Bottom Line
There's certainly no shortage of hotels of this type around this part of West London. The location offers easy access to central London but without the choke and bustle of being right in the center. While the fresh, modern yet homey lobby area with a small bar, and the bright breakfast room, set the Phoenix apart from its competitors, some of the rooms are very small and compact.
