Liked: Staff & service
Greeted by a lovely man at the front desk, helped us with our transport into London. Room was pretty spacious, double bed was comfy but sofa bed was average - very thin “mattress” and could just do with renewing and seat cushions could do with a deep clean. Overall not a bad stay, decent location

Nice Room

Nice quiet area, room was big enough for me being a single. It was a very hot night but the fan provided helped a little. The guy on reception was great, even popped outside in the garden occasionally for a chat, great customer service. Thank you.

We had a lovely stay here. We were visiting our daughter at UAL so just a short walk to her accommodation. Nice time exploring Balaham. The room was clean, tidy and comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. Would recommend and will stay again.

Good location, we enjoyed a comfortable single night stay at Balham Lodge. We were on the top floor, where there is compromised headroom on one side of the bed. But the bed and good quality bedding allowed for a good night's sleep.
