Great staffs, clean room, good breakfast, convenient location

United States of America

Everything was spotlessly clean. Large, comfortable bed with gorgeous bedding. Free milk in the fridge, a bottle of beer, coffee pods and nice toiletries. The weather was hot but there was air conditioning that worked very well.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Everything was very clean and cozy. The rooms are a little snug, but very smart. Will stay here again when in London!

The staff was very nice. They were always greeting us as asking if all is well. They let us check in early as soon as the room was ready. It was great to be able to sleep after a long flight from the US.

United States of America

I loved the staff, they were all wonderful. They held our bags for us before we could check in, so we could still explore. Our room was cozy and well decorated and clean every night we returned from sightseeing. Breakfast was always good. Surprising how quite the room was, being above a pub. Really amazing value in London.

Charming room. Exceptionally comfortable bed and pillows. Logan of toiletries provided for convenience. Amazingly fluffy towels and wonderful shower. Very generous drinks provided in the in room fridge. The breakfast included with the room was amazing!! The location was so convenient close to tube and had beautiful views. My only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer!

“Lovely welcoming pub with beautiful accommodation”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Small Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
The room we stayed in was very small (petite double) with very little storage space. We felt it was probably more suited to a single traveller. At the time of booking we didn't have a choice of room, but on our next visit we would hope to book a larger room.
Beautiful accommodation with lovely en suite shower and lots of little extras to make our stay special. We both had a good night's sleep and enjoyed an excellent breakfast the next morning. We like to visit The Blackbird for something to eat and drink when visiting London, so now being able to stay there is an added bonus. It's location just over the road from Earl's Court tube station makes it a convenient location for getting into central London.

The location was perfect, literally across the road from the underground. The decor throughout was beautiful, and it was the little touches that made it extra special, just things like complimentary bottle of beer in the fridge and a small carton of proper milk. It's the little things. Also had a delicious gluten free breakfast! Cannot recommend highly enough!! Will definitely stay here for our next London visit 👍👍👍
