8/10 Very good

Great location with easy access to public transport friendly vibrant area with very good customer service
Marc, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Small, but well appointed and comfortable room.
brenda, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Small but neat and clean hotel, typical of London. Staff is helpful and friendly, location is close enough to get around. Only complain would be the lack of elevator - my room was located on the 3rd floor and had to climb up 5 flights of stairs - not easy with luggage.
TING HEY, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was very hot
Ann, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hot and loud

Don't go there during a heat wave, it's about 10C hotter in the rooms than outside. Also don't forget your earplugs because you will hear doors slamming until late at night and early in the morning.

Perfect stay.
Andzhela, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very friendly front desk that answered many questions. Very close to the Tube so easy to get anywhere. Enjoyed walking around Kensington and Hyde Park.

The friendliest of people
Shawn, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice, comfortable rooms (friend, me). But she was at the front of our building and had a group roomed around her: noisy (my room was off on its own, at the back: quiet). Also, she was located where the outside door BANGED shut every time someone entered/exited. Maybe they could adjust the setting so that it closes quietly?
Rebecca, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had the most wonderful stay at this hotel. The staff was absolutely amazing and kind and helpful. The room was comfortable in the location could not have been better. It was walkable to restaurants, and of course, Kensington Gardens. We even walked all the way to Kensington Palace. it was a wonderful day. Highly recommend.
Bonnie, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

We’ve got room on 5th floor and building is old and has no elevators. Other than that everything else was good.

Robert, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

We enjoyed our stay! Lots of restaurants and subway stations on walking distance. We stayed on the top floor, which with heavy suitcases was a bit of challenge
Esra, 2-night trip

We loved our stay. The location was perfect for concert at Royal Albert Hall
Tom, 5-night trip

The hotel has an excelent ubication. It is in very good conditions.
Luis Manuel, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

We thought we had selected same hotel as last year. No elevater and old fashion building. Worrried about no fire escape on third floor.
Uwe, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean and quiet property, met our needs. Only downside was there was no lift so we had to lug luggage down and up a few flights of stairs.
Kelsey, 2-night trip

very nice staff and clean room, all i needed for a short stay
Sophie Marie Kathrin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely hotel for the money. Minutes from the tube station. Very clean and comfortable. If driving, it’s worth pre booking somewhere through a parking app.
Paul, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place for solo travellers

Great location, clean rooms, smooth check in/out and luggage storage.
Brigitte, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Due to lack of conditioning, I had hard time even when the max daily temperature was 80-82 degrees. I cannot imagine staying in a room with 90+. The room is small and awfully heated by the sun with no ventilation whatsoever.
Valentyna, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

great hotel, cozy, modern
