Hazel went above and beyond. From me arriving late then being welcomed like a family member to needing help late at night, Hazel delivered. A totally unique experience in guest housing environment.
Room was so cozy and had everything needed. Top quality!
Some may say quirky, I say a proper home from home.
I definitely recommend Hazel’s guest house and will hopefully come and stay again soon (hope she will be able to fit me in as she is so much in demand)
So much to see and do in the area. So close to the Olympic Stadium which was where we were visiting. Just wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you so much ♥️

Shambolic chaos

I was shown to my room and thought id stepped out of a time machine.
I found the clutter, disorganised decor quite horrific.
I was tired so i slept on a comfortable bed with mismatched bedding.
The bathroom and hallway were overflowing with drying laundry

I feel that this property should not be taking guests until the accomodation is sorted out.
Ok if you like quirky paraphernalia.

The real London experience

Hazel who runs this B&B is a lovely character who makes you feel at home immediately. She has an artistic nature and her property reflects that with sculptures crafted by her and local children in the front garden, and nick-nacks all around the house with for example a large china Dalmatian in the entrance hall with a sparking pink top hat. It is without a doubt characterful! If you want minimalism this is not the place for you. If you want to feel at home as if staying with a friend this is the place for you.

Friendly, comfortable and handy guest house

This is a lovely guest house and an ideal place for a short break or to stay when working in London. The owner is really friendly and could not have been more helpful to me. The house itself is quite something, included many decorative features from the 1950s and 60s which you rarely see nowadays. The room I stayed in was clean, very comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was lovely as well and it was so refreshing to have a fried breakfast which wasn't swimming in oil!

Home from home

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this guest house. It won't be for everyone, due to the informal and bohemian nature of the building and hospitality, but I found it a real home from home. The owner was very welcoming and couldn't do enough for me. The breakfast was superb and it was a nice change to have the company of the landlady at the breakfast table. It was more like staying over at a friends house and definitely a better ambience than staying in some of the more sterile chain hotels I usually frequent. There is a great pub across from the train station that serves good and reasonably priced food, as well as proper ales on draught. There are plenty of takeaways and mini supermarkets around too if you need them.
I would definitely recommend this place and will be returning when I am next in the area.

2 nights stay in September 2016

Hazel is extremely welcoming and goes out of her way to make you feel at home. I stayed in the front bedroom with ensuite which looks out over Earlham Grove. Room size is good, bed was comfy and not very much noise from the road so slept well. Breakfast was extensive and tasty. Wifi was in room but rather slow while I was there. A short walk from Forest Gate station or 25 minutes to Stratford with multiple connection possibilities. Overall a very pleasant experience that I would gladly repeat. Perhaps not for those who like everything modern but you'd need to go a long way to find a friendlier host!

Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable . Breakfast was amazing with such a great choose . After breakfast Hazel, found us the tube route we needed to get to our destination . On returning to pick up our luggage, Hazel made us a cold drink and we sat in her back garden(a rarity in London) and relaxed before our journey home .

A Visit with Your Favorite Aunt!

The Grove Guest House had 5 stars and great reviews. I decided other people couldn't be wrong, so I booked a week there for a business trip. I was looking for the true B&B experience, not the hotel with breakfast offered experience. I was not disappointed.
Immediately I get a warm email from Hazel about saftey in London, what the Grove House offers, and asked what I wanted for breakfast. I still had 9 months before I was to check-in, but I admired her committment to make my stay comfortable and happy.
When I checked-in, which was late after a long day of travel, I was exhausted. She made me a cup of tea and let me crash. She had remembered what I requested for breakfast 9 months prior and had it for me the next morning.
The entire week she was warm, friendly, chatty, and so very helpful. She even taught me how to make an omelet! (I had always broke them before, but now I can!)
The best way to describe my experience was as if I was visiting a favorite aunt. Warm, homey, comfortable. And delicious food! The bed was cozy. No stiff hotel bed. It is also only a 5 minute walk to the train. When I come back to London, I will be staying with Hazel.

LOVELY WELCOME

I've travelled a great deal in my working life, all over the globe and stayed in some lovely (and not so lovely!) hotels. I booked The Grove not having read any of the previous reviews. Hazel is nothing short of wonderful. End of. I have never received a better welcome at any place I have ever stayed. Nothing is too much trouble and she made my three night stay an absolute pleasure. Bed was soooooooo comfortable! Do not book The Grove if you are expecting a \"standard\" London hotel or guest house - It is way better than that. I will definitely re-book when I am next in London. One last thing though Hazel..... You could definitely put your prices up, stop selling yourself short :-)

Unbeatable value and top hostess

Over 6 weeks and more than a dozen BnB's, guesthouses, hotels and hostels, we found Hazel's 'Grove Guest House' to be an outstanding stay for value for money and a friendly, warm welcome.Our hostess, Hazel, genuinely likes people and generously shares her home with them. When I arrived I had undergone some tummy problems in France and Hazel made particular efforts to ensure that, despite the shared bathroom we had booked, we had the use of toilet and bathroom to ourselves(this, I suspect, may have been at some inconvenience to herself).She was a great help in organizing a one- day (self guided) tour that took in many of London's sights yet still considered our budget.Her knowledge of London and, particularly, the East end is unequalled.And her hot cooked brekky each morning gave us a great start to the day (Yum, the porridge!)Thanks Hazel.
