Best Western Burns Hotel

I came to like this hotel. On paper, a cheap hotel in London has the potential to be an ordeal. However, after four nights there, I was surely pleased. The hotel is located a couple of minutes walk from Earl's Court tube station - in my opinion, the best way to get around London. It is down a quiet road off Earl's Court Road. There is next to no traffic with consequent quietness. Having arrived there, the receptionist pleasantly and quickly processed my reservation. Getting to the room involved using the ancient elevator to... more

The room was small and basic, but perfect for a night's sleep after a long day on the town. Not the sort of room you'd want to spend hours in relaxing - but you are coming to London to see the sights, aren't you, not the inside of a hotel room! The location is a huge plus - on a relatively quiet (I said "relatively" - this is London. If you want quiet go to the countryside) side street just around the corner from Earls Court tube station and with lots of eating and drinking options nearby. I got a rate of 55 pounds including... more

Good location- a 2 min walk from Earls Court. I paid £40 for room for Friday before Xmas from Lastminute which inc. full english breakfast. Our room was small but clean and comfortable and at the back of the hotel so was extremely quiet. If you are quite a large person you will struggle to fit into the bathroom as very small. Ideal for a night away in the city.

I stayed at the Burns Hotel last week and I can truly say that I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel and the location. I had not stayed in the Earls court/Kensington area before. The nearest underground station is a 1 minute walk from the hotel and you can get to piccadilly circus or covent garden in 15 mins. My room was small, but all London hotel rooms are, but very comfortable. It was great to be able to have room service when I returned late at night. I arrived too late for breakfast, but the staff were very friendly and still let me... more

In Canada I read there was a sale at the Burns and stayed one night, all I could take, for 69 pounds. The street noise was hellish. The room was stifling and it was impossible to open the window. The room was extremely small with a hostel- sized bed. I could not put the chain on the door because it was broken. One light didn't work. The reception people were lovely. It was the hotel itself that was a big disappointment. I would never stay there again. I fled in the morning.

Stayed hear for one night on 16/12. Location was great, we were at Earls Court for a concert. The reception is very nice, unfortunately the corridors and room we stayed in wasnt as good, carpets worn and torn (stuck down with tape) and the room was smelly - ok maybe my fault for booking a smoking room but it was quite bad, the bathroom was reasonably clean but lacking in space and needs a good scrub in places. Breakfast was very nice and reception staff friendly. Cant help but think maybe could have got better for £80 a night

We stayed in a twin room (#401) for three nights. The hotel rate was pretty good - 75 pounds a night including a full breakfast. The hotel is in a convenient location - a short walk from the Earl's Court Underground station as well as a short walk from some pubs and food stores. We really only used the room to sleep and shower. It was an average room by European standards...pretty small, but perfectly functional. The bathroom was tiny, but again, functional. The room was clean and tidy and the beds were comfortable. The hotel itself is run... more

I stayed 3 nights with 2 adult daughters in a room with 3 single beds - it was on the lower level at the front of the hotel, so the foot traffic along the sidewalk was a bit noisy late in the evening as the windows were open for air as there is no central air & it was a warm week - but other than that it was clean, large bathroom, comfortable. pleasant safe area, we took cabs everywhere as we weren't comfortable with the tube so soon after the trouble they'd had. we'd stay here again happily. didn't use the food services at the hotel.... more

We stayed at the Burns hotel for two nights while attending an exhibition, as it is very handily situated for both Earls Court and Olympia Exhibition Centres, and is also just around the corner from Earls Court tube. The hotel is on a quiet side street, overlooking Barkston Gardens, and there is a good selection of pubs and restaurants nearby for dining out. Our room was at the back, and was blissfully quiet. Although the room was a little on the small side, it was pleasantly decorated, the beds were comfortable and the bathroom clean... more

We stayed in this hotel on two occasions - one night on the 1st August and then we came back after a 2 day trip to Paris, and stayed for 2 more nights. We were pleased with what we paid for - on arrival in London at 6am, after a 17 hour flight, they kindly checked us into a room immediately, even though the official check-in time was 2pm - this was free of charge to us (we didn't have to pay the previous nights' rate like some other hotels). Our room was very small, but it was clean and comfortable. The decor was relatively modern as... more
