Great location near Hammersmith tube. Friendly staff and a clean room. Small... but great value for the money. Hammersmith's great as it's straight on the tube 20 mins to Westminster so perfect

Excellent room we were right at the top so not suitable for those less able to manage stairs. Very clean with a comfortable bed easy check in will stay there again when next in town.

Great Spot
Chose to take a smaller room so that I could check in early. Only complaint is it was next to the stairwell and the noise from people moving around was a bit high. Other than that staff was super friendly, room was very clean, and location was great. Highly recommend.

The plaze was amazing and clean! We’ve no problems whatsoever. The place was close to the station and a lot of shops. The housekeeper was friendly and accommodating. The check-in was a breeze! Would recommend.

Convenient and nice
Aviva studio apartments are super convenient. They are a short walk from the Hammersmith station to take the tube basically everywhere. There are also great places to eat nearby. We really enjoyed our stay. Our room was a perfect size for us. We didn't need much since we were only there to sleep. We spent most of our time out and about but it was very nice to come back to this room.

The owner/managers have obviously put a lot of thought even into the small things. Their investment in the hotel is total.They care about what they are doing and their clientele. One example of this is a set of hooks on the outside of the bathroom door in the room I had. Additionally it is near walking distance to both Hammersmith tube stops as well as a Primark, a Sainsbury supermarket and all kinds of local stores, pubs, and restaurants including a Poundland (like a Dollar Store).

Comfort, independence and great owners!
Ideal location in busy Hammersmith, but tucked away from the main roads within walking distance of everything. So great have your own kitchen and save on over-priced restaurant food. Very comfortable bed & pilllows and a great layout in room. The only downside was rowdy next door neighbours - two twenty something guys. I ended up banging on their door at 2.30am (which worked), little realising that the lovely couple who run this great place would have done that for me. They live on the premises and will always take care of guests if there are any issues. You cannot account for the odd bad guest - people are unpredictable. And yes, I would stay there again. I really liked it and it suited me perfectly for a one night visit or even two.

Aviva was perfect for our needs. Staff was very friendly, room had everything you might need, simple, and they even held our luggage for us while we checked out the city! We loved the neighborhood, and the proximity to the tube helped us see the most we could in our short visit.

Nice staff but noisy
They have nice pillows but you’ll need them to put over your head to sleep because the house is old and creaky and has normal walls, not soundproof. Hammersmith is a good location and fairly close on the tube line to London. Very nice receptionists and maid. Small rooms but kitchen is great. We had loud neighbors with noisy kids. Construction site across street is loud. Supermarkets nearby.

Located near Hammersmith in zone 2, very convenient to get around using public transit (four lines and multiple buses). The staff at Aviva were very accommodating with my pre-stay requests and great during as well. Great value and experience for your London stay.

Lovely place to stay
The stay was really good! Close by to the tubes and stations, so for us it was great, as we were exploring all around London for the weekend. Not only that but the apartment was lovely to come back to after a cold night at Hyde Park Winter Wonderland, and we both slept like babies on the bed, so comfy!

Very handy location
The location was great, the staff were very pleasant and welcoming and the room was well equipped and clean. If you are staying for more than one night then it's really useful that the room has a small kitchen area with a fridge, cooker, microwave and utensils. Felt like good value to me and I'd stay again.

Good enough when the price is right.
Not bad, not great. Converted rowhouse, nice for an extended stay because of the kitchenette, so-so for a short stay. Owners were very friendly, prompt, and helpful. Didn’t like that I could hear my neighbor hacking up a lung in the bathroom each morning. The mattress was definitely in need of replacement, the shower could use a shelf to put your toiletries, and the water was impossible to keep at a constant temperature. Had to stay alert in the shower to jump out of the alternately scalding and cold water. Great location near Hammersmith tube station.

Close to Underground Station, Malls, Shops
I and my wife had 2 suitcases each. We were helped from the front door by hotel staff who insisted he carry the heavier suitcase of mine because he was "heavier" (than me) then picked up one of my wife's suitcases, too. Our room was on the 4th floor (3rd floor but building starts with "Ground", then "1", "2", "3") so there was desire on the hotel's part to make up for its lack of elevator especially for those staying on the upper floors. Hotel was clean, in a quiet residential neighborhood, and close to all the shops and Underground (Hammersmith). While shopping along main street (King St.), I saw two major chain hotels and Aviva is a shorter walk from the Underground.

The room was ready when we arrived early, which was great. It was a little tight on room, there really wasn't any room for suitcases. The shower room is quite small, but serviceable. We had a couple of issues with a hairdryer, and the toilet which were dealt with immediately. The stairs are a bit of a challenge. Especially with luggage, but the young lady who checked us in helped us. which was really appreciated.

Good value studios with good transport connections
Aviva Studio Apartments is a large semi-detached town house conversion about 5 minutes' walk from Hammersmith tube station (about 40 minutes to the City). The owners live in the lower levels, so the place looks well-cared for, and you have reception cover between 08:00 and 22:00. It is situated on a one-way street not far from the Hammersmith one way system, which does mean that there is traffic late at night and early morning. There was some noise from building sites nearby, but that's pot luck wherever you stay. The stair carpet could do with replacing, but other than that the place is in good repair, and the cleaning staff are diligent and keep the place very clean. The rooms have aircon (a big plus at this price bracket), and whilst the bathroom was small, everything was spotlessly clean. The mattresses aren't too thick, and the walls are thin (you can hear the conversation (and other things) from the room next door and above. Despite those few minor irritations, this place is great value for money and I will likely stay again.

Comfortable, exceptionally clean Studio's.
This is my second stay at Aviva Studio's. Really comfortable and exceptionally clean with air conditioning which was a joy in tnis weeks 30 plus heat!! and family run who go out of their way to make your stay a joy. Nothing is too much trouble they even cooked my dinner in their own oven for me when found out my meal wasn't suitable for microwave. Studio's are modern with blinds which do keep out the light. My studio was at the back and totally noise free with comfortable double bed. Will definitely be returning and highly recommend.

Clean and convenient studio
My family of three stayed here for three nights. It is a 5 minute walk from Hammersmith Station which has access to the picadilly and district lines, making transportation into central London very easy. The host was very pleasant and let us keep our bags in the lobby till check in. The neighborhood had a wide selection of restaurants and coffee shops. The room is small but has everything you need and the kitchenette is well equipped with an oven, burners, microwave, toaster, fridge, plates, glass wear and utensils. Bed was very comfortable and the AC was working great. Very clean living quarters. The wifi was a bit inconsistent is all. Would definitely recommend to those looking to stay on a budget in London!

Two day break
I needed two nights to rest and relax. The location is lovely, apart from the construction work going on opposite. The building looked perfect, but on entry there was no lift and I was situated on the top floor. I had to carry my luggage up 4.5 flights of stairs. The lights didn't always come on in time and the stairs creak. It is quite steep and narrow. I had the studio room. The cupboard door for the crockery fell of and was not fixed when I reported it. But the room was clean and quite nice. The staff were friendly and helpful.

More than decent on a budget
Pleasant location close to Hammersmith tube. Friendly management, helpful in lugging bags up the stairs. Very comfortable bed in a rather small room. This is not luxury, but still very reasonably priced given the area. WiFi connectivity was somewhat intermittent, and despite promises to fix the in-room safe it wasn't fixed in my two-day stay. And, there was no phone in the room. But, the place is clean, the owners are nice, and the price is right. I'd stay here again.
