Practical accommodation
This is a small accommodation but it is very appropriate. It is located near of the underground and the neighborhood is beautiful. It is not fancy but it is right what you need if you are traveling to enjoy many places around London.

Basic but comfortable
This is a basic, but comfortable hotel, in a very nice area of London. Very convenient for travel in to the city. Our room and furniture was a little dated, but clean. A special thank you to the staff (Rohan and Ann) who gave us such a warm welcome and couldn't do enough for us. Rohan even changed our room to ground floor when he could see we might struggle with the stairs. Breakfast is simple (cereal and toast) but sufficient. Would definitely stay here again.

My friend and i stayed at avoca hotel for 3 nights. Upon arrival, we noticed straight away how run down and untidy the entrance hall was. The 2 flights of stairs were unlit as there were no bulbs in the old light fittings i haad to use my phone torch to see where we were going. The room on the top floor smelled damp and was freezing. We went straight to bed as it was late. When we opened the curtains the next morning, we discovered that the single glazed window was stuck open and couldn't be shut. There were wires coming from the tv that were hanging loosely and hidden behind the radiator. The towels were so old that they were frayed and threadbare. The bed bases were uncovered and full of dirty stains. We didnt, or darent check the mattresses or pillows! This was definitely the worst hotel that we had ever stayed in and should be gutted and renovated. It is not fit for purpose and is definitely a health and safety hazard. We would both like some sort of compensation from the £405 that we paid please. The only good thing about the hotel was Rohan, who runs it as he was apologetic about our situation. This hotel should be condemned. I have photos for proof of the state of it also.

Researched and Recommended
Before each trip to London, I do extensive research. For this trip, I wanted: inexpensive no-frills hotel, strong ratings, close to Tube station. I found all that at Avoca House Hotel. In addition: Safe, quiet neighborhood a short walk from Swiss Cottage Tube. Clean, comfortable, quiet room with comfy bed, free wi-fi and adequate private en suite bathroom and shower. The free breakfast of cereal and toast was a bonus. Hosts Rohan and Ann were very friendly and helpful. I did not plan to spend any daytime hours in my room, so this was the perfect starting and ending point for my daily London adventures. Pictures online accurately represent the hotel, so no surprises or disappointment as it is as advertised. Two pieces of advice: book direct with the hotel for the best price. Second, avoid the Swiss Cottage Tube between about 7:30am and 9:30am as trains there are beyond crowded. Don't plan to bring your bags on en route to or from Heathrow during those hours...leave early or late. I would recommend the hotel and would stay there again. Thank you, Rohan and Ann! See you again!

This was a very very basic hotel and definitely not worth the money. Breakfast consisted of toast and cereal which i do not consider a continental breakfast. The good points are it was clean and the staff were nice.

Old and warn
Threadbare and old property. Take your shower/bath early. Water pressure is low and hot water is limited. Staff is pleasant and helpful with fresh towels. I doubt if they would be in business if anywhere else but London where lodging is limited

Would have been a great place 40 years ago. It is very run down. The room I had would be magnificent if it had a coat of paint, some new carpet and decent furniture. Beautiful bay windows opening onto the street. It was cheap and in a half decent spot though. A about 5 minute walk to the train

Basic budget hotel. Bed/ pillows were comfy, and the room was spacious although the furnishibgs have seen better days. The manager was welcoming and friendly. Kettle didn't work but was replaced quickly. TV signal kept cutting out, but that may have been down to the heavy rain. Breakfast of cereal, toast, orange juice, tea/ coffee was provided in a light airy breakfast room.

Does what it says on the tin.
It was fairly basic, but what I expected for the price. Friendly welcome. Beds a bit firm so not the best night’s sleep, but was fairly quiet. The free continental breakfast was very basic, but did the job. Was 20 minute walk to the Roundhouse, which was why we were there.

The pictures don't tell the true story
The rooms are much shabbier than the pictures show...the carpets are worn and stained and the furniture was in good shape 30 years ago. Desperately in need of fixing up. While there was always hot water, the water pressure was so low we started saying we were going to take a drizzle, instead of a shower. Our bathroom was tiny and the bath tub was tall, so a shorter person would have difficulty climbing in and out. There's no bathtub plug so it's showers only, apparently. They do not clean your room, so we had a shortage of tp by our third day. The manager was very nice and helpful, so he was a bright light in an otherwise dismal experience.
