Great Stay
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 Rockwell was great, very comfortable & convenient location. Staff was helpful & accommodating. My biggest concern choosing a hotel was the internet, since I had several work calls. The wifi signal was strong & stable and I was able to take all my zoom calls without any issues!

Best Hidden Gem in Kensington
Absolutely loved my room and its quaint little patio. The room and bathroom were huge and well appointed. Perfect location minutes from the tube, in the heart of it all. Staff were friendly and accommodating. This is my new home in London.

Position was excellent - within walking distance of many eateries and transportation. The staff were friendly and helpful, able to assist with the many questions of new travellers. Despite being on a main road, you could not hear the traffic at all. Bed was comfortable. Room quite small however, and some fixtures need fixing. Otherwise an excellent stay.
