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.

The room was clean, but the shower only had shampoo and body wash sachets, as opposed to a dispenser, the wall mounted fan was clearly on it’s last legs, and the curtains weren’t able to be expanded out far enough to really block out all the light. The lobby has seen better days, and could definitely use updating. Overall I would say this hotel is ok for a night or two, but would look for somewhere with nicer amenities for a longer stay

I have stayed in many rooms in the hotel with various noise levels I found that while humid the basement room #1 was the quietest. The front desk man is always friendly and helpful. If you arrive early as I almost always do they will give you a room if available.

Excellent for small family.

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.

Tiny but it works!

Nice, clean, and inexpensive - just my kind of accommodations. I was one of the lucky few whose flight was cancelled at Heathrow towards the end of March due to a fire. I jumped online to hotels.com and booked this quickly because all the hotels around Heathrow were full or now gouging people for rooms. Not this place. I booked the tiniest room I've ever stayed in. The single room I booked is not recommended for longer stays. There was barely room enough to stand next to the bed. My walk-in closet is bigger than this room. But you know what? It was clean, quiet, and for one night, considering the circumstances, it worked. I can't speak for the bigger rooms. Good job, Notting Hill Gate!

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.

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.

The hotel is let down by the whole place being very dated and could really do with being updated throughout. It a shame because the staff were fabulous, the rooms were clean with towels and complimentary drinks refreshed daily. We were originally allocated room 20 which was situated on the 3rd floor up a narrow staircase to the rear of the building, there was nothing wrong with the room but I found the staircase very claustrophobic. We were able relocate to room 16 with an outlook to the front of the property and although this room was smaller it met all our needs, a bonus for me was being able to open the sash windows fully. This place is basic so don’t expect a boutique experience, but it fits the bills for a few nights away.

Book for bare minimum, expect nothing else

So many stairs to our room with no elevator or offer for help with our suitcases. Tiny room that desperately needs updating and touch ups. No microwave or fridge in room, but there was instant coffee and tea which was nice. Super loud even from the 5th floor, the noises from the street woke us up. They have all the bare minimum requirements for a decent stay, so if you are going based off of price, it is fine and decent location in Notting Hill. But I wish I had just gone a bit higher in price to have a more comfortable experience.
