The Brook Green Hotel

The Brook Green Hotel Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to The Brook Green Hotel on Shepherd Bush Road, you immediately get that feeling of stumbling onto something good that most tourists miss. It’s tucked into this lovely stretch of London where Hammersmith meets the quieter residential streets, and honestly — the building itself has this understated charm that feels authentically British without trying too hard. This three-star property doesn’t scream for attention, but once you step inside, you realize that’s exactly the point.

The Neighborhood Advantage

Here’s what I love about this spot — you’re actually in a proper London neighborhood, not some touristy bubble. Brook Green is just around the corner (hence the name), and it’s one of those perfect little parks where locals walk their dogs and kids play football. You’ve got the Hammersmith Apollo literally walking distance away, which means catching shows is ridiculously easy. The Tube connections are brilliant too — Hammersmith station gets you anywhere in the city, but you can also just wander down to the Thames path when you need a break from the urban chaos.

The Room Experience

I’ll be straight with you — the rooms aren’t massive, but they’re thoughtfully designed and those beds are genuinely fantastic. People weren’t kidding when they raved about the comfort level; I actually slept better here than at some much pricier places in central London. The room I stayed in had this cozy, almost residential feel that made me forget I was in a hotel. You know what really impressed me? The attention to small details — proper blackout curtains, decent water pressure, and outlets where you actually need them.

Food That Actually Matters

The breakfast here deserves its own paragraph because, well, it’s that good. They do a proper full English that doesn’t feel like it came from a heat lamp, plus solid vegetarian options that aren’t just an afterthought. The restaurant staff clearly take pride in what they’re serving — you can taste the difference. I mean, hotel breakfast can be such a gamble in London, but this place gets it right. Even the coffee is decent, which honestly surprised me given how many hotels still mess that up.

Why Guests Love It

There’s something to be said for a place that earns genuine loyalty from its guests, and you can feel it here. The staff remember returning visitors, the local recommendations are spot-on, and couples especially seem to gravitate toward this area (apparently rating the location 9.0, which makes total sense). It’s not trying to be the flashiest option in London — instead, it’s focusing on being the kind of place where you’d actually want to stay again. Sometimes that’s worth more than all the fancy amenities in the world.

Locals suggest to book apartments in London around Marylebone for farmers markets, bookshops, and leafy mews.

  Great room and breakfast.

• Anne from United Kingdom (9/10)

  I stayed at the hotel for a work event – the room was lovely and the staff were excellent. We had a Christmas party at the venue; the food was very, very good as was the party in the private basement room. For a London hotel the room was good value – very clean with a large shower room and 5 minute walk from Hammersmith.

• Francesca from United Kingdom (9/10)

  Lovely traditional pub. The rooms are just above and our room was very quiet. Great big bed, big bathroom and lovely breakfast. Location is perfect and not too busy, very easy walking distance from Hammersmith tube station. Staff was very good, friendly and willing to help, but at same time very casual and easy going.

• Rahha from United Kingdom (9/10)
