Super cute hotel and staff was nice. Only issue was fire alarm went off several times due to rooms having small kitchens, family rooms are below coffee station in lobby so you hear knocking constantly all morning and our room vanity sink had no hot water and our tub didn’t drain properly. (And our key card had to be reset every day)

Loved!
Absolutely loved this hotel! The cozy room and beautiful lobby, restaurant and bar all live up to the photos 100%. I'd recommend booking a rate with breakfast included as it was delicious and a perfect way to start the day. We look forward to coming back and trying other Locke properties around Europe.

Absolutely Stunning Stay
This was one of my most favorite hotels that I’ve ever stayed in! The style and aesthetic is absolutely lovely. The hotel staff was extremely friendly and accommodating for anything we may have needed, in addition to help with recommendations it was also conveniently located right next to a bus stop and train station, which made commuting around London extremely easy while allowing us to stay in a relatively local/non-touristy area!

Clean and modern room . Kitchen is sufficiently equipped for light cooking and heating up. Nice quality toileteries There is a bus stop right in front of the apahotel , otherewise Earls Court underground tube station is only 8 minutes walk away along a highstreet which makes the walk feels shorter.

Overall a very positive experience. However, as an older person, I found the narrow, spiral staircase to enter the bedroom level a challenge. I was so afraid that I would fall- suitcases had to stay on the first level- carrying them up would have been a challenge to me and my 27 year old daughter. Perhaps a statement in the room descriptions would be helpful. As mentioned in other reviews, lighting was dark in some areas of the unit. Other than that- it was a nice stay.
