The room was so clean, bed was super comfy and lovely in-room supplies. However, it was a hot day and the room trapped heat so be prepared to be warm if you go during the summer

Great location and great room. Bathroom very tight even if you are small. The room was exceptionally hot and never cooled down. Would say again but not in a heatwave.

There is No staff, the place of toilet is too small, room is very small
Verified review

8/10 Very good

These compact rooms boast good design and a clean, economical layout, and that was true for the most part. However, the bathroom requires serious gymnastics just to sit on the toilet, as the sink in room 6 is positioned so close that it presses against your chest. This is not merely poor design, it verges on a code violation. Someone was clearly not paying close enough attention during construction. That said, the bed was clean and comfortable, and the heating worked very well.

8/10 Very good

Great location and exceptionally clean room. Perfect for my stay. The only downside was the last night patrons across from the room and the floor below slamming doors, running up and down the stairs, playing loud music and making so much noise into 4 AM, treating the establishment like a fraternity dorm. The downside of such a hotel is that it’s impossible to address rowdy patrons as it happens. This situation notwithstanding the rooms were perfect for my stay.

Location was great, close to the train station. Property was very hot, window only opened a crack but they were responsive & let us know where a fan was that we could use. Just a bit cramped for us.

Used WhatsApp to communicate with Bob the host, and he was very attentive. We enjoyed our stay very much. Great location for tourists as it is closed to the Kensington Olympia underground station.

Was a great apartment for my friends and I to stay at for NYE. Location is great. Close to tube services
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Really enjoyed my stay at Bob W London Olympia! Clean and compact room that’s just enough for two people. Despite being central, I found that it was quiet and relaxing at night, offering a real home-away-from-home feel. Walking distance to a bus stop and tube station which is a plus! Only note for anyone staying here is that if you’re using Vodafone, be aware that the mobile signal around the hotel can be quite weak, which might make the online check-in a bit tricky. However, once you're close to the entrance, you can easily connect to the hotel’s Wi-Fi using the password provided in your check-in instructions so that makes it easy to check-in!

Efficient and modern

Efficient hotel in a great location. Unfortunately my room was extremely hot (end of April), a fan was provided which alleviated it to some degree.
Verified review

6/10 Good

A short stay is okay.

The place was very clean and that was great. The bed was comfortable, wonderful. Communication was good. Now, If you are from the USA then the place is too small. No table to rest your food or anything else. No chair to sit other that on the bed. It is good for overnight or the weekend stay, not for a 10 days vacation.

Good stay in Bob W Olympia, great response from the team on WhatsApp. Nice facilities in the room, clean and comfortable. Just one note if you are very sensitive to outside noise, it can get noisy if you have a room facing the main street. At least they provide you with ear plugs.
