The Spotlight on Oxford Hotel

Affordable Comfort Steps from Earl's Court

Modern convenience meets classic charm at the Oxford Hotel, located on a peaceful, tree-lined street just around the corner from Earl's Court Underground Station. This budget-friendly hotel is right in the heart of West London, within easy walking distance to top exhibition centres and concert venues. With simple, comfortable en-suite rooms, free WiFi, and leafy views from both the front and back, it's a solid base for music lovers looking to explore the city.

Why Concert-goers love it

Being just a 2-minute walk from Earl's Court Station means you're well-connected to London’s biggest music venues without the late-night commute stress. After the show, retreat to a quiet residential street away from the crowds. The 24-hour reception is perfect for late check-ins, and with lifts to all floors, you won’t be dragging gear up the stairs. Whether you're catching a show at Olympia or heading into central London, this location makes it easy.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking to split a budget room near the Tube
  • Solo travelers chasing a dream gig with easy transport
  • Couples wanting a laid-back weekend near Kensington
  • Fans after a quiet place to crash post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want value over frills

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant for dinner, the hotel’s air-conditioned breakfast room serves a simple morning spread—ideal after a late night. With Earl's Court Road just steps away, you’ve got plenty of pubs, cafes, and takeaways within walking distance, many open late. No room service here, but you won’t go hungry with so much nearby.

Nightlife Options

You won’t find a bar in the building, but you’re just minutes from vibrant local pubs and lounges around Kensington, Earl’s Court, and Fulham. Whether you're after a quiet pint or a post-show cocktail, there’s something for every vibe. Live music pubs and late-night spots dot the area, offering plenty of ways to keep the party going.

What People Say

Guests consistently say the Oxford Hotel is great value for the location, with special praise for how close it is to the Tube. Reviewers love the peaceful atmosphere after a busy night out and mention the staff as friendly and helpful. Rooms are described as basic but clean, with many guests happy to trade luxury for convenience.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms here are on the smaller side, and the décor is a bit dated—but that’s part of the budget charm. Breakfast is fairly minimal, and some guests have mentioned that the WiFi can be spotty during peak hours. That said, if you're here for the gigs, you probably won’t be spending much time in your room anyway.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for an affordable, quiet place to recharge after a concert—just steps from the Underground—Oxford Hotel hits the right notes.
