What guests think

Tulse Hill Hotel sits above a lively pub with handy on-site parking and easy rail links, where many guests praise the friendly staff, comfortable beds, and generally clean rooms, though some note dated decor plus occasional maintenance or housekeeping issues.

Several reviews mention traffic noise from the busy South Circular and main junction. Food and drink receive many compliments, but breakfast and dinner can be inconsistent, with limited availability, occasional cold dishes, and some unexpected charges. A few also report technical or slow check-in. Overall, it suits travellers comfortable with a lively pub setting and some trade-offs.

It is in a very convenient place and transport is in abundance and also there is a safe and secure parking. The staff is very helpful and very friendly. The meals are very nice and nice portions. The rooms are very clean but the steps are too many and difficult to maneuver with luggage. On the whole it is a very nice hotel and I wish I had a long time to stay!

Parking behind the hotel made it super easy to get in and out when renting a car. Yummy food as well in the restaurant / bar. Staff was very helpful and accomodating.

I booked this for my parents to stay at whilst visiting. Not only great parking, the room was spacious with AC, Nespresso machine, large bed and the breakfast was amazing. The staff are very friendly and helpful. This hotel also hosts a fab adult Easter egg hunt. Happily recommend this hotel and pub to anyone!!!

It was ok, wasn’t bad, but wasn’t a place I would rave about. I chose it because it had parking (a rarity in London) and because of that it was easier to overlook the revamp that the hotel seriously needs. The staff were very friendly, but obviously overworked and understaffed so service was very slow. We were only there one night for a concert, so it wasn’t a big deal - however I would of been upset if I was there for longer.

This hotel was absolutely decent for what me and my partner needed. We were staying as we went to a music festival up the road in Brockwell Park. Location was perfect. Plenty of spaces for a car to be parked which was brilliant. Staff were polite. The bed in the room was so comfy and large. My partner had some issues sleeping with noise from the outside but we knew it wouldn't be quiet being in London. The only issues we had was some problems with the TV not working properly for a bit and the taps in the bathroom were loose plus the cold tap had hot water coming out but apart from that, great place and would stay again.

A two night stay with family members. Traditional London pub which served very tasty food. Not all of the items on the menu or drinks in the bar were available. The rooms were clean but not spacious and situated on the side of the noisy south circular road. The staff were friendly and accommodating.

The photos of the property looks much better than the reality. We were not impressed with the demand for a £50 deposit for crisps and a small selection of snacks in the room. The room had an infestation of ants mainly in the bathroom. We were woken up by a fire alarm at 7.20am apparently caused by a hot shower - this was unforgivable. All that being said the staff were very friendly and polite and helpful as were the bar staff. We would love to leave a higher star score but unfortunately it was too much disruption all considered.

1. The shower was not draining and I had to shower in standing water. 2. The AC in my room was crackling and loud like there was a rodent inside it. This went on all night.

The bedroom radiator was off on arrival and we were handed a welcome piece of paper telling us to turn it on if we were cold. It was -5c outside, so I think this should have been done before arrival. The toilet needed a good clean.

Super nice friendly staff but unfortunately the rooms are quite tired and dated. Mouldy bathroom tiles and quite a noisy location being next to the south circular. Breakfast was good quality but a shame that they ran out of avocado, pancakes and bacon while we were there. The manager was actually really nice but has been let down by head office I suspect

The good: the staff were so friendly, the food we tried which was snacks and starters was delicious. The bad: the room felt like it was halfway through a maintenance job - both shelves were missing from the bathroom, wall fixings still attached. The missing shelves were spootted stored under the sink. The housekeeping was lacking with marks on the bathroom floor and the vent on the aircon was seriously dusty. Would definitely come back for drinks and dinner but would be cautious about staying again.

Although the room faced a busy street, the double glazing worked to reduce the traffic noise. They informed me they would stay again. Public transport and taxis were readily available in the area.

We were told we had been upgraded on arrival and went to our room to find two bags of crisps and two cans of drink with the tea and coffee. There were no visible signs to indicate these came at an extra charge so assumed they were complementary with the upgrade. After checking out an extra charge was put on my card and I was told it was for these items. Really disappointed with this as it was very misleading. I was told a price list was included in the basket, there was none as we specifically checked just in case. After explaining the circumstances and requesting a refund I received a very brusque reply saying there would be none. A shame as we would have returned otherwise.

Food - poor and expensive for what it was I.e 4 prawns, linguine and 1 sliced cherry tomato. Cheap to make. Also, 2 pint glasses of coke from the pump at plus £10 is extortionate. Instructions in booklet left in room for WiFi and air Con did not concur with actual methods. No cold water in sink tap (only warm). Windows unlockable. Staff need to smarten their dress. Would not recommend as the hotel looks very tired.
