When we arrived John welcomed us at the reception desk.
John was so helpful, warm and informative,
That we felt extended well looked after from the moment we entered the hotel. Nice touches in the room like sweets and popcorn. Very comfortable beds
We really enjoyed our stay at the apartments. Beatrice and George in particular made sure we felt at home and comfortable upon arrival. The rooms are lovely and couldn’t ask for much more. Location was perfect with ease of access to the rest of the city! Would definitely stay again
Great location abs a beautiful hotel! Our room has a little kitchenette that had everything we needed. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Have already recommended to friends and will be back again soon!
Stayed here for a week when I went to London. Absolutely gorgeous, inside and out. Staff were absolutely fantastic and super sweet. Everything was within walking distance, the Earls Court Station was a 5 minute walk from the hotel. They upgraded my room which I was so thankful for! The restaurant downstairs had a pretty decent selection of food and Tony, one of the managers at the bar was such a character; enjoyed talking to him when I was there. If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. They’re definitely going to be seeing me back here again!
Me and my wife really enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is beautiful and unique inside and is very close to the underground and many different restaurants. Would definitely recommend!
This was my second time staying at Ember Locke. I had an excellent first visit, so I was looking forward to staying again. I booked a City Studio. When I arrived for check-in, I was informed I was going to receive an "upgrade." However, that was not true. I was given a bigger studio on the main floor, but it was freezing, dingy, and smelly. I immediately went to the front desk to ask for the room type I had booked... Apparently, they had overbooked the City Studio. While the front desk staff changed my room the next day and provided a free breakfast, I felt I had lost a proper night's stay.
There is a girl who works at the cafe and breakfast who is not only totally incompetent. She was so disrespectful to me and my elderly companions. We were actually in shock because we have never experienced such poor service.
Then the manger came out with another 2 men and started attacking us. Accusing us of being in the wrong. When this girl stuffed up constantly.
She was nothing but RUDE and the way we were treated by her and the manager of the restaurant/cafe was wrong on so many levels.
The shame is that the front desk staff were great. It was only this bad experience with this girl that ruined our stay and hence I won’t be back.

Travelled with family, Travelled with partner, Travelled with group
we had 4 rooms for 7 days with family and friends we all had a good experience we had no issues the 2 lady's at the front desk we very polite and very very friendly all the other staff was also friendly location was close to the train and pubs convenance stores and quite the rooms are a fare size and equipped with everything a family needs good job to everyone that makes the hotel a 5 star
We loved it here! The room aesthetic made it so comfortable and welcoming to come back to after each day. It is also located in a great area but far enough away from the busy city. Will definitely stay here again.
