My partner and I were only at the Rockwell for an overnight stay while at Wimbledon but would definitely stay there again. 5 minutes from the tube station, the hotel is chic yet warm and welcoming. The service was excellent - we were taken to our room by the porter and just generally looked after. The room was a good... more

We stayed for 1 night after a 24 hour journey from Australia. Our room (201) was very pleasant - decent size, good storage, and a view of the garden courtyard. The shower was great (especially after a long journey) with nice toiletries from the White Company. The hotel was conveniently located to the Earl's Court tube station, and plenty of... more

I booked The Rockwell online with a special 3 nights for the price of 2, including breakfast. Upon arrival at the hotel after a long flight from San Francisco, I was told that the room would not be ready until 2PM. Fair enough; I had asked for early check-in but obviously couldn't demand it. We waited in the comfortable lobby... more

Stayed here for 3 nights whilst visiting London. Would definetly stay again. Great location, close to Earls Court Tube, good bus service and walking distance to museums. The staff were very helpful. The hotel was very clean and quiet. With a nice garden terrace. Would highly recommend to those who are after a small boutique hotel. more

My husband and I stayed here for a week in early May '09 upon recommendation of a friend in the hotel industry who is also a former Londoner. The Rockwell is perfectly situated in its South Kensington location. The tube is only block and a half away (meaning one can easily avoid the outrageous 60 pound cab fare from Heathrow... more

I only stayed one night, but wish I had stayed longer to be able to enjoy this hotel. First rate service - friendly, professional and efficient - good-sized room very comfortable and well appointed - close enough to the center to be convenient (buses outside and short walk to the tube) - and a great price. I will definitely be... more

Rooms are very clean and well decorated, cosy athmosphere, great location, good service. The staff is friendly and very helpfull especially the charming young woman named Rita. She welcomed us upon arrival and helped us a lot with directions,... more

Very well located, rooms are wide and full of light, very clean, with sophisticated look. Large new bathroom with shower (perhaps a little too small for a fully built person like my husband) really nice and well equipped with a real hair dryer (!!) We had wonderful continental breakfasts but also a wide selection of English traditional breakfast dishes is... more

The design of the hotel is stylish and modern. I stayed here for 2 nights in a single room. The room was small but had nice oak furnishings. The bathroom was also very sylish although cramped. I stayed on the 4th floor at the back of the hotel...away from busy Cromwell road. The window was cold and drafty, but I... more

I've stayed at this hotel twice, once for business and once for pleasure. It's a nice little hotel with generally helpful staff, a nice lobby and a pleasant restaurant. It's quite close to the Earls Court Underground station, making it convenient to get into town and out to Heathrow. It's a good value for London; I'd go back. more
