Took a bit of getting used to using an app to open all the doors but otherwise, it was a good stay-close to the tube and restaurants, highly recommend if you need a base while in London!

We had a wonderful stay at The Drey! Special thanks to Liza for being so helpful and kind.
Building and rooms are in perfect state. As already said in other reviews the rooms are quite small. But they have all you need (good beds, a hot shower, coffee, towels,..). Perfect location for visiting Londen, and Earl's Court is a really nice neighboorhood! And a lot of close by public transport options.

New, clean, convenient location, great staff/service onsite. I loved the park and residential neighborhood — birdsong, children playing. Felt at home in the middle of the city.

the Drey is a very nice and well put hotel. Easy to access, and close to a lot of places like South Kensington and Brompton area. I love the ease and technology use in checking in and out. There could be more space but for a single traveller its very ideal!

Fantastic location a 2 minuite walk from Earls Court tube station. The hotel was modern and new. It smelt fresh and was spotlessly clean, I immediatley felt comfortable. All the staff were professional, courteous, helpful and friendly. The rooms are on the small side, but has everything you need. The bed is big and very comfortable with quality bedding. Quality fluffy towels too. I will most definitley stay again and would reccomend. Thankyou.

When we arrived to check in the staff were lovely. They explained how the key card system on your phone worked and then escorted us to the building we were staying in, it was raining and the small touch of the umbrella didn't go unnoticed. The room was spacious and clean, we were a family of 4 and had chosen the room with the queen sized bunk beds. We were very impressed and would highly recommend the hotel. The shops and Earls court tube station were a 3 minute walk away. The Natural history museum were in close proximity (about 25 minute walk).

The digital key was annoying, and digital check in/check out didn't work. The hotel itself was excellent for the price
Clean and modern room, good location, very quiet. Room was cramped but this was expected and really all I needed. I even got upgraded; my room had a window when I booked a windowless room.
