Notting Hill Gate Hotel

The hotel is clean but very very basic. Location is premium. There is no lift and my room was on the 4 or 5th floor. Had to carry luggage up and down on my own! Room are small and will only do the job if you are looking to crash for one night. Heating was broken. Blankets were not in made bed - so you have to make your bed really. I’d only come back if like this time I had no choice.

Went to watch the football and used this hotel as a base. Ideal for Notting Hill gate tube. Stunning buildings nearby and Kensington Palace well worth a stop. Staff friendly and helpful. Room was small but we had no issues. Beds were comfy and had a great sleep. Even kept hold of our bags for us while.we explored on day 2. Give it a try and worth a go as a solid reliable London base. Just tucked off main road but noise not an issue either. Fab!

Staff friendly and helpful, luckily we are pretty fit as the rooms we had were on the fourth floor with no lift!

You get what you pay for which is a compliment. Cheap accomodation in central London for 1 night max I'd recommend. No lifts is frustrating - especially hauling 20kg suitcase up to the 4th floor on a windy narrow staircase at 11pm. Overall it's fine - it's a bargain hotel - there's a bed and ensuite toilet but it's obviously not brilliant.

Staff were great and the location of the hotel was very convenient! The only flaw is that they do not have an elevator so i

Well-located hotel. It's a bit old, and they don't offer a secure place to store lugagge (you may leave it at the front desk, but at your own risk.) It's got no lift and it could be more eco-friendly. Yet, I'd still recommend it because of its location.

Dated and way to many narrow stairs

Lovely hotel with comfortable rooms inc air conditioning / heating units No lift so if you get rooms on the upper floors, make sure you can comfortably carry your bags / cases as it’s an old but lovely and well maintained character property

This was a decent hotel for the location and the price. Staff was very nice. The only complaint would be that there were a lot of stairs, but we were able to leave our bag downstairs for our stay. The water pressure in the toilet was a bit off too. The reception is open 24/7 though which was also great! The room had good light and a nice view over the neighborhood (cute British houses) and we liked that.

Nice property for the price. The rooms are very small and there are a lot of stairs. If that is an issue I imagine you can request a room on a lower floor. I was greeted kindly and the room was clean and cozy. Great location. I would stay again for a short stay.

- Noisy in the evenings - Terrible smell from the drain in the bathroom - Room was freezing but thankfully had an electric heater and spare blankets - Cleaning und updating required - Good location for Tube - Wifi ok to get some work completed - Good shower with warm water (not always guaranteed in London) - Basic but ok for 1 or 2 nights

Friendly and accommodating staff, good location. I've been staying here a few times as it is very convenient for me and stayed in a lot of different rooms. TLC needed, but overall ok. This time though there was a very unpleasant smell coming from the drains. I didn't want to complain about it and left windows open and fan on to compensate. TV didn't work properly and some lights had no bulbs, plugs loose, few spider webs on the ceiling, mugs/spoon and remote needed a good disinfectant, but I've seen worse in London and the bed was good (enjoyed hard mattress) and the room was freshened up daily.

I booked a small room , so even when i saw that the room was the size of the closet i didnt mind but it was dusty , the sheets unclean with hair on them and there were a weird smell moist and humidity also the biggest problem was that the room was on the stairs right next to the reception with 0 sound proofing so i expected that a sound of a coming guest was going to wake me up a few times but i didnt expect that the receptionist was going to have a video call till morning hours. Maybe other rooms at this hotel are better but i had a terrible stay

Good location and quaint house on nice street. However, the double room was tiny, the smallest we have ever stayed in. You had to walk out of the room to push your case in. Tiny bathroom and shower that smelt and had black mould on the tiles. Matress old style hard springs. Was it worth £76 per night not really. But staff are friendly.

The positive: great location. The negatives: I was put in a basement unit (I've never in my life been put in the basement of a hotel) and the room had a strange odor, like dampness and sweat. It was also very hot and had poor WiFi connection. I asked to change rooms and the staff was kind about it, moving me to a (very small) room upstairs. Unfortunately, the toilet of the new room had not been cleaned and the room smelled like sewage at night. Overall, I did not sleep well and this place was not comfortable. Would not recommend.

Great value for money. Very clean. Amazing staff.

The hotel is very well situated with very friendly and helpful staff. The room was clean and tidy and the bed was comfortable.

It was very good nice clean rooms very friendly and helpful staff. Toilet was bit cramped congested otherwise good.

Good room, location great, shower good, reception friendly. Top floor, but no view unfortunately. Only downer was the smell in the bathroom, not nice.

The room condition was very poor with broken tiles and flooring. However, the towels and the bedding were clean. The location was really convenient. I think the price reflects the level of the room and the stay. Overall, the hotel was quiet and you can sleep well.

I was warned my single person room might be small, but had no idea that I'd be spending the night in a cupboard. It had all the facilities you'd expect, bed, bedside cabinet, kettle, tea making, telephone, TV, toilet, shower, free standing plug in radiator, wall mounted fan that you'd need to climb on the bed to reach, clean bedding and towels. But you could hardly open the door to get in, I stored my one small case in the shower, I could barely use the toilet it was so cramped next to the sink. Nowhere to put clothes other than 4 door hooks and 2 tiny bedside cabinet drawers. How this passes the law as a hotel room is beyond me. I've never slept in a cupboard before and didn't last night. I nearly fell out of the small bed onto the hardwood floor and lost the one sheet and bed throw numerous times. I couldn't shower as it was too high and too small to fit in. Thank goodness it was only for one night. There was no breakfast room or even anywhere to sit other than on the bed in my "room" I mean cupboard, and the kitchen was another "cupboard" with microwave and fridge. This was cheap yes only £75 per night, but it was worth £25. Never, never again. Be warned if you book here, when they say small 1-bed room they mean converted cupboard.

Our stay at the Notting Hill Gate Hotel was great.The location was excellent.- especially when needing to get to Heathrow during strike action which closed all underground stations. Although we didn't have a window we could look out nor open, we had an A/C unit which kept the room comfortable. The bathroom was newly renovated and the shower was wonderful. They also provided us with fresh towels every day which was unexpected but appreciated. I would definitely stay here again on another visit.

The staff was exceptionally kind and helpful, and we thoroughly enjoyed exploring the neighborhood—there was plenty to see and do within walking distance. Unfortunately, our experience was impacted by a leak in the ceiling of our room. For both nights of our stay, we were woken up by water dripping from the floor above. While the hotel had placed a bucket in the room to catch the drips, we believe this room should not be made available to guests until the issue is fully resolved.

Maybe I just got unlucky with the room that I was in. My room (26) was a small single, small being the most generous use of the word small ever. Fortunately I’m no taller than 5’8” - if you are and end up in this room I guarantee you that you won’t fit.The single bed just about fitted into the room and if I’d had a suitcase it would’ve had to have gone in the shower. There was a small 2 drawer cupboard that I didn’t open but everything that I put on top of it had to be unstuck for me to pick anything up. I just about managed to navigate the 1 pillow bed but it most definitely wasn’t the best night in a hotel that I’ve ever had. The TV didn’t have any programmes available as there wasn’t any signal to serve it. Bizarrely though I had to leave my room card at the reception whenever I left the room. Friendly enough staff but I won’t be returning here.

Clean but extremely small rooms and tiny shower. Only room to sleep and no space for luggage except on the floor in front of the door.

The stairs are too narrow, no elevator, so walking to the 4th floor with luggage may be a challenge. Also, the room size is really tiny, our room was for 3 people, but just two of us had difficulty moving around. The furniture is very old and damaged. Double bed is actually a 1.5 person bed with 180cm long, so for taller people, you most likely will be "touching" a kettler sitting on a small table between beds. There is no chair or table in the room and no where to hang the jacket or coat.

We stayed in a triple room which was quite crammed but we were only there for 1 night so that was fine, we also had an access to the balcony which was great. Bathroom was quite crammed as well especially the toilet almost against the wall but clean and functional. Room was warm and comfortable and staff were polite and friendly. Area was lovely, lively but nice and quiet over night and very convenient location. For the price I would happily stay there again.

This hotel was an easy and short walk from Notting Hill Gate Tube station. The location was excellent; it's on top of plenty of restaurants, cafes, and shops. The hotel itself has someone on reception 24/7, and the staff were friendly and welcoming throughout. The twin room was small with very limited storage, but the beds were comfortable and the linen was clean. The en-suite was perfectly acceptable; the shower was hot and a good pressure. There was a kettle, and the tea-making facilities were well stocked (and replaced daily). We were on the second floor and there was no lift, so be mindful of staying here if you have mobility issues. Contrary to what the hotel claims on Trip Advisor, it did not offer breakfast at all, let alone for free, which was something of a disappointment as we were relying on that for the mornings, and is one of the reasons we chose to stay here. The hotel did not inform us of the construction going on next door, so we had to keep the window closed to keep the noise out. The room did have a strong wall fan, however, so it wasn't too warm. All in all it was good hotel for the price, and exactly what you'd expect from a budget hotel in practically the centre of London.

Great location, nice hotel in old building. Room very clean, bed comfortable. The issue is lack of sleep. Rooms are not sound proofed, from most rooms you can hear every word spoken at reception. Desk is open 24hrs, people coming and going all night. I was woken several time during the night. Overall very good value for money, but the whole point of hotel is sleep.

No lifts - had to carry 5 suitcases over a couple of floors. We visited late June and London was hot. But this hotel had no A/C and the only fan present was in a suboptimal place. Opening windows didn't help as the room was land locked. Our room, though it had bed for 4 ppl, there was not any space left to stand or do anything else. Shower area was too small for even one person to stand conveniently.

Room was clean, we had nice room at the front with balcony, staff friendly. Beds comfy. Towels were changed everyday, would suggest this should be optional, to save unnecessary cleaning. The reception area was a bit messy, lots of laundry lying about, could just do with a tidy up down there ! Great location lots round about restaurant wise, coffee shops too.

Small room, rude staff, sketchy keycard policy where you need to handover your room key to the receptionist whenever you leave the hotel premises

Fast and friendly front desk staff. I have stayed there many times and they will usually give you an early check in if it's available.

The first night we arrived the guy with glasses was rude.

Good experience. The reception was friendly and welcoming. Nice and easy to talk too. Simple process, no hassle or any problems. Even got to choose our rooms whilst at the hotel which was nice. Recommend !

Awful experience at this well below average hotel that looks nothing like its pictures. We arrived to the hotel and told to go downstairs to our room, number 4 and when we opened our door we were greeted by the smell of stale urine, it was that bad it was making myself and my partner gag.. we have a one year old that obviously we didn’t feel comfortable having in this room.. that and the fact we had 0 daylight in the room and you could hear everything from outside the paper thin doors. We proceeded to make staff aware of this problem, but they were hesitant to come and see what we were saying, they eventually came to the room and agreed that they’re was a foul smell.. we then asked that we were moved as we could not deal with this for 4 days, he then told us he had no other rooms spare. This was understandable but we then asked that we could have a refund due to the inhabitable room. We were told this wouldn’t be possible. We proceeded to book a completely different hotel meaning we had to spend out further to ensure our trip wasn’t a disappointment. We then contacted both Expedia and the hotel which both wouldn’t grant us a refund as claimed its policy didn’t allow them to. I strongly advise not to stay at this hotel unless you want to lay in a urine smelling hotel room and with mo fresh air or day light. And if that isn’t enough the fact you have to leave the room key on reception every time you leave the hotel and the room doesn’t have a safe in it. not a fan

We stayed for a little over a week and enjoyed our stay. Extremely convenient, just off a main road but very quiet location, the rooms were small but clean and loved the high ceilings, windows, bathrooms were great, liked the cleanliness and the front staff was very pleasant and helpful. Train stations and bus stops very close along with great food options. Worked great for us and we hope to return again soon. Thank you!

As usual, friendly staff and early check-in.

Staff extra friendly and helpful. Could not do enough to make stay pleasant. Hotel 2 min walk to bus stop, 5 mins to tube.

Great location and price. An easy 2 min walk to the tube. Friendly staff.

Lucky to book a room for 2 at the last minute with a great discount offer. Great location near the underground, with Tesco Express and M&S Food close by. Clean rooms and friendly staff. Only minor issue is the soundproofing – could hear noise from next door when my TV was off, but luckily my neighbours weren’t late sleepers. Overall, it’s a good place for a short stay within this budget. I might consider staying again if a similar offer comes up.

Location is excellent just walking distance from the tube and shops. Receptionists were very accommodating and nice.

Location location

very close to a several public transport options and food options

Excellent, helpful, friendly staff on 24hr reception. Lovely room, great facilities. Excellent position, close to tube. Wonderful Diana cafe dedicated to HRH Princess Diana with excellent food. Unfortunately, no lift but it was manageable as we had small luggage. Very comfortable beds, warm room for December.

Close enough to the underground to get where you need, cheap enough if just using for a crash pad to explore from. Few nice breakfast places close by

Nice and central hotel in Notting Hill, rooms are small as you expect in central London hotels, but hotel is in a quiet street just a stone's throw from lively Notting Hill, and a good place for a London weekend.

Great location and price. An easy 2 min walk to the tube. Friendly staff.

Super simple, bed, bathroom and a kettle. Dont expect anything more than a room to sleep in. Lots of stairs as well. Pack light!! Bed was comfortable, room was clean and had air conditioning. Staff were super lovely and very helpful. Awesome location with lots of tourist sites withon walking distance or an easy but or tube ride into the city. 10/10 wouod stay again if i was in the area. If yiu stay check iut the Churchhill Arms Hotel and guest get a fiscounr at cafe Diana. Perfect if you arrive late and tired

Location is good. No air, no breakfast, limited space. Would not recommend unless in a pinch.

Room was small but had everything you needed tea coffee facilities. No breakfast facilities on site. Room was tidy but not as clean as could be. Sheets had a few stains on. Not the quietest of hotels to stay I but did for our trip. Not sure I’d stay there again.

No safe in the rooms, badly soundproofed walls, NO breakfast!!!!! At least a hair dryer, fresh towels an a warm shower.

Very good location. Bus stop is very close and taked us straigh to all atractions. Staf very helpful and friendly. Recommend to stay

Fantastic location just a couple of minutes walk from Kensington gardens, minutes to supermarkets, chemist and multiple restaurants and take away options. Basic but decent rooms with a good warm shower after a busy day’s sightseeing.
