Staff was wonderful! Room was fine . Neighborhood good and good location. . I only would have liked a different type of shower head. It was not a big problem though and I enjoyed my stay there.

This was my third time staying at The Rockwall and all of my experiences have been very positive! As a boutique hotel the singles are small (as others are in the area are as well), but manageable. It's so convenient to the Tube and with many walkable food options and attractions, there is no need to be cooped up in the room.

Nice hotel with friendly staff. The room was a bit small, especially if you have luggage. However, the location is great, with easy access to public transportation.

The second time that I have been fortunate to stay here. It was excellent in every way on both occasions, and has a splendid location, with easy access to everywhere a visitor likely to want to go. We will certainly be back!

Very good stay, staff very polite and helpful, slight issue during check-in as the cleaners had missed the room 🙈, but the staff were very quick to sort it out and a free complimentary breakfast for the trouble. Very nice hotel, great location would definitely stay here again 👍

We loved our stay at the rockwell. The hotel is located a short walk from the local tube station (Earls Court). Although it is on a main road it was quiet inside. The reception area is very boutique and beautiful. The staff were lovely and helpful and our deluxe double room had a mezzanine floor with the bed upstairs, which we loved!

Generally ok. Although Bar was under stocked, breakfast was average and my room was directly next to the lift so noisy very early on a Sunday morning! Bed was super comfy though!

Really lovely room and a great price for London. The room was spacious for the area and it was in walking distance of tube stations and Hude park

Really enjoyed my stay and very grateful to the lovely team at the Rockwell for taking care of me on a work visit to London. Much valued and would book again.

I really enjoyed my stay. The room was quite large by London standards for a good price. Earl’s Court has a lot of restaurants with food from around the world and the Tube was convenient. If you are a Chelsea fan going to the Bridge…this hotel is perfect.

The staff were just excellent at the Rockwell. They couldn't be more helpful. There were a few niggles, the shower was tricky, but sorted the next day. The hairdryer didn't work and was replaced immediately and milk was put in the room. All in all, great value for money.
