We wanted a cheap but cheerful hotel in central London for a weekend of shopping/theatre and a decent night's sleep. On the plus side it is well positioned in a quiet area close to shops and Earls Court tube station but it had very tired decor and plenty of wildlife. We stayed on the lower ground floor and found cockroaches... more

Thought I should write this review while the experience was fresh in my mind. Looking for a value/budget hotel in London and reading the reviews was quite a daunting and depressing task. However City Continental (CC) is a gem. Location: Unbelievable close to Earl's Court underground, less than 2 mins. This comes in really handy after a long day of... more

This place typifies the old, rubbish London hotels that we, the poor unsuspecting tourists, end up in: our only crime to want for a reasonably priced room. Windows in my single room were old, old, old - a part of one came loose the last night. Unbearable noise emanated from an adjacent room the final night - I could hear... more

This is not a fancy hotel, but it does the job nicely if you are just looking for a good value clean and simple room in the Earls Court area. Because of its good value I would say it is above average for its class. I was in a twin room with a friend and my only complaint would be... more

Stayed at this hotel over the bank holiday Monday. We was going 2 see George Michael at Earls Court. Check in was very good, the girl was very helpful and give us directions to Earls Court. The room was very clean, just a bit on the small side. Earls Court was 2 min walk away and they have a nice... more

I stayed here 4 nights May 27, 2008 onward. The new ownership has changed name to City Continental London Kensington and you may get better price going directly to their own website, http://www.citycontinental-kensington.co.uk/. The Good: location very good because of Earls Court Tube Station and Pennywern is a quiet street compared to other hotels in this price range situated on... more

The hotel is conveniently located near to Earls Court tube station - giving convenient access from Heathrow. Eating places, launderette and pharmacy are nearby. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room and bathroom were clean and adequate size. We were given "breakfast in a box" because of dining room renovations which was a poor substitute. Even with a lift there were... more

As a regular visitor to Earls Court Area I thought I would try this hotel because the location for the exhibition Halls is excellent. I also booked in some of my staff... BIG mistake. The problems started on the first night, when asked "as it is 7.30pm is my car OK outside the office overnight" I was told that I... more
