Finally wiseing up to not take the HEX. Our hotel is near Earl's Court. Do we want the blue line from Heathrow? But then what?

Thank you. Picccadilly it is! I was also wondering about a lift to street level and found the info on a London Transport site. We are staying at the Premier Inn Kensington and hopefully it will be a short walk as advertised. We will be tired.

Earl's Court does have elevators from the Piccadilly Line, but there will probably be a short flight of stairs between the train platform and the elevator. The upper landing of the elevator is at street level.

My regular hotel in London is a block away from the Premier Inn. Here's what you do:
Take the PIccadilly line to Earl's Court Underground Station. Take the elevator (lift) from the Piccadilly Line to street level (there are no stairs to get to the lift.) Exit onto Earl's Court Road. (There will be a ramp to your left if you having rolling luggage or just carry it the few steps after you exit the ticket machines. (You will need either your individual ticket or card to exit the station,)
When you exit the station, there will be a crosswalk with a traffic light right in front of you. Cross the street. Turn right. Take the first street on your left. Walk to the end of the block. Turn left and you will be at the Premier Inn. It's about a 2-3 minute walk depending on how fast you walk.
