Joseph, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location walking distance from Earls Court Underground ( we got the train directly from Heathrow Airport). Fabulous decor throughout the hotel. Room was good and had a decent sized fridge and a very good shower. It was nice to be able to open the windows too. The bed was very comfortable however the 10cm gap to the wall on one side got a bit old as we stayed five nights - would have been fine for a few nights stay.

Beautiful and fun ambience
Brooke, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was amazing (besides a little dirt in the bathroom, barely noticeable but a bit weird once had noticed), the check in was easy, amenities great, we were super comfortable and loved the style and atmosphere. Service in the morning was a bit slow for breakfast so we waited a long time for coffee and food but besides that we had a really great time!

Jessica, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Yes, but there were no instructions as to how to use the stove, AC/ Heat in he room. We also thought the orange color scheme including the ceiling was oppressive. The hotel was also quite noisy.
Mark, 5-night trip

A stunningly decorated hotel in the heart of London! The colors were dreamy, and the bed felt like sleeping on a cloud!

A gem! Gorgeous hotel, great design, generously sized rooms and lovely atmosphere. Rooms even have a mini kitchenette for making a snack or a cup of tea.
Yakir, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Overall our stay was fabulous and the hotel is very unique and quirky. We arrived 3 hours early to drop our bags off and John at the reception allowed us to check in which was much appreciated. In fact his service and friendliness were outstanding during our short stay. Our studio room was lovely and spacious and we loved how it was decorated. We had cocktails at the bar in the evening which was lively and the staff were very helpful. The onsite gym was also very good with plenty of equipment. The only issues during our stay were firstly that there were no towels in the gym and also they seemed under staffed at breakfast. We waited a long time for our coffee and food but the food itself was excellent when it did arrive. We would definitely stay again as the location was also excellent.
