The Hotel is in the center of the city, so easy to travel, but you still have to walk a bit to get to the underground. For me I had two lines that leaded to the two stations I needed to be and the the airport. There are many restaurants in earl's ct road, you have a large choice. But!....... More

Located in lovely Kensington just a couple of blocks from the Earls Court Tube Station, this hotel is the perfect place acess all the major London sights. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. There are several nearby good restaurants. Rooms are small.... More

I stayed 4 nights. I was very nice. Location is very good. Very close to the subway. Subway stop is very close to everywhere. Quit neighborhood. The elevator wasn't working so staying at the top level is a hustle to climb all the stairs (I recommend not to forget anything when you're up to leave the hotel.) Breakfast was included... More

I stayed here for three nights with my partner in a double room. It is by far the smallest hotel room I've ever stayed in (including Paris) but if you just want a basic hotel to use as somewhere to sleep and shower you will be fine here. Bonuses were that it is on the same underground line as Heathrow,... More

I stayed in a very small single room, but I was only in and out of the room to sleep/shower. It had a very small shower, and if you are a larger person, this room may not be for you. I have travelled Europe and know that rooms can be small, but this one was the width of two single... More

The Garden View Hotel is only a 3 minute walk to the closest Underground station (Earl's Court). Our room, including the bathroom was very clean. It was a bit cramped for 4 people, but about what we expected to be so close to the city. The staff were very nice and helpful when we had questions. The simple breakfasts in... More
