Before we set off for London, I emailed the hotel to check the car parking facilites. They replied promptly and advised there were spaces available. We were allocated Room 16 at the top of the building. The twin bedded room was bright, clean and comfortable. There was a good selection of teas provided too. I particularly liked the wooden window... More

We stayed here for a month, while visiting relatives close by. We found it a very convenient location for seeing London. It's a 10 minute walk to Balham station, which is both a tube station (Northern line) and an overground station (two stops to Clapham Junction). There are lots of good restaurants in the area. It's very close to Tooting... More

Stayed one night for a business trip. Friends who live nearby recommended the Balham Lodge. Further from Balham tube station than I'd expected, but that's not their fault. Checked in around 8pm. Not a terribly friendly process. Not rude, just not very interested. Had booked a standard double, was upgraded to a superior double. Heaven knows what the standard rooms... More

Stayed here for a couple of nights recently arrived with high expectations,Unfortunately my expectations were not met. Extremely small ensuite bathroom (tiny shower) water stayed in the sink and shower for over a half an hour making even the simplest task of hand washing impossible - brought the problem to the owners attention who said she look at it -...

Stayed here in November, originally for 3 nights but stayed for over a week as they were able to find a room even though they were fully booked over the weekend. A lovely room, beautiful furniture, very clean and excellent helpful staff. The 24 hour reception made it easy to use as you did not have to worry about what... More

Stayed 2 nights in this hotel. Clean rooms and helpful friendly staff. Small private carpark a bonus. Easy walking distance to Baham.I was staying in a single room- small but very clean- and the 24 hr reception made me feel very safe. I was visiting friends and will definatly stay there again. More
