The hotel is in a quiet area about 15 min walk from the tube. The room was clean and comfortable. I stayed in a single room and it was perfect for my needs. Staff were helpful when I needed their help. Breakfast had a nice choice of friut, breads & pastries, meat & cheese. I would stay again.

Great place to stay right in London. We had so much to do in walking distance and public transportation is all with in minutes of a quick walk. We loved how quiet the room was and how nice and clean it was. We would stay here again!

Stayed here for 4 nights. Quiet & safe hotel. Close to Kensington gardens. Close to bus stops. Breakfast is good, has nespresso machine which I love, also has one in the room. The only thing is the bathroom fan does not work. Otherwise, we had a great stay.

The location is amazing, an easy walk to so many iconic London sites. The hands off approach, with service available as needed, really works well for me. And the complimentary continental breakfast and all day pastries and premium coffee was a real treat. The rooms are not large, but they’re comfortable and have everything you need. And did I mention location?

The hotel in a great location very clean and the staff pleasant helpful. Good breakfast. However the booked room turned out to be very different from the website presentation. Ending up with a blanked out window next to a commercial bin store. Being on a tight schedule on arrival giving no time to seek a change of room. helpful .

The building is beautiful, we had a good time there. Rooms were very clean. The breakfast is missing some variety, for me, there were too many sweets. But over all I can recommend staying there, it is very close to Kensington Gardens and has many options for public transport nearby.

The rooms and bathrooms were a bit dated and musty. The shower was so small that it was a challenge to shower without getting water everywhere. Everything else was great.

Very small room, which wasn't that clean (eg someones used towel had been left in our bathroom). Good location and okay breakfast. Poor value for the money we paid.

Comfy and cozy
While the room was bijou, it was comfortable. The breakfast spread was ample and delicious. The only drawback was the lack of adequate lighting. ‘Quiet hours’ from 10 pm to 8 am are conducive to relaxing in peace.

Room 106 is beautiful. Large and airy and on the ground floor. We were initially in 206 but there was a problem with the TV so we were moved on day 2. Room 206 is quite small and stuffy. Breakfast is fabulous. Continental and included in the price. Staff were friendly and helpful. Five minutes walk from High St Kensington tube, ten minutes walk to the Royal Albert Hall. Shopping and restaurants plentiful. All in all, a very good stay.

Great experience at this hotel! Rooms are clean, staff is very helpful, and it’s located in a great area of London. Rooms are small, but that was perfectly fine since I didn’t spend a lot of time in the room.

The location of this hotel is perfect. It is about 5-10 min walk from Kensington palace, very close to the beautiful park. I arrived around 9pm, check in was seamless and the girl at the reception was very sweet and helpful. I liked that you’re able to use your phone as a key to get inside hotel and your room. There is a pharmacy, small grocery store near-by open till 1am and some late night food and necessity purchases. My room was TINY. Probably the smallest I’ve ever stayed in. But size was okay for one person on a budget. I took off one star because I booked a room with a desk and it was not there when I arrived. As per hotel staff - someone broke it the day before I checked in. There was no space to put my things except a tiny bedside table. They provide good quality shower items. Breakfast was great- they had bakery items, cheese, cold cuts, veggies, coffee & tea. Overall, I would stay here again if traveling alone. The area and hotel were very safe.
