JEFFERSON, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

good value, good location

I booked a single bed room for 2 nights. The room was quite small, however it was functional and comfortable. Almost like a cruise boat cabin. Although the hotel is on a busy street, my room faced the back so I did not hear much street noise. The location of the hotel is great - close to the tube, shops and restaurants.

Very good stay, staff very polite and helpful, slight issue during check-in as the cleaners had missed the room 🙈, but the staff were very quick to sort it out and a free complimentary breakfast for the trouble. Very nice hotel, great location would definitely stay here again 👍

Fabulous well situated boutique hotel

We loved our stay at the rockwell. The hotel is located a short walk from the local tube station (Earls Court). Although it is on a main road it was quiet inside. The reception area is very boutique and beautiful. The staff were lovely and helpful and our deluxe double room had a mezzanine floor with the bed upstairs, which we loved!

Really enjoyed my stay and very grateful to the lovely team at the Rockwell for taking care of me on a work visit to London. Much valued and would book again.

8/10 Very good

We had booked two rooms on the 2nd floor. Nice big rooms. A little noisy, because of the traffic. The air con was on in the hall, cooling it down to a chilly temperature, while in the bathrooms in the room, the heating was on. Not very environmentally conscious.

Generally ok. Although Bar was under stocked, breakfast was average and my room was directly next to the lift so noisy very early on a Sunday morning! Bed was super comfy though!

We had a great stay at the Rockwell! Lovely property, very clean and comfortable, excellent location right near Earl's Court Road restaurants and tube stop, and also a short walk to Kensington High Street. The back garden is a nice place to sit for a little fresh air.
