London – Travel & Hotels – Hotels
We stayed for a night at the Chiswick Moran Hotel a couple of weeks ago. Located at the end of Chiswick High Road, about a ten minute walk from the centre of Chiswick, the hotel offers large rooms in a modern building.
Our room was very well appointed with a big, comfy, king-size bed. There was room for two armchairs, a coffee table, a large desk and chair, and an LCD TV on the wall. There was plenty of storage in the room, with two bedside cabinets, two wardrobes and a chest of drawers. Conveniently the room already had an iron and ironing board in the room — proper ones too, not the built-in sort you sometimes get in hotels.
The bathroom was also large, with one of the walk-in rain showers mentioned by GCattermole. To begin with this seemed a bit feeble compared with the power showers I’m used to, but it was actually very relaxing and a lot like standing in a heavy downpour! The bathroom also had a separate bath, which was a bonus, and a speaker in the ceiling hooked up to the TV.
The bar and separate restaurant, situated downstairs on either side of reception, both looked stylish and modern, however we didn’t make use of either facility as we had other plans.
The car park underneath the hotel costs a hefty £20 per 24 hours for non-residents; those staying at the hotel are charged a more reasonable £10 per 24 hours.
I would recommend this hotel if you fancy staying somewhere comfortable outside the centre of London. It’s close to both rail and tube stations, so getting into town shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
