Good walking distance from Victoria train station and easy to find. Secure entry and pleasant ambience inside. My room was on the 4th floor and there is no lift but totally fine. Room was compact but clean and even squeezed in an iron and ironing board. Some finishing inside the shower was a little tired and my room seemed very warm during the night (aircon/heating was quite noisy so turned this off before bed). Walls aren't very thick so I could hear the TV in the next room and their conversation very clearly but overall during the night it was very quiet and pretty comfortable.

The rate was good. The room was decent, but, it’s a bit misleading the way it’s presented in pictures because once you enter the room you discover that the room is very small and not much room for luggage, or hanging clothes, no bar fridge or microwave. As well, I have a bad hip and knees and we had to lug our luggage up four or five flights of stairs. I’m sure they could have put us on a lower level or ground level. For London though, it was adequate .

Dear Stuart,Thanks for the feedback. We are surprised that upon departure you reported that there were no problems and gave a score of 9 out of 10, whereas here on Expedia it is so low.Regarding the room, we are very sorry but we cannot do anything about it as it is the design, and you were assigned Superior which would be a higher category than your original booking which was economy.I kindly inform you that in the reception we have a microwave and a small fridge available if guests wish to cool or heat something.

When we first arrived we were stunned to be placed in a downstairs room that was so small we couldn’t open our suitcase. There were only three hooks for our clothes and you couldn’t get to one side of the bed without crawling across the bed. There weren’t any windows, though there was a very large skylight. We are in our 60s and 70s so no elevator made it more challenging. But a kind staff person arranged to change us to a ground floor room that was small but very comfortable and we were very happy with our stay. We used the laundry service that picks up and delivers which was a nice and reliable way to get our laundry done. We enjoyed the neighborhood coffee shops and restaurants.

Stayed here for a few days, staff were lovely, polite and very helpful nothing seemed too big of an ask. Was able to leave our luggage in the hotel after check in which was a great facility. Super clean and modern. Rooms were small but true to advertisement so no shocks or disappointment. Close to Victoria station which was handy. Only thing I would say which could have improved our stay was access to drinks or snacks such as bottles of water as we had to go out and get our own but nothing major. Would stay again. Thank you!

Clean, tiny room. Comfortable with nice amenities. If stairs are a challenge make sure to book a room on the first floor. Being an older building in London the stairs are steep and narrow especially when hauling your luggage.

The pictures look lovely and the hotel has obviously done some cosmetic work to the rooms. The bathroom was small, but clean and the shower had lots of hot water and pressure. Would have been nice to a have a shelf to put things on. The rest of the room, while did have some new tile/wall work, was so small and they should have spent money on new bedding and carpets. Our bedding had holes in from being worn through and the carpet was dingy. There was also zero space to put our suitcases or unpack clothes. The drawers under the bed were off their tracks and had obviously not been cleaned in ages. Full or crumbs, dust and skin flakes. Not a place I would stay again or recommend.

Avoid the underground rooms with no windows
I booked a Superior Double Room through Hotels.com thinking I would spend a little extra to get a nicer room for my girlfriend and I. There was nothing superior about our room on night 1. It was underground with no windows, no ventilation, and smelled like mold. Total fire hazard, and pretty sure that set up is illegal in the UK. The room was as wide as our queen bed and vibrated every 5-min when the tube went by. Thankfully the tube didn't run from 12am-5am, so we were able to get some sleep. After a disastrous night 1, they put us in the correct room night 2 which was fine and as advertised. I'm not even sure who to blame -- Hotels.com or the Mornington. Tough to stomach how much I paid to be in a dungeon with an angry girlfriend all night. Very disappointed.

We checked in at 9 pm from Canada, first the receptionist was too rude she didn’t even greet us. However we were tired and we just wanted the room, but when she told us it is in the basement we asked her to change it as per our reservation that we made a month earlier based on their advertising photos at Expedia, so she became more rude and disrespectful for no reason! We asked for manager she refused and said maybe tomorrow he will connect with you. We went to the room and The reality hits us that the room does reflect the photos in the ad or even the room description as “superior suite”! As it was like a dungeon in the basement with no windows, and you have to cross over the two beds to move to the bathroom! The toilets does has an empty toiletries the phone doesn’t work so we went back to ask her to fill it but she gave us a bottle to fill it for ourselves and asked us to return the bottle even if it’s empty! She didn’t want to collect it nor they have room service to take it! For the phone she didn’t even bother to give us an answer!…we were exhausted and went to sleep, the following day we had pre booked museums appointment and the manager didn’t call us or show as we asked for! For my fellow Canadians please be careful and don’t go there, they are horrible services and rooms doesn’t reflect any photos they have they are tiny to the extent of you can’t stand! I have been visiting London for the past 30 years and this is my worst experience ever for a hotel

Small but Perfect
My daughter and I stayed in a small but perfect room in this hotel. I booked this as it was very affordable in comparison to others in the area and we wanted to be close to the Apollo. I felt safe, both staying in the hotel and walking back from the show late at night. It’s a great spot to stay close to plenty of pubs and restaurants but far enough that it’s quiet, and only a short walk from Victoria (10-15 min walk). Hotel staff were friendly and helpful and the room was clean, comfortable and quiet.
