The hotel is in a great location, tucked away but not far to shops etc. Beautiful hotel, rooms a bit small but very good. The room my children had was the better one, huge walk-in shower, salon type hairdryer etc. Our room was a bit smaller and just a bath with shower over type thing. The only problem was that we had specifically asked for rooms as close as possible but were given rooms on different floors. Not a major problem as my teenagers are old enpough to trust but i would still prefer them to be on the same floor at least.Sadly there were children in the room above us that had been left alone and they spent most of the night running and jumping on the beds and also all around the corridors, up and down the stairs etc!!

I enjoyed my stay very much at the K & K George Hotel. The staff was very friendly, the room was very clean, simple, & elegant. The heated bathroom floors was a plus especially since I am always cold. The location was amazing as a tourist I loved that the tube was near the Hotel as well as great places to eat in addition to minimarts for muchies. I would highly recommend a stay at this wonderful Hotel.

Nice hotel in quiet street only two minutes walk from Earls Court tube station. Very friendly staff and excellent breakfast. I will use this hotel again.

Our room was on the fourth floor which did not afford a view but the room itself was very clean. Everything in the room, from bedding to bathroom fixtures felt as though it had just been purchased. The decor was 'modern' and we had a kettle, a small fridge, and a small wall safe, which was handy. There are 5 computers for internet and a cosy gym room with sauna. Breakfast was not included in our arrangements but that was just as well since although they rave about it, it costs15 pounds. If you stay there, just walk down Spear Mews street, which is just one block, and have breakfast at Bench'os for only 5 pounds. They have a wonderful eggs, toast, mushrooms, sausage, and thick sliced ham deal that kept us going until late in the day. They open at 6:30am. The hotel has a laundry service but there is coin laundry down the street if you prefer. (Have a lot of coins!) Tube station in Earls Court was two minutes away by foot. That was a great help. We changed money at the Post Office, just up the street from Bencho's towards Earls Court. They don't charge a fee and give good rates. Masala Zone was right there too, and so drop in if you like Indian. Another reviewer mentioned having gone to the Kabob House which was fantastic so we tried it and agreed. I thought it was all about meat but they have very tasty vegetable dishes too. In all the Hotel was an excellent value and immaculate inside and out. We felt safe and happy and everything we needed was right outside.

Our family of 4 stayed at the K+K Hotel George, booking 2 neighboring but not connected rooms. The hotel is just 2 blocks from the "Earl's Court" tube (subway) station. Very convenient - we rode the underground from Heathrow rather than taking a taxi, which would have been extremely expensive. The Earl's Court tube station provides access to 2 different subway lines, so it was easy to get anywhere we wanted in London in a reasonable time. A variety of restaurants are within walking distance, as are grocery/convenience stores/newstands. The staff was friendly & helpful in giving directions, booking bus tours, recommending restaurants, etc. Rooms were clean and seemed to have been updated within the last couple of years. Rooms were small as are almost all European hotels, but there was plenty of closet space & shelving. The bathrooms are extremely small - it was not possible for 2 of us to stand at the sink at the same time. However, they did have a full tub, not just a shower. The beds were not the most comfortable - mattresses a bit hard - but not the worst we've ever experienced. We did not eat in the hotel restaurant. Breakfast "buffet" was expensive (US30) and not all that appealing--just the standard "English breakfast" you can get anywhere. I'm not fond of eating baked beans for breakfast, so I was content to get a coffee & bagel at Starbuck's only 1 block away. Surrounding neighborhood was generally well maintained and fairly quiet, and we felt safe at all times. Elevators are tiny and slow, but supposedly being replaced this summer. I would certainly stay here again.

I think this hotel is a real hidden gem. Very modern and clean, and very efficient - I suspet something to do with the Austrian connection? If you can get a good rate its well worth while a visit, so many London hotels are way overpriced and well past their best. One minor complaint - the in room menu said there is reduced availability of food between 2.00 and 5.30 - well its certainly reduced, because there is nothing available as the kitchen is closed.

A large business conference dominated the hotel but service was crisp and professional. Checkout, however, was chaotic since business groups refused to queue up for the three front desk staff to process their room charges. Breakfast was wonderful. Even with the conference attendees all eating at the same time, the dining room staff managed to clear tables quickly so that the wait was short. The foods were always replenished so that the full assortment of items on the buffet was for one's choosing. Air conditioning was working but at a feeble output, in my estimation. The summer heat may prove to be too much for K&K George Hotel's system. It was warm outside when I was there in London, but not scorchingly hot, and the room was cooled somewhat but not crisp- cool.

Booked a triple room for myself, wife & adult daughter. Room, as expected, was small - 3 single beds with 2 pushed together. Bath also small, but recently remodeled. My bed was comfortable, but my wife thought hers was lumpy. We were on the 5th floor facing the rear of the hotel. They were replacing a lift during our stay, so after 8am there was construction noise. 2 remaining lifts were working - the new one was nice, but small. The old one you could literally get only 4 people in it - very small. It took some time to get the temperature cool enough in the room, as we turned off the heat completely then it was fine. Location of the hotel was great, on a quiet street, but only a block from many pubs, food stores and the Earls Road Tube stop. (3 min. to tube stop) The included buffet breakfast was good: scrambled eggs, (very undercooked for my liking) sausages, bacon, beans, mushrooms, 4 kinds of dry cereal, yogurt, fish, raw salmon, fruit, toast, 4 types of juices & champagne. Service was good at the buffet, save for one day when they didn't clear our dishes & give refills on coffee. Front desk was efficient and friendly. There is an odd thing with the room key, you get only one that is 2 pieces of plexiglass with a device inside that unlocks your door. They ask that you leave the key at the desk when you go out, which worked OK. I would stay here again if the price was right.

I stayed at the K+K George for 5 nights while visiting in London. The hotel rooms were very small but extremely clean. The beds were tiny and were not very luxurious but they served there purpose. The biggest plus about the hotel is its location. While located outside of London, the K+K George is within a block of the Earl's Court tube stop. We used the underground every day to go sightseeing in London and Westminster.

The hotel was very easy to find and is a superb choice if you are going to a concert at Earls Court like we did. It is literally around the corner, perfect! The hotel is a beautiful old building with modern refurbishment and I felt it was excellent value for money.

Overall we were satisfied with the hotel. The location was very convenient for the Earls Court tube stop and restaurants, post office, etc. on Earls Court St. Our room was adequate, the bathroom was very nice, very clean but small. Some things did not work at the beginning of the stay, - the telephone, our safe, but were fixed in a timely manner when brought to the attention of the staff. We never did have internet access in our room, so taking our laptop was worthless but we did use the internet downstairs without a problem. We did not have a problem checking in but others were not so lucky. They waited all day for a room and still didn't have one at 6:30p.m. The staff was always pleasant and helpful.

The K & K Hotel George was a great hotel for our 5 night stay in London. Excellent location 1/2 block from Earls Court Tube Station (15 min to main attractions). 3 great mini stores around hotel for snacks/sandwiches and light bfast. Local restaurants galore so you can save some money in a very expensive city. Stayed in Twin room (2 twin beds for double occupancy). Beds are twins but room is plenty big enough for an average stay. Nice big closets. Nice space near door for jeans,sweaters,etc. Bathroom is very small and shower only has one glass door (very weird). Even with that no water reached the main floor. Just have to take a shower in a smaller space than at home. Rooms were kept very clean each day we wanted service. Only negative which wasn't really a negative is that this is a German Hotel chain so half of the channels on the TV were in German (no big deal since it was vacation) Big Negative!!!!!!!!! DON'T BUY BFAST PERIOD!!!! At current rates it's 28.00 us per person. They will entice you with a buy one get second half price coupon but don't do it. If you want the "English Bfast" visit one of the local places on Earls Court Road or do what we did. After one blah day of McDonalds (Right next to the station) we went to Sansbury's and brought some bagels and bfast pastries 2 bottles of Tropicana and were plenty filled for the day. Again if you can fit this hotel in your budget do it. It also has central Air Conditioning which was needed during last weeks "heatwave"

While not a seasoned business traveler, I have traveled to overseas several times and stayed in a variety of moderate-priced hotels. I scrutinize hotel reviews. That said, my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay - yes the breakfast was expensive (ask for a deal on check-in and they will give you a 1/2 price voucher for the 2nd meal in your party), but it was delicious and a nice option for at least one of the days we were there. The desk staff was professional, courteous, and glad to help with tourist bookings. The rooms were small but perfectly adequate and neatly appointed. The bathroom was small, clean, and "euro-chic." The hotel is very convenient to the Earls Court tube stop, which put us close to everything we wished to see in London. We enjoyed being within walking distance to reasonably priced good food such as Wagamama (Japanese), Masala Zone (Indian), and MacDonald's (for a quick breakfast). We look forward to returning to London and will definitely consider the George as an option.

The K+K is excellent in every way. The location is quiet, it's easy to get to by all means of transport. It is exceptionally clean and the rooms are light and fresh. The atmosphere is always good and the gardens are a delight. My wife loves the statue in the garden!

Hotels in London have become very expensive. This one is no exception, although it is a rather nice place. But 12 Pounds per person for breakfast is ridiculous. And the rooms, especially the single rooms (we had booked one single and one double) are small. The location of the hotel is good: not very central, but in a quiet back street and yet very near the Earl's Court tube station where one can catch a Circle Line or a District Line train as well as the Piccadilly Line. Some of the staff were very friendly and helpul, others far less so. One receptionist even refused to book a table in a restaurant. And one day one of the rooms was not made up, although there would have been plenty of time. (We were absent from 10 am till 4 pm.) At least the person in charge presented her excuses. It's possible that we would stay in the hotel again provided we find a good deal in the internet.

Very nice hotel which makes a change for London. Did not eat in but Breakfast at £11 was a bit steep. Last time I stayedI could park my car next door but this time had to park at Seagrave Road carpark which is a good walk away especially withluggage. Hotel issued me with an £18 voucher but could do without the hassle. Apparently the hotel will have its carpark backearly next year when nearby building work is completed. Watch out for Traffic Wardens - you cannot park until 10.30 pm in theevening and this is enforced. I saw dozens of digital photos being taken of cars parked earlier. Very convenient for Earls CourtExhibition Centre and there are dozens of eateries and resturants within walking distance.

This was an excellent hotel which was superbly positioned very close to Earls Court tube station. The staff were extremely friendly and courteous and the rooms were fantastic with all amenities we would have asked for. The free wifi access was great for my daughter who brought her laptop and was therefore able to entertain herself!Overall, I was very impressed and whilst the rack rate may have been a bit steep for me, the Late Rooms rate we secured made this excellent value. We would definitely stay here again and recommend the hotel to others.

The hotel is a few steps from the high street with restaurants and shops, very close to the tube and Earl's Court exhibition centre. Room was roomy enough, bright and airy and comfortable. I would definitely stay again.

Never stayed in Earls Court area before but an ideal location for getting around London. The hotel receptionists were very friendly and helpful. Rooms were very clean and comfortable with nice furnishings etc. The garden area was a pleasant surprise, very nice area to sit and have that first cup of coffee in the morning. Breakfast was outstanding and waiting staff were 100% Customer Focused in offering assistance and anything you needed - a pleasure
