Guest Reviews
- Riccardo Pietro (8/5): -
- Pedro (3/5): Unbearably hot, do not recommend - Location is the only good part The room and the whole building was unbearably hot in may and the window barely opened. The staff didn't do anything to solve the problem, leaving only a fan to deal with the problem, but aside from being very noisy, all it did was recirculate unbearably hot air (over 28°C). We weren't able to sleep properly because of that.
It was very noisy too, with doors banging violently.
- Muhammad (1/5): Rubbish - Not much, average place Poor standard, no AC no ventilation no fans, shocking
- Charleston (7/5): - Clean, comfortable and good location. Electronic/digital keying
- Lisa (7/5): -
- Flavie (10/5): -
- Matěj (7/5): -
- Fernanda (1/5): - la peor experiencia que he tenido en un hotel de booking, voy a ingresar un reclamo formal. No hay lobby por lo que si tienes cualquier problema es imposible solucionarlo rápidamente, te hacen hablar con una IA a través de una aplicación, estuve esperando 2 horas para poder hablar con un humano porque la habitación estaba a 28° y no hubo una solución. Las ventanas estaban bloqueadas por seguridad. No pudimos dormir por el calor, y afuera hacían 8° pésimo servicio, la habitación estaba sucia y tardaron un día en solucionar el problema de la habitación, cuando nuestra estancia eran 2 noches. Ya no valía la pena buscar otro alojamiento.
- Antonio (6/5): - Buona colazione al bar. Difficoltà di comunicazione dato che in struttura non c'era personale
- DIMITRA (10/5): -
- George (4/5): Good value for money but bed was uncomfortable however location is ideal. - Location and was clean Took me around 2 hours to get in, it did not clearly state I needed a physical ID to complete check out and have it in person uploading a document wasn’t valid. I couldn’t get through on booking.com or directly through the site and had to wait on the phone for help to speak to a human. Very frustrating and inconvenient was NOT made clear when booking that this was needed. All the more harder when there is no check in desk which I knew but when you have these issues when you turn at the location what can you do a part from wait two hours like I did

- Clements (7/5): Fun but frustrating - Really convenient location for Olympia. Funky vibe to room which was full of useful kit. The best breakfast in London despite it being a 10min walk from the hotel. Very small room. Absolutely ridiculous over complicated method of gaining entry to room and hotel.
- Romain (10/5): C’était parfait - Le concept d’arrivée autonome sans accueil. Qu’il faisait super chaud dans la salle de bain et les couloirs de l’hôtel
- Sheridan (9/5): Great concept, Bad smell - The hotel itself is perfect.. love the concept and location as well as being beautiful and clean The whole hotel smells like a sewer and I say that nicely. If you left the bathroom door open the whole room smelt like a sewer. It was nasty and very very off putting after a couple of drinks out.. I nearly puked
- jose maria (9/5): - Ubicació i confort Bany podría ser una mica més gran
- Tea (8/5): -
- JOANNA (10/5): Świetny hotel, miło spędzony czas. :) - Pokój był czysty i dobrze wyposażony. Okolica była bardzo bezpieczna, cicha, spokojna, a jednocześnie dobrze skomunikowana z centrum.
- Kent (9/5): -
- Tatjana (8/5): -
- Alexander (1/5): A very uncomfortable stay due to the size of the room and the temperature of the building. - The location was okay, and the cleaning was largely acceptable (except the glasses). The decor is to an okay standard. The building was overly hot, the bed and pillows were very uncomfortable. The room itself was tiny and being in it was very uncomfortable because there was no space. Even the toilet was adjacent to the sink so you couldn’t properly sit on it. There was dust inside the wine glasses too.
- Veronika (10/5): -
- Yanick (1/5): I wouldnt recommend. - Not too far from westfield white city. Close to kensington olympia but you’d need to change stations when heading towards popular places.
Digital keys Very Small room
Leaking roof (most likely from bathroom upstairs). The bathroom door was inflated and deformed withe the water leaking from the roof which shows it has been happening for long and still not fixed
Shower drain seems congested, your feet would swim.
Hot water wasn’t available, had to report and have it fixed
No toothpaste, if you are coming from long trips, make sure you got 1.
No groceries around.
Not value for money
- laura (9/5): Ottima espetienza - Posizione buona . Struttura moderna e seppur tutto on line di facile utilizzo. Molto attento e presente lo staff seppur da remoto. Molto carino il biglietto di benvenuto scritto a mano che ci attendeva all'arrivo
- Urszula (8/5): Generalnie jesteśmy bardzo zadowoleni. - Bardzo pomocny personel. Skromnie, ale wystarczająco wyposażony pokój. Miło, że były przełączki do kontaktu i możliwość ładowania telefonu. Blisko do przystanku autobusowego. Wyższy stolik, bo ten ładny, ale niewygodny do jedzenia. Mogłoby być choć jedno krzesło z oparciem.

- LGett (6/5): - De ligging is goed. Vlakbij het openbaar vervoer, is heel handig. Veel lawaai tot in de nacht.
Hoofdkussen oncomfortabel/versleten.
Enkel heel warm water aan de lavabo.

- Viyan Anna (9/5): -
- Eiduks (10/5): -
- Bianca (7/5): Posizione ottima, stanze un po troppo calde - The position and and the availability and timeliness of responses to our requests :) It's too hot in the rooms; I recommend lighter-colored curtains to let in both light and air. The rooms are very small.
- Abbie (7/5): -
- Kiyah (7/5): - Nice property A bit of a smell because of the bins
- Beth (3/5): Wouldn’t stay again and don’t recommend - Convenient location for what we needed Difficult to check in, had to go back and forth via WhatsApp multiple times. Room was tiny, building itself was super hot. Bathroom layout terrible and windows were to thin I could hear people talking outside let alone all the sirens all night long

- Bauslaugh (9/5): -
- egelantier (10/5): - Bem localizado e perto de transportes públicos Uma funcionária da limpeza tentou entrar no quarto 2 horas antes do final da estadia sem antes bater à porta e certificar-se de que não estava ninguém.
Deveria evitar este tipo de situações.
- Dominik (9/5): -
- Dario (6/5): - La posizione della struttura è comoda per bus e metropolitana. La zona molto carina.
Camera ben riscaldata. Il check-in automatico mal funzionante. I codici di accesso sono arrivati solo quando siamo arrivati in struttura e quello della porta non funzionava quindi abbiamo dovuto recuperare una chiave fisica da una cassaforte dopo scambi di messaggi con AI e una telefonata.
Moquette delle aree comuni sporche.
Forte odore di fogna (stanza al piano terra).
Lavandino del bagno sopra il WC, impossibile sedersi comodamente.
- Vicky (8/5): Communication, comfort & Decor of room, location A* - 100% recommend - A brilliant design & use of space for a single en-suite room.
Loved Bobs has deals with other local business’s (breakfast for example)
Lived that the interior design was by local artists-designers etc The Hallway carpets have seen better days. The room was brilliant - first impressions getting to my room, i didnt know what to expect looking at the state of the Hallway carpets. Thankfully, room was really good.
- Ayoub (8/5): -
- Betsan (8/5): - Very clean. Good lication to olympia centre. Outside area a pleasant surprise. Nervous door opening with phone initially. Pillows not the most comfy.
- AIDA (7/5): -
- Helen (8/5): -
- Peggy (8/5): Prima! - Netjes en in een rustige straat, dicht bij het openbaar vervoer
- yasin (7/5): -
- Maksim (10/5): -
- Damien (1/5): - Location to Olympia Noisy, beds where very uncomfortable and very warm rooms with fans that do not work.
- Martina (8/5): In Ordnung - Gemütliches Zimmer mit allem was man benötigt (Wasserkocher, Mikrowelle, Besteck und Geschirr, Föhn sowie Yogamatte). Zimmer war sehr sauber und ansprechend eingerichtet. Schmudeliger Eindruck im Treppenhaus. Sehr penetrantes kontaktieren per Whatsapp zur Bewerbung irgendwelcher "Specials" bereits ab Buchung und währendessen.
Früstück kann man sich sparen, da man eh in umliegende Cafes (ich hatte eines zur Auswahl, das erst ab 9pm offen hatte) geht. Hätte ich das gewusst, hätte ich verzichtet und Flexibilität genutzt. Essen war jedoch fein.
- Jarosław (9/5): Udany. - Dodatkowe udogodnienia. Parasol, siatka na zakupu, kawa i herbata Na start jeden zestaw zamiast 2 ręczników. Pewnie ludzki błąd. Ślady pleśni na ścianie w pobliżu okna
- fred (4/5): Décevant - Situation Trop cher
Trop petit
Pas de clim
Très chaud ds les parties communes
Isolation phonique insuffisante
Fumée de barbecue du rez-de-chaussée qui rentre ds la chambre
- Beatrice (10/5): -
- Mark (4/5): Book Tour Blues - What I liked was that it was extremely close to my event. I also liked that the staff stayed in contact when I was delayed and made sure I could get inside. What I didn't like is that you weren't clear about how small the room was. I had an extremely difficult time getting in and out of the shower due to the small gap between the wall and the sink. Also the shower was really too small for me. Also, I thought I had ask for extra pillows (plural,)however, there were only two pillows total. Should have been at least three. The door to the garden was locked and couldn't access it. Why put a door there if you can't use it. There were no hand rails going down the stairs and the lift in the lobby didn't work for the entirety of my stay. Hauling suitcases up and down those stairs are a recipe for disaster. There were ants in the room. 2 or 3 a day, not a big deal, but shouldn't be there. And lastly, the cleaning staff had left a Q-tip behind the door when they were preparing my room. Didn't im0act my stay, but they weren't thorough in cleaning.
- David (8/5): The place was small but very nice, clean and a good location. - There was a problem with the late information. I tried to check in early but it was denied and then I was on a 9 hour flight with no info…and then could not get my e mails.
- Luísa (8/5): - Location and the coffee Very small room
- Rebecca (8/5): -
- Ν (8/5): Another good stay at Bob! I like that place. - Overall, Bob is always OK. It’s not the best, but by far not the worst either, and definitely not bad. You won’t find luxury there, not even close. But to be honest, it gives you everything you need to have a nice stay. This was my second time there, and once again it was a good stay. It even had solutions to charge my phone since I didn’t have a UK socket, and it even provided ear tips. I was very happy with my stay there. I can’t complain. No problems. It all worked well and i left happy and satisfied to be honest. My second time in BOB and again i was satisfied.
- Samoila (10/5): Close to Central London - Aproape de amenitati Rooms too close
- Oyarzún (4/5): Espacios reducidos. - La ubicación del hotel Ducha pequeña. Un poco estrecha la habitación. Me golpee muy fuerte en la repisa de la TV por el poco espacio para pasar a la ventana. No hay nadie a quien solicitar ayuda en forma presencial. El ascensor estuvo siempre sin funcionar.
- Gleb (8/5): - Расположение, понятность процедур Было немного душновато

- Fernando (8/5): -
- Mathew (8/5): Super cosy. Great location, everything you need for stay next to Olynpia! - Location and facilties in small room. Single bed unexpected and too small
- Sedef (8/5): -
- Claudia (10/5): - Las escaleras hacían bastante ruido, y se escuchaba cuando otros inquilinos llegaban por la noche.
- Katrien (7/5): Het was ok. - De frigo was praktisch, en de verzorgingsproducten waren top De tv was onlogisch vonden wij en het was zeer luid ookal was het raam toe
- Joanna (5/5): -
- Grahame (2/5): -
- Gladys (10/5): Fijn en goed gelegen qua openbaar vervoer - De accomodatie was goed gelegen, aangezien de verbinding met het openbaar vervoer perfect was. Daarnaast was het appartement knus maar fijn. De medewerkers zijn vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Niks!
- Julia (7/5): -
- MAURA (6/5): -
- Nebila (3/5): Did not expect this to be a completely hands-off apartment (which meant tiny room) where you can be. - Too busy noisy
- Farah (1/5): -
- Marta (10/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): - Location to Olympia was perfect.
Room compact but well thought out.
Black out curtains a dream. Would've liked a chair maybe as found myself having to sit on the bed to eat.
- Viacheslav (9/5): -
- Samantha (7/5): - Good location, clean and relatively well priced for central London. The luggage room and flexibility around checkin was good. Good for a short stay. The whole checkin system is online self service and we had trouble getting in touch with someone when we were locked out. The downstairs and luggage storage area was extremely hot for some reason and they were doing renovations while we were there.
- Peter (5/5): -
- Francesca (7/5): -
- Chelsea-Joy (8/5): Cute and cozy - Bob W London Olympia has a new approach to accommodation. Check-in and access to your room is all done via their app, which offers so many other features like gym access, breakfast bookings and recommendations for attractions in the area. They also leave some goodies in your room, and the fact that your stay is energy efficient also feels very positive. We were in the basement room, which was nice and cozy but for some reason it was also boiling hot (could be a laundry room nearby). We had to sleep with the fan on.
- Karolína (9/5): -
- Dmytro (4/5): -
- Alexander (9/5): Excellent - Very convenient location to travel to work in the city N/a
- Bertille (9/5): J'ai apprécié - L'emplacement Les voisins de chambres sont très bruyants ils claquent les portes à n'importe quel moment de la nuit cela vous réveille. Au point de vue chambre il fait très chaud à l'intérieur et quand on met en marche le ventilateur cela déclenche le détecteur de fumée
- Thomas (9/5): - Room was compact but cosy, good location easily accessible by multiple forms of public transport. Works were being undertaken but this was reflected in the price we paid. Would've been good to have some washing up liquid/sponges so that we could clean our dishes.
