I stayed at this hotel for a family trip, and while the location was very convenient for our activities, the overall experience was a mixed bag. The room quality was disappointing as it felt outdated and not very clean. The service had its highs and lows, but I found the dining experience quite poor, especially the breakfast options. Overall, I'd suggest looking elsewhere if you're seeking a better value for your money.

My stay at the Novotel London West had several highlights, including pleasant staff and great access to public transportation.

Still, good breakfast options and clean facilities made my visit worthwhile.

The hotel provided a decent experience overall, particularly for attending events at the Hammersmith Apollo, which is just a short walk away. While the room cleanliness and basic amenities met my needs, I did find the stay somewhat costly compared to the value offered. The breakfast was adequate, but the dining area was often crowded and in need of a clearer organization. Service from the staff varied; some were attentive while others seemed overworked.

My family and I stayed at this hotel recently, and while we appreciated the understanding staff and the location's convenience, we faced significant issues regarding the cleanliness of our room and the response to our needs. The dining experience was pretty good, but overall, the hotel didn't quite meet our expectations, especially given the price we paid.
