Best Hotels near Kilburn High Road Overground Station, London

Had booked this through work so was booked through a booking system (click travel). There is a company card attached to each booking for the hotel to take the required payments. Upon arrival I was asked for ID which I found off as I hadn’t been asked before but that fine. I was then told by the guy on reception that I needed to pay the full price of the room for ‘their insurance’. I swiftly told him it was precooked and paid for to which he replied “oh click travel, okay I’ll take the payment now”. Unfortunately because of my experience staying here I feel he was trying to be a bit sneaky in terms of payment. So room payment sorted, I was then abruptly told there was no food and the lift was out of order (I was on the 4th floor). The lift was subsequently broken Monday, Tuesday and fixed on Wednesday. I get to my room to find the air conditioning did not work and for some reason the windows were bolted shut and you could not open them. The weather was particularly hot on these days which made the stay extremely uncomfortable. I asked on Tuesday morning if somebody could look at the AC he took an uninterested note of it and surprisingly nobody bothered to look or fix it. The room was not clean, there were stains on the walls, blinds were dirty and the shower head disgusting. I did not eat breakfast nor did I touch the tea/coffee in the room I ate all my meals out due to lack of facilities and cleanliness of the room. I would not recommend this hotel and don’t let the 4 stars fool you, I’ve stayed in holiday inn’s & travelodges with a hell of a lot more about them. £130 a night, you get nothing but I a boiling hot uncomfortable, unclean room to stay in. Read the reviews people and don’t waste your time. The Marriott is a bit pricier a stone throw before this hotel and you are better off paying a bit more.

Walls were not clean when we arrived and lots of cobwebs on door surface especially around metal frame. We had to check out at 11 so plenty of time for rooms to be cleaned and turned around. Bedclothes are extremely old and worn. They should be replaced as they look like they were bought and in use since the last century, an old relative is only person who I would imagine has such textiles. Beds were very small so again when was the last time furniture was updated. Bathroom was ok but very old shower. Overall the price vs standard of accommodation does not match up and I would recommend only visiting this hotel as a last resort. With more investment, it could be better as the location is quite good.

The location is good as it’s 3 minutes away from the underground station at earls court. The room is basic but clean. However the air conditioning is not working well, thus will not recommend for stay during summer.

The reception and lobby operate like a train station,lots of people arriving and leaving arround the clock.the lobby is small and crowded, so you can not simply sitting and enjoying the bar. Breakfast buffee is somewhat less crowded and there's fine verity of food. We got a suite on the 4th floor,a fine large room, with lots of furniture,but the storage places for clothes almost non existing. It is as if the closet,open one , is only planed for buissnessmen,who hang their suits! Not enough light above the mirror for a woman, to put some makeup. Bathroom good size but the door is not closing easily. The taxi/bolt sevice is awful.we had to wait for a cab 15 to 20 minutes, mayby the location is problematic, and walking to the nearest tube swiss cotage, took ne 12 minutes. The staff was very nice and helpfull!

The morning after our first night my friend and I noticed a bug crawling on one of the beds, we continued our investigation and noticed DOZENS of those crawling all over the twin beds we just spent the night in. We were exhausted the night before after coming back to hotel late and after having shower just jumped straight into beds - who would have thought we weren’t they only ones spending night in those beds! Quick research after our findings and we realised that those were BEDBUGS! Never in my life had I come across anything like this before, not even after being a student and staying at questionable hostels! We reported this to the reception and were offered another room. We didn’t move immediately in the morning and made an agreement that we would move in the evening when we would be back to the hotel. Coming back in the evening and reporting to the reception for a new room, we found one of the evening staff being rude to us and questioning if the bedbugs were from their hotel (like what?!?!?!?). Simple, we said, because we had photo and video evidence of bedbugs crawling all over the beds, we said! This quickly ended her argument with us. We then moved to our new room, where there was no obvious evidence of bedbug infestation, however being a reportedly new room, we found hair all over the floor in the bathroom of that allegedly “cleaned” new room. Unfortunately, being an extremely sensitive to cleanness person and following the events of the previous night, I decided to leave early and not spent another night in this disgusting hotel. My friend, who had a flight early next morning however had no chance and spend a little longer and left at 04am. The evening I decided to leave I started coming out in rash, which had only been getting worse ever since. The intensity of the itch is like nothing I’d ever experienced before - it stops me from sleeping, it drives me absolutely mad, no matter how much I try, one can’t look professional when they have bite marks all over their body, including the face, ears, neck, fingers, hands, forearms - ie areas one can’t cover up - and needing to constantly scratch herself! This obviously has affected my work! And the itch is no better even 6 days later!! In fact, the bite marks are now swollen, causing swelling of my fingers, the scratch marks are now bleeding and I am the most irritated I’ve ever been! Let me emphasise, this is six days later and I genuinely don’t know how much longer I’m yet to suffer! I have obviously filed a complaint and have been contacted by the hotel - they are “kindly” offering to compensate the cost of my medication (as I am now on antihistamines - which don’t work really, as I can’t take the stronger type due to its sedating effect, as I have to continue working and driving; as well as steroid cream) and the cost of my dry cleaning. HOWEVER, despite multiple email exchanges and telephone consultations, they are not planning to refund a 100% of our payment, the argument being

Good service, the people at the front desk are very nice. The room was clean and spacious. Convenient to travel, very close to Tesco. The serviced apartments are very well equipped.

Fantastic hotel overlooking Hyde Park Corner. Great service and everything you want/need in a London hotel. We used the 25 m pool and there was only one other person using it at the same time as us. We felt the whole stay was one of our better ones in London.

I always love going KGB backpackers. It's a great location for me as well. Ladbroke Grove, Holland Park and Notting Hill are just give minutes away, as well as Westfield Shopping Centre on the other side. The hostel is located literally across the road from the Bakerloo Line giving me access to the Elizabeth Line at Paddington which is about 6 minutes on the train, which includes all the stops as well. The hostel has good facilities, a kitchen, a lounge and a chill out area. A bar tuck shop and a restaurant inside as well. The beds are comfy and there is a shower in the room. It's quite conveniently located in a quiet area as well at the very end of NW London right next to Wilesden Junction for overground interchange. It's like home to me. I stay here whenever I can and hate it when it gets fully booked. A must try for low-key staying but quick Central London and West End access. Maida Hill and St John's Wood is close by as well. Not even 10 minutes by car. So many locations. Must visit!!!💯😁🇬🇧👍👍🏆🏆🏆🏆🏋️

We stayed 3 nights here, first night the rooms were wrong, after going to reception the ignorant woman behind reception was no help. Her male colleague changed the rooms on day 2. All 4 rooms were dumps, not fit for 1 star. Our room in the basement was directly above the tube line, you could hear it travelling every few minutes. Health and safety doesn't exist here. Breakfast is basic, no hot food and the milk was sour and stored in a flask. Everywhere except reception is filthy. The bar was closed for 2 of the 3 days we spent here as the barman did not turn up for work and nobody else was authorised to open the bar including the manager. 10 pounds charge to store your luggage while you wait to get checked in!!! While passing through reception at various times we heard at least 6 people complaining about the rooms they had been allocated. Nothing matches the photos online. Windows unlockable, safes not working, corroded tap in the ”newly refurbished bathroom”, showers blocked. Well over priced for what it is. This place is not a hotel!! Unfortunately 0 stars is not an option.

We stayed in one of the apartments, for one night. It was a double with on suit and a kitchenette! The room was clean and nicely presented! The owner/caretaker was very friendly. He also advised us, on how to get a refund from Booking.com after we were unable to check into the original room we had booked with a different guesthouse! We would definitely stay here again! Thank you ☺️
