Grove Inn

Clean with friendly staff and nearby chip shop and other local stores for everyday essentials

All good and will probably use again

The room had a window that could be opened, with an electrically operated sun blind! This is extraordinary for London. Though it could only be reached over stairs to the 2nd floor it was just excellent, spick-and-span and with a clean and proper own bathroom with a spotless shower cabin. The bed for two somewhat narrow but comfortable. Downstairs a sports bar with seven beer sorts and one cider. Access to all is granted by a mail providing the code to the premises as well as to the room. We slept with open window due to the summer heat and fresh wind coming in at night but hey, the neighbourhood is so quiet, that was amazing. Busses to the center go nearby, alimentation and restaurants and cafés nearby, a dream. Will always happily stay there again when in London. This was our 3rd visit to the town.

There was no real disturbance, only one false alarm one evening that turned out to be a known problem that is to be fixed soon.

Property was just right for my 3 day stay. Definitely worth the money, it’s not a high class stay but it was comfortable and in a great location of lots to do. The area is quiet. Loved that they have a pub downstairs with great staff. Sam helped by getting key code for the room a little earlier as I had an event to get to in the day - All in All I would come back again.

I stayed when it was a heatwave weekend and had one of the top rooms. Could had done with air-con but I’m sure that would be a big investment for them. But the fan in the room just about made it. Apart from that I enjoyed my stay.

We really liked the location of the hotel. The area was convenient, and there was a pub right next to the hotel, which was a nice addition. The room itself had modern facilities and a comfortable design. We especially liked the soft bed, which made sleeping very pleasant.

Unfortunately, our stay did not start well. When we arrived, our room was not properly cleaned and was not ready for us to use. The cleaner initially asked me if everything was alright, and I replied that I hoped so. However, after taking a closer look, we noticed that the old bed sheets from the previous guests were still on the bed, and the used towels from the previous guests were still in the room. There was also a used plaster lying on the table. The towels were only replaced after we asked a second time. The cleaner was also quite unfriendly towards us the following day. We wanted to sleep a little longer in the morning, but she insisted on discussing through the door that she needed to clean the room, even though we had already explained that it was not necessary that day and that she could clean it the next day after our departure. I have honestly never experienced anything like this in a hotel before. When I check into a hotel, I expect the room to be clean, tidy, and ready without having to point out these issues myself. Additionally, adjusting the hot water in the shower was very difficult. The water was either extremely hot or cold, and it took a long time to find the right temperature setting on the shower control. Overall, we were disappointed with the cleanliness and the service we received during our stay.
