"Hotels in the UK are generally quite small. A 14-square-meter room is fine for one person, but it would be a bit cramped for two. There's no travel adapter available, but you can charge your phone using the 220V outlet in the bathroom."
"Great location - a minutes walk from the tube station and had a bus stop right outside
Our bathroom didn’t have toilet roll and looked a bit grubby but the lovely receptionist sorted it straight away
Comfy bed, relaxing night
Perfect for the price"
"Very good, overall very good, the room is big enough, the staff is also very enthusiastic, highly recommended, the nearby transportation is also very convenient, I will choose this hotel again in the future"
"This place is spotlessly clean, and the owner is truly dedicated to running it well. The front desk staff, especially the young man, is incredibly patient, enthusiastic, and thoughtful.
It's very close to the London Eye and Big Ben, just a 20-minute walk.
You can take the 63 bus to King's Cross Station, making day trips to Cambridge and Edinburgh really convenient.
Bus 148 offers a scenic route past the city's most iconic attractions – no need for a Big Bus tour!
This is my second stay here, and I honestly can't recommend it enough.
The breakfast is quite substantial for me, and my Chinese palate was perfectly happy with the eggs, oatmeal, milk, and coffee. They even provide purified water and fruit! It feels like the owner isn't even trying to make money, just completely focused on customer service.
There are two supermarkets nearby, and the area feels safe, but I'd advise not coming back too late. London teenagers can be a bit... excitable, to say the least!"
"Positives
Friendly staff
Massive room
Good immenities in room
Very clean
Good linen and comfy pillows
Very quiet
Negatives
Standard lamp and wall lamps not working
Curtains missing, so could not black out room
Fridge not working
Smell of sewers present
On the whole a very pleasant stay, close to several bars, take aways and cafes. Walking distance to Battersea Power Station and nearby tubes stations.(10mins)
Lovely cafe about 5 mins from hotel, did an awesome breakfast and very reasonably priced
I would recommend the Axiom, just a few minor bits if sorted would make it excellent"
"I can't fault the location, the cleanliness and the friendly staff. Easy to check in. They let you bring your own food and eat in the communial area. I like that the beds have rubber mattresses more hygienic that way. The last time I stayed here my room had curtains on the beds for privacy, but not this time, so I used my duvet and sheet, it' helps block out light if someone arrives late. The toilet and shower in the room was very convenient. I picked this hostel for the second time because you can't beat the location, you can get a bus to anywhere from the main road it's like where all buses meet in Elephant and Castle. As a, solo women traveling I feel safe in this hostel, as safe as you can feel sharing with strangers and also both stays have been quiet enough to get a bit of sleep which is a rare for me in a hostel. I will keep using this hostel for my London stays. I have tried several others and this by far has toped the cleanliness and moderness for me. I like a bargain and for the price I really felt I got a deal. My only points deducted would be on no kettle or kitchen to make a cup of tea in the morning, ( if they do have one I missed it both stays) they do have a bar that does food and breakfast, but I follow my own diet restrictions, so would be great to have a space to prepare, but I really can't fault this hostel. 10/10 location and cleanliness 9/10 comfort.. Just wish it had a kettle atleast that dorm guests could use."
"Very good location. The hotel is good but my room was facing to the railway tracks so i could hear the sound of the train.
Their weakness point is their staff. I work in hospitality and there are certain standards that you have to follow to provide quality service.
Reception is available 24h but i called twice from my room (at midnight) and nobody picked up the phone. Finally, i had to come to the reception to inform them something was going on with my phone. That two night receptionist looked at me like if i was crazy and told me my phone was working because there was signal (Of course it was working, they just weren't answering my calls and were sitting around doing nothing).
I asked them for a bottle opener and their answer was ” we do not have”. That's imposible in a 4 stars hotel so what i take away from this hotel is that they simply didn't want to help me.
Also they weren't able to help me connect my device to the TV.
The only staff good point was they gave me late check out until 12:30 for free. That's why i give you 2/5."
"The location is excellent, very quiet and safe, but transportation isn't very convenient. It's quite far from the train station, with only a bus stop nearby. There's a pier, Milebank, about a 5-minute walk away, but the RB6 service is infrequent and ends early. There's a Sainsbury's also within a 5-minute walk.
The room is a bit small but not cramped, and the design is nice; you could even call it a suite. It has a modern feel.
However, the amenities are truly lacking. For a price over 2,000, there are no slippers or toothbrushes. Many of the front desk staff are Indian, and the service feels very stingy. On the positive side, the hygiene is good, it's very clean, and business seems to be doing well. The rooftop gym is unique; although small, it offers great views."
"The room is too small, not as advertised; there is a hotel sign outside the room window, which seriously affects the sleep at night. I hope to change the room, but the hotel did not solve it. The breakfast is quite good. The room rate booked one month in advance is more expensive than the price on the day. The location is very good, very convenient to the surrounding attractions."
"Jadelle, a staff member at the front desk who speaks Chinese, informed us that if we opted out of room cleaning for three days, we could receive a complimentary bottle of red or white wine, four beers, or a £10 voucher for hotel food and beverages. This was a really nice touch. If you're not comfortable with English, you can directly ask for her. Overall, I was very satisfied with my stay at the hotel and would definitely choose it again on my next trip to London."

GGuest UserTop location! Good hotel with nice rooms, great facilities, and very comfortable beds. I've stayed here many times before and will definitely come back again.
EEhime OmokhodionI recently stayed at Novotel London Canary Wharf and it was one of the most enjoyable hotel experiences I’ve had in London. From the moment I checked in, the atmosphere felt modern, welcoming, and effortlessly comfortable.
The highlight of the stay was definitely the view from my room. Waking up to the Canary Wharf skyline and watching the city lights come alive at night was incredible. The floor-to-ceiling windows made the entire room feel bright and spacious, and the panoramic cityscape gave the stay a real luxury feel.
Another standout experience was visiting Bōkan, the hotel’s restaurant and rooftop bar. The views from up there are absolutely breathtaking , you get a stunning panoramic perspective of the whole of London, from Canary Wharf to landmarks across the city skyline. Whether during sunset or later in the evening, the atmosphere is unforgettable. The combination of great food, drinks, and those sweeping views made it one of the best parts of the trip.
The hotel amenities were also excellent. The pool was clean and relaxing, perfect after a long day exploring or working in the city. The gym was well-equipped with everything needed for a proper workout, and the sauna added an extra touch of relaxation that really elevated the overall experience.
Overall, Novotel London Canary Wharf delivers the perfect mix of comfort, modern luxury, amazing facilities, and spectacular London views. I’d happily stay there again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay in Canary Wharf.
WWeibulingenbadunThe room was clean and tidy, and housekeeping came every day. The transportation was also very convenient. The double room was quite spacious, and the facilities were relatively new. My only complaint is that the breakfast was very basic and repetitive; I ate the same things for three days straight and got tired of it.
GGuest UserThe hotel boasts a strategic location, perfect for classic shopping trips and sightseeing. The rooms are larger than average for London, and the services are good. The building itself is quite old but well-maintained and partially modernized. The tea room and Indian restaurant are excellent. The main drawback, typical for hotels of this kind, is the bathroom – while efficient and clean, it's definitely dated and offers limited amenities.
GGuest UserI booked the room for 1 night as I was attending a concert at the Royal Albert Hall. I was very happy with the cost of £73 for the night for a Superior Single room. The staff were friendly & welcoming. My room was on the 4th floor. The lift was very noisy which was a bit of a worry but it worked ok. The room was small with nowhere for me to put my small suitcase. When I first opened my room door I was met with a very noisy portable air con unit. Thankfully the heatwave earlier in the week had eased so I turned off the air con unit. The furnishings & bedding in the room were a little bit tired for a 4* hotel but ok. There were complimentary toiletries, bathroom robe & tea, coffee & a small packet of biscuits. I’d asked for a quiet room if possible & that’s what I got. I had a shower the next morning but it took a while to heat up. Also a non-adjustable monsoon shower head which could be an issue for some. Also part of the shower drain edge was broken.
I didn’t pay for a breakfast upon booking as wanted to keep my options open. Both the Trip website & the signs in the hotel stated the cost of the buffet breakfast was £14 but the staff said it was £15. I decided on the breakfast in the end. There was plenty of choice even if the bacon & sausages were a bit dried out but that’s to be expected with a hot buffet breakfast. Caffeine free coffee was also available.
I was happy with my short stay at The Rockwell & would definitely book again.
MM.AshalThe reception team were friendly at check in, and I was given a beautiful tin of truffles and some drinks vouchers (maybe as a diamond member?). This was really a special touch and appreciated.
However the room itself wasn’t great. I’ve stayed in quite a few London hotels so know you don’t get lots of space and for 1 night you don’t need much, but this room was so small it was a struggle to move about.
The air conditioning was on but it was weak. Thankfully the window opened slightly but it remained warm in the room.
Bathroom was dated, quite small and felt cheap.
Minor point but the pillows and duvet didn’t feel like the usual Hilton ones, they seemed thicker…
Overall, it was clean, relatively quiet and had great service which is all that’s really needed, but it felt more of a budget hotel with Hilton price tag.
I do think they are doing everything they can to make stays as good as possible, since they can’t really do anything about the room sizes.
LLiyaniuThe room was incredibly small! I couldn't believe how tiny 10 square meters felt. I was genuinely shocked when I opened the door. It was even difficult to open my luggage. The table was pathetically small, and there wasn't even a chair. Storage space was extremely limited. The bathroom was even tinier, comparable to an airplane lavatory. Overall, my stay was very uncomfortable. The only positives were the comfortable bed and the breakfast, which at least offered some variety. After a difficult two nights, I decisively moved to the Hilton across the street, and the experience was significantly better. What baffles me is that this place was even more expensive than the Hilton. On the whole, dining and getting around were very convenient, with various UCL colleges in the vicinity. There's a Nero Cafe right next door, so if you don't want the hotel breakfast, you can grab something there. Heading south down the street, you'll find quite a few Chinese restaurants, which is very handy.
GGuest UserI had a wonderful stay at Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington. The hotel was very clean, and the room was spacious, especially by London standards, making it a comfortable place to relax after a day of sightseeing.
The location is excellent, with High Street Kensington Tube Station just a short walk away, making it easy to explore London and reach major attractions. There are also plenty of shops, restaurants, and cafes nearby.
Overall, a great hotel with comfortable accommodations, a convenient location, and good value for money. I would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting London.
AAnonymous UserIt was great stay in Berjaya Eden! I personally live the vibdes. It was walking distance to Bayswater station and Queensway St.
It also easy for you to find the halal foods. Its everywhere and easy to access!
This is my second time to stayed here. The staff was really good and polite.
Eventhough the room that i choose was a little bit “not so spacious” but its ok as long as it walking distance from one to another.
Will repeat?? Of course YES!!
GGuest UserFrom the outside, the hotel looks good, but as soon as you're in the hallway, you realize it's a super old hotel. The rooms were scrawled on, extremely small, and had deteriorated over the years – but they were clean, as they were tidied daily. Additionally, there were hardly any power outlets, but the Wi-Fi reception was very good. The staff was very friendly, and the location was super central, making it very easy to get from A to B (the train station is 5 minutes away).
