Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to Earls Court Spacious Apartment on Lillie Road, you get that nice feeling of being in a proper residential neighborhood rather than some tourist trap. The building sits quietly among the Victorian terraces, and honestly, that’s exactly what you want when you’re staying in someone’s apartment — it feels like you’re actually living in London for a few days instead of just passing through.
The Space
The name doesn’t lie about the spacious bit. This four-star place genuinely has room to spread out, which is something of a miracle in London. The living area flows nicely into the dining space, and there’s actually a proper kitchen where you can make a decent cup of tea (or save some money by cooking breakfast instead of paying café prices every morning). The room itself feels thoughtfully put together — not like someone just threw furniture at the walls and hoped for the best.
Location & Getting Around
Lillie Road is one of those streets that locals use but tourists rarely stumble upon, which means you’re getting a slice of real London life. The Earl’s Court tube station is close enough that you won’t be dragging your suitcase for ages, but far enough that you escape the constant stream of backpackers. West Brompton station is actually closer if you’re heading toward central London — something the GPS doesn’t always figure out for you.
The Neighborhood Feel
What I really like about this area is how it sits between worlds. You’ve got the green spaces of Brompton Cemetery just down the road (sounds morbid, but it’s actually lovely for morning walks), and you’re within reasonable distance of both Chelsea’s posh bits and the more laid-back vibe of Fulham. There are proper local pubs nearby, not just tourist traps, and the kind of corner shops where you can actually find what you need without paying hotel minibar prices.
Why Guests Love It
This place works because it gives you breathing room — literally and figuratively. After a day of navigating crowded tube stations and packed attractions, coming back to somewhere with actual space feels like a small victory. The 8.1 rating makes sense when you consider that guests are getting genuine value here: a real apartment experience in a city where most accommodations feel like expensive shoe boxes. It’s the kind of place where you can actually unpack your suitcase and settle in, rather than living out of your luggage for the entire stay.

"A spacious oasis within the heart of London."
Great location and a spacious apartment. It had all the amenities and a washer and dryer. The owner greeted us with fresh milk and coffee supplies and a bowl of fresh local fruit. There was a bus stop on the block and a tube station a couple blocks away.
What could be improved: Wish there was a door between the master bedroom and master bathroom but that is all we would change.

"Ok, but not for people expecting a quiet nights sleep"
As described in the pictures, short walk to the tube.
What could be improved: Directly below another unit who has a large dog that barks. Also people coming home at all hours woke us up several times. If it was one night in the week I could understand, but it was several.

"The place was wonderful and perfect. However, the other rooms does not come with the wardrobe."
Close to the West Brompton station (200 meters)
What could be improved: The main bedroom door has no lock. Its wiser to install the lock to avoid unnecessary embarassment.

"Good"
How close it was to bus and train stations. There was a supermarket near by. Kitchen was well equipped.
What could be improved: When we arrived, there was only one key to the apartment, had to wait for 30 minutes to get other key. Bedroom/bathroom door knock was broken but was also fixed while we were there. The curtains in the bedroom need to be clean once in a while, had a weird smell. There should be a divider between one of the bedrooms and bathrooms in order to use the bathroom without telling anyone that it will be busy. There was no lock to door that had direct access to bathroom and bedroom, had to pass thru bacthroom in order to get to bedroom. In order to use that bathroom, everyone in living room and bedroom had to know someone would be using it.

"Early Christmas vacation.."
The location of this property is exceptional. The kitchen was well equipped and there was everything we needed. It's a good size too. Beds are ok not great but comfortable enough. We didn't experience noise from the owners upstairs like other reviews stated.
What could be improved: The only thing i would say was that, upon arrival the flat which is a basement ground floor flat, had a very strong mouldy smell and i panicked a bit worrying about our stay but the smell only lasted a couple of days thank goodness i think because we aired the place every day by opening windows and doors it helped!! Also i think it could have been a bit cleaner the floors needed to be swept and the kitchen counter had crumbs from previous visitors which put me off as i got the broom and started sweeping and did all the work top surfaces.. The wifi was not too good. Tv kept reloading because of it and that was a little annoying. But overall it was good and i would stay there again to be honest.

"Very nice and pleasant. Thank you."
Very spacious, well equipped and conveniently located. It was also a quiet surrounding.
What could be improved: Would be nice to have a door between the toilet and the bedroom next to it. To have a bit more privacy on the toilet and to avoid migration of odor.

"Kind hosts, perfect place to explore the city."
Location nearby tube station, having your own place, well -stocked fridge and ample supply of coffee, tea, etc.
A really fully equipped kitchen! (more than enough cutlery, plates, mugs, glasses pans, spices and herbs, even cookbooks)
Property had a personal touch to it.
What could be improved: The sofa was a bit uncomfortable; the mattress in the bedroom at the back was a bit too soft to our taste.
Other than that we have nothing to complain about.
