Near train station
Patrick, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Other than the curtains being broken resulting in no privacy and me needing to tie the broken curtain to the bed post, the hotel was easy to find, staff was polite, wifi was strong and consistent, room was spacious (rare for LDN) and clean, and the portable AC was mint. Overall great stay and I'd go again.

8/10 Very good

Weekend in Kensington

We really enjoyed the hotel. I agree with some reviewers comments about worn carpets and light bulbs out in the hotel. However, our room was large and comfortable, the location near the Gloucester St tube station was great, and the neighborhood was quiet. The hotel was clean and had the amenities we needed.
Thomas, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Good location, but very hold and dirty.
1-night trip

6/10 Good

Bed was comfy no hot drinks in room but I only went to sleepso god enough if you're washing and sleeping
adam, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Faded glory but I’d go back to stay again

A little ragged around the edges but good value and a great location. Images are accurate but perhaps taken in the 80’s!
David, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in
Mechelle, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The place was shut when we arrived and still haven’t been given a refund
Gerard, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This should be taken off expedias list. It is the most run down disgusting dirty hotel I have ever stepped foot in and then walked out!
Simone, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We were upgraded to a four poster room which was very pleasant but the whole building is run down and needs updating, the service was good.
Charles, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Avoid at all costs. It is a scam, the hotel is nothing like the photos of the website. It is disgusting, unsafe and a hovel
Katie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Very quaint and comfy beds only down side no glasses or cups in room
Beverley, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Property needs some repairs, TV in room had no power cabl3, no remote, wallpaper was coming off in the bedroom, bathroom tap kept dripping, some draws were broken. Staff where friendly and kind. Furter the hotel is good to stay if you just need to sleep in the room.
Andrew Proud, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is in an excellent location, Our room was comfortable and spacious. The king size bed comfortable after a full day of activities in London. The shower, piping hot water every morning and night. Breakfast was more than adequate. A special shout out to Max, the day manager, always helpful and accommodating. We will come back.
