Fifteen fire engines are also in attendance at the building on Wood Lane, with the fire affecting floors towards the top of the building, the London Fire Brigade said.
Wood Lane is closed to traffic and people are advised to avoid the area.
First reports of the blaze were received just after 3am and crews from Hammersmith, North Kensington, Kensington, Chiswick and surrounding fire stations were mobilised to the scene.
Two 32-metre turntable ladders are being deployed as water towers to help extinguish the fire from height, the brigade said.
