Typical London pension - medium filthy, sour smell from the carpet, minimal bathroom but friendly staff. On the good side were the breakfast and the excellent location close to the Metro station Holland Park. All in all - good value for the money if you live with the fact that it isn´t superclean. More

I stayed for a 5 nights whilst on a working trip. The location is superb for access to a multitude of famous/popular sites. The Notting hill carnival was out of this world (but thankfully it is only 2 nights a year). The good points far outweigh the bad. Yes.. some furniture is old. Maybe milk in fridge was off.. but...

The whole place reeked of a sewage odour, stairs dirty, curtains torn and dirty, in fact the whole place was filthy. TV and radio did not work, Shower and toilet was too small. Very old and dirty furniture in room. Would not recommend this place. Is in a very good area with easy access to bus and tube and walking... More

Our first impression when we arrived was the following : - Bad Smell everywhere in the hotel including the room - Dirtiness : months-old dust, armchairs that probably had been picked-up from the street and were full of dog(?) hair. The bed mattress had large stains of what seemed to be blood. - Furniture and appliances were from the 1980's... More

In great need of paint, new carpets, steps to entrance hazardous, bathroom on landing shocking, bedroom dusty, dog hair all over chairs. Got to bed around 11:45pm then it all started. The noise from upstairs - I think... More

We were greeted at the door by the owner, she was very friendly and helpful but the smell that hit us when we arrived was disgusting. The location was perfect beside the Tube and some shops but after 1 night here we had to move. The only issue being the Smell. More

The Notting Hill Guest House encompasses everything an independent traveller would want from a low cost Bed & Breakfast! Where to start? Firstly the owner would have gone to virtually any length to help me enjoy my stay. Not only is she a mind of information, but Bea exudes a warmth that is secont to none. The rooms are large... More

I came across the Nottinghill Guesthouse in the visitlondon.com website and it truly added value to our winter holiday in London! The location of the guest house is its exceptional value, a bus stop in front of the house and an underground tube station practically next door. The neighborhood is simply great too, you'll find almost everything you need around... More
