Had a single night at the Grantly Hotel, Shepherds Bush.

First impressions: Its an older building but looks reasonable from the outside.

On entering: The reception area was clean and freshly polished.

Paid cash to the bloke on reception for a 1 night stay in a single room.

My room was at basement level. The room itself was small, it had a single bed, a table and a small telly (with a broken remote control)

There was an ensuite bathroom consisting of toilet, washbasin and a shower cubicle. The glass sliding door on the shower had come off its runners and the carpet was damp where water had come out.

The bed was comfy (if slightly hard) and the sheets were very clean and fresh.

I had a good nights sleep at the Grantly hotel, its a budget hotel in a not particularly inspiring area of London but I felt it was pretty good value for money.

I didnt eat at the hotel but there is a Maccas across Shepherds Bush green (couple of minutes walk) plus a Subway down towards Goldhawk Rd tube station. There seemed to be lots of other takeaway type places to get food as well. The Shepherds Bush Empire is just a couple of minutes walk. Next door to the Empire is the infamous and legendary Shepherds Bush Walkabout (The SheBu Walkie to all you fellow Aussies). The perfect place to go for a pie and sauce, a VB, a bit of footy watching and to see probably the only pub in England with half an old FJ Holden nailed to the wall. Classy.

Try the Grantly for a reasonably cheap one night stay. There are probably better hotels in the area, but I'm sure there are heaps worse.

I would never recommend this place to anyone. They run some kind of scam with a far less pleasant hotel across the otherside of the green called The Abbey. They regularly overbook the rooms then ship the unlucky ones to this other hotel which resembles some kind of bail hostel.

The Grantly itself looked nice from what we saw i.e. the reception. But then we were given some rubbish story about a water leak and we had to stay somewhere else. This is dispite the fact he had only rang me the day before to confirm I still wanted the room.

The man at the Abbey was happy to tell me they work in partnership and the Grantly overbooked. I agree it's great for the empire but not great if you end up being one of the unlucky ones and ending up where we did!!!

Great little Hotel. It is a budget hotel, but I suspect one of the best value for money Hotels of its class, in London. The quad room is always going to be crowded with 4 adults in it but we managed fine - more room than I thought there would be. Hotel has been recently done up so ensuite was beautiful. Staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast was more than adequate. Location handy to tube and a small market, plenty of shops and pubs close by and a small park directly across the road. Not always quiet, but then nowhere else in London is going to be either. Pleasantly surprised overall. We had a great stay. Would highly recommend to others.

The room and the equipment is very old and in a bad condition. The bedspread was full of small spots and dirty.
I don't know what is older the room it self or the bath room. The room was not hoovered and everywhere was dust.
Good was the breakfast and the equipment outside of the room, also the stuff was friendly. The location is also very close to the center of London.
