My husband and I loved our 5 night stay! The area was convenient to anywhere in London and the room was the perfect size for us both. My only complaint is the bathroom - the toilet flush needed 3-4x to get anything down, the sink and bathroom didn’t drain and water from the shower went everywhere! This didn’t affect our trip at al, just something for the property to look into. We will stay here again our next trip to London!

The Ember Locke is very close to the Earl's Court tube stop, making getting around quite simple. The kitchen in our room was exceptionally well-equipped, and perfect for our small family. The staff were unfailingly courteous. The hotel is quiet and well-maintained. Be aware that the google map walking instructions from Earl's Court underground show an impossible road crossing, but you can visually spot that and correct.

Only a one night stay. The staff was absolutely wonderful, phenomenal customer service, and very welcoming. I would love to go back and spend a few nights to experience of the activities/evens that they host. The room and bathroom were both very spacious.

I had never previously been to Ember Locke, and will return every time I'm back. A quiet, lovely retro vibe. I felt like I was in a time warp back to the 70's, in all the very best ways. Comfy bed, handy kitchen, even a washer/ďryer combo in my Garden Studio suite. The lobby is beautiful and cozy, making me feel right at home. Thank you also to the kind staff! You are a wonderful group of people! Xo from 🇨🇦

Beautiful hotel, friendly staff. The bed was comfortable, and the location was excellent. The bathrooms could be a little nicer- I had some drainage issues with the shower and a few bugs. But they did upgrade my room free of charge, and in general, the room was very clean and comfortable. I would stay again.

Unique decor that looks just like the photos; well-equipped (especially the kitchenette); bed was comfortable; everything was clean. Great location — had a bus stop right outside, was within walking distance to multiple Tube stations (including Earl’s Court, which offers step-free access and was one direct trip from Heathrow Airport via the Piccadilly Line). Also within a stone’s throw of Earl’s Court Road, with plenty of supermarkets and restaurants. Room lighting was just a bit too dim for my liking, otherwise had a wonderful stay.
