    When I woke up, hotel staff were hitting the griddy on my bed while screaming the barbie girl song. Hesitantly, I joined in. For breakfast, they served me 47 year old canine tooth of a pufferfish . Delicious. I would recommend coming here if you like seagulls coming inside your room and pooing on your face for 27 minutes 41 seconds. Loved my visit :)

    Great location, very close to Earls Court. That's it. It's not tired - it's deceased. Mouldy, smelly, stained sheets, once-white-now-brown toilet, bed held up by wood blocks, napkin-thin pillows, mystery dirt on the carpet, warning taped to the bathroom wall that the shower leaks and you will be charged ÂŁ500 if it goes to the room below. Unfortunately cannot rate how it was to sleep because we didn't stay long enough. But the street below was noisy and there was no sound insulation. Trust me, spend the extra tenner each and stay at one of the nicer hotels down the street - there are so many, one of them will have a room free.

    I’ve been to London many times in the last 2 years, and this is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in, I wouldn’t even call it a hotel, only had it booked for the night and couldn’t even stay in the room it was that disgusting, as soon as you walk in the property there’s just dirt over the walls, bathroom and room smell like sewage, keys don’t lock the doors, carpet was filled with dirt, Surfaces in the room not even cleaned. Doesn’t have your useful air conditioner which is needed in London, or even a hair dryer. A shame because the property has so much potential, if it was refurbished completely, no lift the the stairs are so step to carry luggage, as well as the feel like there about to collapse, this place is literally a crack den

    Don’t stay there. Have a little respect for yourselves. I had read some of the reviews online and thought is it really that bad, yes, it is. I didn’t have the highest expectations given the price but you need to stay at a place where there are simple human hygiene standards regardless how cheap. Dirty reception, dirty staircase and stained walls. Room and bathroom beyond unacceptable. No, I didn’t make any pictures. I stormed out. The door to the room was falling apart. One push and you are in the room. Unsafe to stay there. Only one receptionist walking bare foot, completely clueless. I didn’t see anybody else. I travel a lot and I stayed at hostels a lot better than this place.

    PLEASE DO NOT STAY HERE! The money you will save is not worth the headaches you will endure. This place is an absolute joke. 1. Before we were even checked in, we had the extremely awkward and unprofessional “receptionist” ask us for a tip or some “spare change” again, BEFORE we even left the reception desk. He didn’t touch a bag, hold a door, or even check us in properly but wanted money. Rude and unprofessional. 2. More important than the creepy receptionist is the state of decay that the building is in. Mold everywhere in the bathrooms, the carpet was old and dirty, the bed frames were old and had 2x4 wood holding them up, mattresses were flat and had no spring under them. The bed had two of the flattest pillows ever and the receptionist said and I quote “they had no extra pillows in the building.” Every surface was dirty tot he touch. The ceilings had water damage. The walls lacked paint and the “tv” was the size of a tablet. 3. If they put you in the ground floor room, request another immediately. It shares a wall with reception desk and they don’t care that you are in the next room. They slam the old doors, scream over the phones and constantly hit the wall until 11pm. 4. The ground floor unit is extremely hot and because there is no AC in London, opening the window is the only escape. Unfortunately the window has a ledge that in located right on the sidewalk. So it feels unsafe and dangerous to leave the window open. So either die of heat exhaustion or let a burglar in, your choice. 5. I cannot express how bad the condition of this building is. From the moment you walk up, you realize you’ve made a terrible mistake. You tried to save money and now you see why they were so cheap. The employees are rude and unprofessional and the entrance and “lobby” are dirty and unpainted. It feels and sounds like the ceiling and floor will colapse at any second. Plus all the mold. Seriously the mold is out of hand. 6. HOW CAN I FORGET THE TRAIN!!!! The train tracks are located directly behind the building and since Earls Court Station is so busy, a train runs every 10 minutes. You can both head and feel the train, every 10 minutes, the whole entire night.

    I unfortunately booked this hotel. They put us on the top floor. No elevator and no help with luggage - which is what it is. The room was absolutely filthy. The bathroom smelled of raw sewage. The WIFI did not work in our rooms. We complained and got no where - went to their other hotel around the corner to complain and got no where. We booked into a nice ibis not far away. Don't waste your money at this place.

    This is a truly horrible place....worst we ever stayed at. Unclean, tiny rooms with bad smells and thin walls. We booked this hotel in Nov. 2018 when reviews and pictures looked much better than they do now, so unfortunately we fell for it. Thankfully, reviews seem to have caught up and show the "real thing" now, which is extremely unpretty. This hotel deserves all the bad reviews it receives, unfortunately. Do yourselves a favor and stay far away from this one.

    The location is AMAZING! And while paired with the low price, it is truly an enormous plus. The rooms and the hotel itself are in a poor state. In fact, one day water was leaking quite profoundly from the ceiling in the bathroom and we could see it seeping into the walls, too. The bed was very squeaky and uncomfortable. However, the staff was always friendly and warm even if not that helpful. I can recommend Earl's Court Gardens Hotel only if you don't need a high standard of living, and the location and the price are a priority.

    For a hostel it is great. Don't expect a private room experience. The location neighborhood wise is fairly quiet and very close to many stores, restaurants and all you need. It is kept clean.

    Meine Tochter hatte ein Dreibettzimmer gebucht, das in der 3. Etage gelegen war und über eine sehr schmale und steile Treppe erreicht wurde. Ich habe Arthrose und so war dieser Auf- und Abstieg für mich sehr mühsam. Einen ordentlichen Handlauf gab es auch nicht. Der Eingangsbereich und die "Lobby" waren sehr schmal und klein. Das Zimmer (Nr. 301) war sehr spartanisch eingerichtet. Es gab nichtmal einen Kleiderschrank sondern nur eine winzige Garderobe und 2 Nachttischchen sowie eine Frisierkommode. Die Betten sahen aus als wären sie aus Balken zusammengezimmert worden. Das Bad war eine Katastrophe. Schmutz und Schimmel in und an der Duschkabine, die Toilette sah aus als wäre sie seit Jahren nicht saubergemacht worden, der Unterbau vom Waschbecken war kaputt, ebenso der untere Teil der Badezimmertür. Im Hotel gibt es nichtmal einen Raum in dem man bis zum Einchecken oder zur Abreise sein Gepäck lagern kann. Dazu mußten wir zum Schwesternhotel laufen, das einen wesentlich besseren Eindruck machte. Hinter dem Earls Court Garden Hotel verlaufen Bahngeleise, so daß man ständig die Züge hört. Die Zimmerwände waren sehr dünn und dementsprechen hellhörig war das Zimmer. Einzig positiv an diesem Hotel ist, das es nur wenige Gehminuten von der Undergroundstation Earls Court entfernt liegt

    Die Zimmer sind unterdurchschnittlich.Unbedingt nicht buchen! Haben nach 15min wieder ausgecheckt, das Geld natürlich nicht zurück bekommen und ich spreche hier nicht von 20€ sondern 72€ die Nacht. Dafür gab es defektes Mobiliar, eine komplett durchgelegene Matratze, fleckige Bettwäsche, Schimmel im Bad und insgesamt einen sehr unangenehmes Geruch. Das Zimmer war außerdem so klein, dass es schon für 1 Person schwierig geworden wäre. So etwas habe ich noch nicht erlebt.

    The rooms were way too small. I don’t care what the price is, I doubt that the law allows for such small room size. I don’t know what the law says about this in the UK. The heat in the room was unbearable. The tv and internet signal were weak. The location though is excellent and the staff seemed willing to help.

    Great location and the Staff were nice. The room was very nice if you compare the price. We enjoyed our stay

    Where do I start! First room I was put in was absolutely filthy and stunk, the floor was sticky the toilet was dirty and stained with dry urine the shower had dry grime all around the basin and the room had mould and dust everywhere this was definitely the worst room I have ever stayed in. I complained to reception and they informed me they couldn’t help as they have no other rooms but after 20 mins of refusing to stay in it they eventually agreed to give me another room. The second room was just about passable although the carpet desperately needed a hoover there was used soap in the shower from the previous guests we could feel every bed spring poking through the mattress and the radiator was stuck on full heat with no knob to turn it down making the small room very hot. I definitely won’t be using this hotel again, I know the hotel was one of the cheapest in the area and I can put up with cosmetic issues like cracked walls and ripped carpet etc but there’s no excuse to not clean a room before the guests arrive, I will definitely be spending more on a room next time we come.

    Horrible, booked for 3 but stayed only one. Humid, disgusting, warm, shower didn't work (only hot). Do not book this "hotel", it should not be allowed to exist.

  • 2/5 Corinne Y. 10 months ago on Google
    You get what you pay for. We had the bedroom on the 3rd floor which was good for the 3 of us. It was decent but wasn’t great either since the mugs weren’t washed. There was no wifi on the 3rd floor, floors/carpet felt sticky. No lifts, so you’ll have to carry heavy luggage 3 flights. I recommend if you’re only looking to save and sleep there and the location is great, it’s close to everywhere.

  • 2/5 Helen G. 1 year ago on Google
    Bedding was clean and clean towels.. The place could do with a lick of paint to make it appear cleaner.. Stairs very steep so check which floor you're on if you have cases..

  • 1/5 Antonio 1 year ago on Google
    Very bad experience, stayed just because we already payed. Booked a room and we were escorted into a basement. No lights in the bathroom, the room was extremely smelly and moldy inside, probably the worst room we were ever in. Dust everywhere and the floor was sticky, No window to air out the, the only thing clean there were sheets and towels. Would not recommend!

  • 1/5 Mikayla R. 1 year ago on Google
    Terrible hotel would not recommend. Room smelt of sewerage and there was mould all over the bathroom. The overall cleanliness was appalling. The only positive was it was a great location and it was cheap , but in saying that it’s still overpriced for what you get. You’re better off staying in a hostel.

    Was give basement room, had to walk down a very steep stairs with luggage and a 4 Yr child, room was very basic, holes in the bathroom, shower door was on it last legs, alot of noise coming from the upper floors... Could open the window,due to the stairs where less than 6 inches away... They was a unpleasant smell,

    Rating = -12 stars. This is the worst place I have sever set foot in. The “receptionist” kindly escorted me to the luggage room ( a wall ) to start the day. After retiring for the evening I was shocked to find a room covered in filth from top to bottom. The radiator was broke and couldn’t be turned off leaving the room like a crematorium. After deciding to go reception to demand a new room I was greeted by … nobody!Closed at 9.30 Saturday night. The emergency number on the wall rang the vacant telephone in front of me. The bed was horrible and looked to have bugs inhabiting it. The walls had scutter eveywhere. After requesting toilet paper for the room I was grunted at. To top it all off we were charged twice for this experience from hell. Circus hotel only stay here if your a clown or haven’t a penny.

    DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL!!! No stars!! The room was tiny had a cheap bedframe that was broken and had wood underneath holding it off the floor. The mattress was very lumpy and extremely uncomfortable. The room was disgusting.

  • 1/5 Leilah K. 1 year ago on Google

    Worst thing ever. Next to train line, and thin walls. Could not sleep from hearing the next room, the trains that are every 2 minutes and the squeaky bed. I cannot call this thing a hotel. Room was also very small and smelly. No luggage room, they said it is in another hotel nearby. They said there is wifi but it does not reach the room
