This was a great and comfortable stay at the Cura. We stayed for six nights. The staff were very helpful, the breakfast was great, the room was clean and well decorated. Overall, it was a great part of our trip to London!
Clean, soundproofed rooms, spacious comfortable beds.
The staff were very polite and kind, very helpful as well.
Breakfast was very good, my only recommendation would be to add more fish or veggie options, as there was only one kind of fish, and lots of pork dishes.
The hotel’s location is great, it’s just 3 min walk from the Earl’s Court underground station, yet the street it’s located on is super quiet and safe.
I will definitely recommend this hotel!
The location was fantastic. All of the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the food in the restaurant. The kids really enjoyed the bunkbeds in the family room.
Great location, nice room, however no counter space in bathroom for private toiletries, and pillows are very hard and uncomfortable. No vegan options in restaurant, however many close by that were absolutely delicious! Very clean hotel and nice staff!
The staff were super friendly and helpful. The room was clean and nicely decorated. Breakfast was also good with a decent selection to start the day.
Overall good value – would definitely stay here again.

Loved the unique artwork and funky vibe, but the shower had rust and mold, and didn’t drain very well. Staff were excellent but don’t use the hotel to call a cab- catch one at a nearby street for quicker service. Location works well if you’re able to use tube or bus into central London.

Be warned, I received an unknown charge on my card from the hotel. Best to keep an eye on your card charges after your stay.
The hotel was fine. The room (320) we received was very narrow and some places were tight to walk through. The plug of the bathtub did not seal, the trim of both bathtub faucets were broken. The bathroom had limited counter space and hooks. The bed was comfortable. Sound insulation of the room was good. Breakfast was good. Fitness center was functional.
We switched to the Cura from another hotel that was unacceptable. We were so relieved to stay here; it was clean, comfortable, and safe. I would definitely recommend this hotel to other travelers, especially Americans who are used to the included amenities like coffee pot in room and air conditioning.
The hotel is well decorated and recently updated. Location is 5 star.
However they have some guest rooms on the basement with no natural light which is weird. And the basement hallways stink of an unbearable stench.
Very polite staff. My early check- in was accomodated as requested. Clean.
Very convinient location.

We we're able to check in 2 hours early with no extra charge, the room was great, spotless and great views! Friendly staff, especially at breakfast which was fresh and delicious. Excellent location, would return.
Had a great Time! Very nice room, hotel, breakfast, location, staff ! It’s been recently refurnished. The breakfast area has huge Windows With a lot of lights and view in the beautiful street !
Everything was perfect for us.
The staff at checking were wonderful - Constantine and Zoro - very pleasant and friendly.
Breakfast buffet was tasty except the ‘scrambled eggs’ - the croissants were amazing
But the two servers did not properly explain how it worked - we completely missed the front part of the buffet which had the fruit and juices and cereals.
We didn’t t get coffered coffee
And when asked for water was told to get it myself
I would suggest adding eggs to order
(Not just poached with hollandaise. )
Rooms small but tastefully decorated!
Cons:
Check in was not the best. I was initially told to carry my own heavy bags up the stairs but I pushed for a bell man and eventually he came.
My stay included breakfast and the man checking me claimed it did not, until I spoke to another staff member who confirmed it was indeed included.
Old bathroom.
No mirror on table to do makeup so bring your own or do it standing.
Elevator does not require keycard so anyone can access room floors.
Pros:
Most of the staff is very helpful.
Room is clean and modern with Ac
Safe area
GREAT location. I’ve been to London 5 times and this one is unbeatable.

Room was nice but bathroom tiny & shower dated with mildew etc. Stairwell musty & smells but we had to use as there was only 1 small elevator. The restaurant and main areas are gorgeous.
