Chumleigh Lodge Hotel Ltd

London

Probably the worst hotel I've ever stayed in. I'll start with the positives. The owner was pleasant and let us check in early. Unfortunately it went down hill very quickly. I had four room bookings and had issues with every room. Mine in particular was poor. The debris in the garden was horrendous. Littered with old furniture and artifact's from the hotel. The front was similar with abandoned vehicles on the forecourt. 
My room had what appeared to be bodily fluid on the shower curtain. The window didn't close properly. The blind didn't work and the bed was like sleeping on a plank. The mirror was filthy and there where dead fly's in the fridge. The radiator was rusty and the reception area can only be described as a war zone. There was clutter everywhere. Including car log books and company accounts. This hotel needs to go back to the drawing board. The minimum requirement is to have a clean and tidy environment. Not dirty with a health risk. The other thing I noticed was the lack of leisure facilities. According to booking.com they had facilities for bollards tennis and various other sports. I doubt very much if these actually existed. Even for London prices this hotel was not worth the money paid

Hazardous environment 

This is the only hotel/slum I have ever left along with my 3 friends. The place should not be able to rent their rooms.
The place stinks and takes your breath away, the owner appears awkward and confused.
The rooms smelt,were unmade with wet towels used cups etc lying everywhere. God knows what kind of bugs would eat you alive if you stayed.
Be warned I urge you not to book we are currently trying to get in touch with a booking site to investigate this place.

Be warned..

Owner met us early morning to check us in and gave us room keys and front door key as we were going to an event and wouldn't be back till late evening. Very friendly and chatty. Rooms weren't ready so stored luggage for us. On returning later one room was fine but the other room looked like it hadn't been cleaned after the last guests. Dirty dishes and coffee cups on table.Bin full of rubbish Bed unmade and dirty towel. No one available to complain to at the time.No one there in the morning when we left.Would not stay here again. Hotel could do with a complete makeover

Very poor room cleanliness

We turned up at chumleigh lodge hotel and first look was untidy with two vehicles out the front with flat tyres.  On entering the lobby the door was locked..  we knocked and tried to phone but no answer!  Eventually a lovely little lady came to the door and said ‘ i forgot you was coming’ .  There was a horrible smell in the place.  As we were shown to our room a door opened and a strange man looked us and quickly closed his door.  We decided not to stay.  The toilet seat moved and wasn’t particularly clean. Big fridge freezer next to the bed and a microwave.  No milk for tea/coffee.  We went down and found the lady and once again the man who we had seen earlier seemed to be watching .  We actually asked if this was an actual hotel or a what??  She said I’m not sure I live here but wasn’t the owner.  No body about just a smell (boiled cabbage) that we couldn’t get away from.  We went back to the room picked our bags up and took the key trying to find someone to give it back to.  Ended up leaving by the ladies and calling to her to say we were leaving .  She just ok!
Enter at your peril and wished we had read the previous reviews for this place!

Couldn’t bring ourselves to stay

This is the worst hotel that I have stayed in after travelling the world for the past 60 years.  My wife and I arrived on the afternoon of the 17th October and were greeted in the hallway by a gentleman who introduced himself as Michael, In later discussions he would not confirm whether he was the manager or the owner. At first all seemed well and we went to our room very tired. After spending a bad night on a bed that was lumpy and had what appeared to be springs almost coming through the fabric of the mattress. We found that the bathroom was very small, had no shelves where we could put our toiletries etc and had a broken shower. There was one hook on the back of the door where we were supposed to hang our towels. A small metal table in the room was dusty and my wife had to clean it before putting our things on  it. The floor under the bed was also very dusty. The wardrobe door could not be opened as it clashed with the bedside table.
The following day we called Michael and said that we were unhappy with the state of the room and that we would be leaving, (we had paid for 6 nights). 
He became very defensive and after a discussion where he shoved the bed over so that the wardrobe door could be opened, we asked him about the dirt and the broken shower. He replied that we should give him time to fix things.
We decided that leaving was our best option. He then became very aggressive and told us to pack our things while he watched over us. I put my case onto the bed in order to pack, he immediately threw it onto the floor telling me not to put my case on his duvet.
He continued to be aggressive and bordered on being violently abusive, He was wagging his finger in my wife's face calling her a liar. I asked him to stop talking to her like that and he assaulted me by pushing me away. I considered then calling the police but fearful of his aggressive and violent behaviour decided that the best thing was to leave the premises as soon as possible. My wife and I are elderly and are certainly not used to being treated in that manner. I asked him for a refund for the 5 days that we would not be using and he told me that I should not expect anything.
Anybody who is contemplating booking this "hotel" please be aware.

It is no surprise that 39 out of 91 reviews give this "Hotel" a Poor or Terrible rating

No doorbell - I spent 10 minutes banging on the inside door - looked all round the outside in case I had missed one.  The owner , who eventually let me in, called me a liar, saying that I hadnt been knocking at all.  That was bad enough, but once inside he continued to be aggressive, rude and insulting.  I  left, feeling very shaken by his attitude.  I felt very vulnerable, and did not feel safe staying.  I don't think he would have acted so agressively that way had I been a man.  I have since found out, by being told, and reading reviews, that lots of people cannot get in, or have walked out.  And they've all paid their money and this man does not do refunds!  A dreadful experience.

beware

My boyfriend and I stayed at Chumleigh Lodge and, for the prices they ask, the rooms are excellent. They are clean, the heating is effective, towels and other basics are provided on top of a full sized fridge/freezer and microwave. Juice, milk and cereal is also provided in the room as well as tea/coffee etc. The bed was comfortable, we made use of the big fan kindly provided too. The owners were lovely and welcoming. I have no issues what so ever with this lovely little gem of a hotel! 

We are around London every September for an annual event which we attend and we’ll be staying at Chumleigh every time from now on! 

Thank you Chumleigh Lodge Hotel! 

No Flaws - Value For Money

Booked two rooms for an overnight stay (second room was for friends of ours) last night as we were attending a get together for a friends birthday meal. My wife and I were greeted by Alice with a warm welcome and met Michael a few minutes later who was also very friendly. Our room was lovely, spacious and with it being the hottest day of the year so far it was brilliant to have a great fan in the room to cool us down. We were a bit amused when Alice mentioned breakfast would be in our room, with everything in there but to be honest this morning I was so glad that I didn't have to get up and go downstairs for breakfast, it was nice seating in the room eating our cereals and juice. If we have any more events nearby will definitely be looking to book in here again.

One night stay

Originally was hesitant in going for this place from recent reviews but feel they hadn't fairly shined a decent light to this place.

Upon entrance was greeted politely and given keys; just a note for those going for a later check in, they do lock the front door in the evening so will probably leave a key in an envelope. 

Very relaxed feel. Super clean room including towels,hair dryer, iron and a lovely shower. 

It's near Finchely central, about a ten minute walk which is on the northern line- it is a little outside the zone of Camden so may be a bit more for an underground ticket. 

The price was fair and everyone was so polite, there are also Tesco express, little shops like that as well as takeaways nearby. 

This place also had a bunch of cereals, a fridge in the room and a kettle also in the room along with milk etc too.

Would come again to this place!

Recommend a stay!

I only give 4 starts because when I arrived there was nobody to talk to as there is no reception. It only took me about 10 min to get in touch with the manager. Then another issue was that my room was not ready, because they didn’t knew I was coming. Then I had to wait 29 min to get the room. On the plus side: Clean room and bathroom. Free coffee, tea, breakfast, milk abd cereals in room for free, 2 juices. Has free parking. It sais that checkout is by 9 AM, manager let me stay until 12 without asking. He just said that if I want to it’s ok no problem. So if I go again in that area for sure I will pick this Hotel.
