Fodor's Expert Review easyHotel South Kensington
14 Lexham Gardens, London, Greater London, W8 5JE, England
London's original "pod hotel" has tiny rooms with a double bed, private shower room, and little else—each brightly decorated in the easyGroup's trademark orange and white (to match their budget airline, easyJet). The reception desk doesn't offer much in terms of service, and everything costs extra: room cleaning during your stay, use of television, Wi-Fi, and even a window. The concept is undeniably a hit—it's fully booked months in advance (the earlier you book, the cheaper your room rate) and several branches have opened (the website details locations)—just don't expect any frills. Like, none.
PROS
- amazing rates
- safe and decent-enough space
- good location
CONS
- not for the claustrophobic—rooms are truly tiny and most have no windows
- six floors and no elevator
- Wi-Fi is not included in room price
