Overall not a bad stay. Quite close to train stations and lots of shops around. The room was a bit hot because even though there was a fan there wasn’t much breeze pushed out of it. Staff were responsive and helpful and friendly. Check in was smooth as well. The sheets were a bit dirty as well and weren’t changed daily nor were towels changed. Would recommend changing those especially if guests are staying longer than 2 days.

The size of the room was a pleasant surprise. There's a large window so excessive heating is not an issue (also a wall fan which works well). Members I met at the reception were very kind and inviting - Falguni and Adil. Would recommend for solo/couple travellers looking for reasonably priced options.

Good location and easy access by bus to White City and Shepherds Bush station or short walk. Had a double room and it was a good size, came with a fridge and smart TV. Rooms were cleaned everyday and it is pretty comfortableand good value for money. Note that you have to collect your keys a few doors away, so if you are in a taxi and have heavy bags, be aware.

The room that we stayed at was a standard small size double bed room. It was clean and had fresh clean towels. The room wasn’t dusty at all. The shower was a little small but once again it was a smaller room. The water pressure was surprisingly really good. The morning Ang night staff were so nice and helpful.
The only reason why I’m giving it four stars instead of five it’s because the hotel did not have AC which I did not know was a thing in London. There was a fan in our room and we were able to open up our windows, but it was so hot but once again I do not blame the hotel because apparently when my daughter and I booked our stay, it just happened to be during a heat wave.

Good location, easy access to shops, cafes, restaurants and Sainsbury local 2 mins away.

It's a no frills hotel and you get what you pay for.

My only advice is in summer, do not stay here, the heat in the room is almost unbearable, there's no AC and it's cooler outside than in the room. Would be much more comfortable in winter.

Owners are very nice, hotel is cheap for a reason, a bed and shower but no more which is fine if that's all you need.

Room was lovely with windows that could be opened letting in the much needed breeze during this heatwave! Staff were friendly letting us leave our luggage in the office before 3pm booking in. Thank you for allowing us to enter our room an hour earlier without charge. The little fridge was a fantastic surprise ( a very good idea that most hotels don’t consider) Another good reason we picked Sapphire is the availability of twin rooms so friends and relatives can have one room and share the cost, rather than the inconvenience of sharing a double bed. My Cousin and I will definitely be staying again on our next excursion to London. Superb location as SB has everything to offer with friendliness. Thank you team Sapphire from Karen and Kelly 👍

Definitely an older walk up hotel, but clean. Close to shopping and restraunts. Neighborhood grocery store across the street. Mini fridge and coffee maker in room both worked well. Shower worked well, plenty of hot water. No AC, but a good wall fan. No on-site laundry or breakfast offerings although the sign in the hall indicates breakfast. Front door downstairs slams pretty loud, but we dealt with it. Good place for a reasonable price.

The hotel was ok. Basic stuff that we needed. We had to get our card to our room 7 doors up the road at the Pearl Hotel and then waited ages for someone to come to reception (an office). We booked to stay at the Sapphire Hotel but was told our room was at this Pearl Hotel which I refused. There is no lift just stairs. Room was quite bare and echos. I would recommend putting in some more decor to make it more homely. Bathroom was nice and clean just the shower door was a bit stiff. There wasn’t any spoon to stir my tea which is an essential for must tea drinkers. There was only one pillow per bed and me personally I like more pillows to sleep on. The walls and ceilings are very thin you could hear everything upstairs to footsteps etc and I could hear the person staying in the next room yawning and talking on the phone so not ideal early in the morning. The traffic outside was loud at all hours. The carpet needs replacing as has marks all over it and certain areas of the room are a bit shabby. The fridge was ideal for drinks to stay cold and the fan was good for when it was hot weather days. The room was advertised as having a DVD player but it did not, so I had an unhappy child for a while!! The location was great Sainsbury’s over the road handy for essentials and loads of places to eat and a 10 min walk to the underground and overground stations.

The property itself just wasn’t super nice, and the bathroom smelled soooo strongly of cigarettes. It’s the cheapest hotel in that immediate area and you kinda get what you pay for. Overall, it was okay-to-uncomfortable, but the staff are really nice.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was bad enough that others should be aware.
On arrival, the check-in staff member was friendly and welcoming, which initially gave us some confidence. Unfortunately, that was where the positives ended. The room itself was clearly not cleaned to an acceptable standard — surfaces felt neglected and the overall condition was far below what you would reasonably expect.
The bathroom was particularly concerning, with a persistent sewage smell that made it unpleasant to use. On top of that, the hallway outside had a noticeable smell of marijuana, which only added to the sense that the property was not being properly managed.
When we raised these issues and asked to change rooms, communication effectively stopped. What began as a responsive front desk experience quickly turned into being ignored, with no meaningful attempt to resolve the situation.
Ultimately, we felt we had no choice but to leave early and find alternative accommodation at our own expense.
This was a disappointing and frustrating experience. Basic cleanliness, responsive service, and a safe, comfortable environment are not unreasonable expectations — and unfortunately, this hotel failed on all three.
