the bedroom had a living spider web above the TV wall cladding. The house keeping rules and system overall is poor: must order only during the day of the request , and when it takes place the room isn’t actually cleaned, they just replace the towels and throw away the garbage.. floors aren’t cleaned, shower area isn’t cleaned, surfaces aren’t cleaned. The room simply stays dirty and interested as long as you stay. They don’t allow changing bedsheets even if they are dirty, except after the 6th day of stay..
lack of safe box in the rooms is cumbersome and inconvenient. Although the hotels allows storing personal belongings in the reception/admin safe room. No electric plugs near the bed .. so you have to charge your phone on the desk only through that single plug. I hope the hotel takes serious measures to improve its quality and cleanliness.

Overall stay was ok , except the day we were checked in , the person who checked us was not very helpful. I requested for internet service she told us it’s free . I was not able to get that i requested again because i was getting the page again and again that I have to pay. She stated are you from India , instead of helping me.
After few mins she helped us finally , when I guess can be done earlier.
When we were having breakfast on Saturday the lady was very nice she told me she is New and getting training , she was able to provide us GF bread as one of our family member was allergic, I was really thank ful for that.

The staff were attentive and helpful and clearly work very hard. Very impressive to see in London. The food was excellent and the hotel is a short walk from Earls Court tube station.
