When we arrived at the property, I told the manager I had left my phone on the plane and was upset because we had no idea how to get around. She had a fake accent she used when taking people to their rooms. (I heard her do it to another guest.) It was very exaggerated and though she spoke English it sounded like an Italian accent. (She was definitely not Italian.) However, when I went into the pub that evening, she treated me like she didn't know me. She and another waitress made me feel unwelcome. I got onto the internet to print out our trip information and tickets we bought. If you have never lost a phone, it is earth-shattering when overseas. I asked if I could print them on her printer. She reluctantly said yes. However, I was having a problem finding them. I asked if I could come in the next day and print them, and she said no. (Remember just hours before I had told her about not having a phone. Instead, I was given directions to a printer a few streets over. We were paying guests!! My husband and I ended up finding a cheap phone from a company in London. We used it for googling and for taking pictures. My husband insisted on keeping up with that phone so I wouldn't lose another one. The morning we left I picked up the phone to see what time it was. I put it back and my husband thought I had packed it and I assumed he did because he had had it the whole time. We are sure it was in the unmade bed where I put it. She said they didn't have it.

Reasonable price for last minute booking. Ideal location to stamford bridge. Lovely bar on site. Clean comfortable room. Issue in not being able to shut bathroom window (old rattling frames that got stuck on runners). Did call for assistance but it was very late and told to keep bathroom door shut to keep room warm.

I had noticed this hotel online a couple of years ago and planned to stay there one day. I eventually got my chance last week. I had been led to believe that this was a pub with a small number of unique and welcoming rooms upstairs. However, once I'd managed to navigate two narrow flights of stairs with heavy bags (with the help of the very amenable barman), it was clear that the accommodation was not quite what I imagined. The room itself was fine. However, there was a shared bathroom and toilet which was okay but not ideal.

We stayed at the Captain Cook for 2 weeks and had such a great stay. Public transport was easily accessible. The room was a great size with a comfy bed. The only recommendation I would have is to maybe just have signs reminding other guests to mind their noise level. There were guests that slammed doors so loudly without any regard for the rest of the guests. Other than that were already counting down the days for our next stay.

The place is well located in a quieter part of the city. The room is spacious and is exactly as advertised. The only downside was the windows don’t close thoroughly so you can hear street noise throughout the night, and especially in the morning. Overall good place for its price.

Not to be missed
Had I found this hotel years ago I would have kept to myself as it was so good, however as a 78 year old with not too many years left I am happy to pass on to others my recommendation for this first-class hotel. The room was clean and the bed comfortable, the reception was so friendly and helpful, on top of this the pub does fantastic Spanish food at reasonable prices. It is obviously a very popular hotel pub that you have to book weeks sometimes months in advance. Well done keep up the good work.

We stayed one night and really enjoyed it, and will definitely be back! The owner, service, and food was great. Everything was clean and quiet in the hotel part, but the restaurant was very lively and fun. She let us check in early also, which was awesome since we traveled a ways. My husband and I wait to come back and spend some more time here.

Nice stay
Nice size room, with decent facilities. A fan was put in due to the warm weather which was nice and sorted us out an iron for our clothes! Just on a personal preference, i dont particularly like two beds attached togrther to make a super king but they were comfy enough after a long day of walking round London. Nice location with easy links to the tube stations, a short 10 min walk to 2 and a little further for another. Would def stay again. Staff very friendly and polite and everything was nice, clean and easy to use.

Amazing bed.
Checkin was easy and super friendly, the room was nice but a little ropey around the edges. The bed was amazing & the added fan during this weeks temp was nice. Overall we enjoyed The Captain Cook Hotel. The only downside for us personally (which isn't the hotels issue) is to go anywhere central into London as a tourist you're faced with a bus bus walk or a bus train walk.

The Captain Cook was conveniently located in the quiet and lovely Fulham neighborhood. It sits above a pub and tapas place with great food and friendly service. Across the street is the Bedford Pub, which is a fun neighborhood pub with great drinks and sports on tv. The Captain Cook is also conveniently located to busses and underground, which make getting to anything in London convenient. The room was clean and updated with a very comfortable bed.
