Lording It Up

Excellent allround. The staf are genuine and helpful ...going the extra mile. While there are kitchen facilities i am not sure if breakfast is available. There is a coffee/ hot choco machine however. There are fridges in the kitchen which guests are free to use.

Probably unbeatable value.

You must do something about that shower head. Limescale blocking shower heads, and killing off washing machines, is part of life for most British people. If nothing else, a manager might once per month unscrew each shower head, poke each hole with a pin and re-assemble. Double room in the sense that one could just about walk past the double bed, but there was also a desk and a nice chair, albeit the room was not sufficiently wide for the chair to fit alongside the bed (helpful for my CPAP machine). Nice fitted carpet. Good en-suite toilet, wash and shower room. Cleanliness: excellent. Television and WiFi worked well. At about £27 per night, just inside the Central Zone and in a posher part of London, probably unbeatable value. Co-op mini-supermarket round the corner very friendly.

Lord Jim è chiuso, ma nessuno ci ha avvertito, quando siamo arrivati davanti all'albergo abbiamo trovato un cartello dove c'era scritto di rivolgersi all'albergo accanto, il Best Western. Qui, non avendo una camera familiare, come avevamo richiesto, ci hanno dato una stanza da tre e una da uno al seminterrato, senza aria condizionata e con una finestrella che affacciava su una specie di chiostrina angusta e senza aria. L'aria condizionata era rotta, così abbiamo chiesto che ci cambiassero le stanze. La signora alla reception ci ha detto che non avevano altre camere disponibili. Solo nel pomeriggio, quando alla reception è arrivata una ragazza italiana molto gentile e disponibile, ci hanno dato due stanze matrimoniali. L'albergo, pur essendo un 4 stelle, nel periodo del coronavirus non ripristina le stanze e non cambia gli asciugamani.

Excellent value and conveniently located

This hotel is excellent value in my opinion and has a friendly and helpful receptionist and i was very happy with the room i stayed in for 2 nights and it was ideal for me as it's just a few minutes wall form Earls Court tube. And the common areas and my room in the hotel were very clean and my only disappointment was that i was unable to get the wifi to work on my laptop and also the shower head was a bit blocked with limescale so it wasn't a very powerful shower but overall i was very satisfied for my short stay there.

Ok für einen kurzen Aufenthalt

Die Zimmer im Hotel sind nicht klein, sondern sehr klein. Vor allem im Badezimmer hat man kaum genug Platz um sich zu drehen. Daher würde ich auf keinen Fall als Paar in dieses Hotel gehen (mein Bett war z. B. nur auf einer Seite zugänglich). Die Sauberkeit des Hotels könnte auch besser sein. Sehr geschätzt habe ich die Lage des Hotels gleich hinter der Earls Court Station und trotzdem in einer ruhigen Strasse. Daher kann ich es für kurze Auftenhalte durchaus empfehlen. Frühstück habe ich jeweils ausserhalb des Hotels eingenommen. Es hat einige Orte in unmittelbarer Nähe, wo man ein gutes Frühstück bekommt.

Fint service men værelserne var meget små og vandet i bruseren var så varmt at man ikke kunne bade- kun plaske vand på sig. God beliggenhed med nem adgang til tubes
