The Kenilworth  

We liked the location. Would recommend eating at beef just down through road. Was fantastic. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room service was fantastic. Great cocktails, beautiful garden area and modern rooms. Overall a lovely stay.

The courtyard and cocktail bar.

The size of our room was too small.

Friendly staff

The Kennilworth is a cracking little place. It is a small pub built in an old terrace building. So it has little seating areas. The rooms out the back are in converted outbuildings. These are high spec. It has a great wetroom and superb shower. THe staff are great. It has reasonably priced nice wine in the bar/pub. The main street has a good selection of restaurtants so they dont need one themself. I'm in that area for business quite a lot and norm ally stay in 4* big hotels. although this is not a "hotel" in my opinion but a bar with superior accommodation out the back. I prefer it to the large hotels in the area. I'll always look here first for availability...... see car keys in the negative section.

You have to leave your car keys in case anyone needs out. My car is not insured for anyone to drive except me. I think next time I'll leave it in a nearby street.

It is a small boutique hotel that has obviously been lovingly/thoughtfully designed and decorated. Very comfortable, good sized and well appointed rooms, extremely clean and well equipped with an excellent bathroom and free wifi. Staff were so friendly and welcoming and I had a really good nights sleep. I was expecting more of a "corporate" hotel feel and it really wasn't what I expected but I would certainly return and recommend it either for business visitors or for a romantic weekend break.

Comfortable boutique style hotel with good facilities and excellent contintal breakfast. Award winning and popular cocktail bar.

location

very dark

Room is super, but is not quite what we were expecting we were in the rear in a seperate building - a modern detached house that had been converted, massive room probably 25 x 17, plus an ensuite, bang and olufsen electrical and really clean. The bar was a very trendy cocktail bar, lovely drinks.

Parking was an issue, its in the city centre and realistically the only place to park is at the rear of the bar area - space for about ten cars, but 6 are in columns behind each other. the deal was that we leave keys in reception, we had travelled in our ferrari and didnt fancy that as it would have invalidated our insurance, Theres no restaurant on site, so we were told pretty much we needed to stay in the vicinity and were actually quite on edge all evening, worrying about blocking some one in.

the cocktail bar at the hotel was superb it had such a great selection to choose from and the decor was excellent too

The cocktail bar

Polite staff and huge selection of whiskies!

Lovely rooms. Brilliant cocktail bar

it was our second visit to the hotel. It has a feel all of its own.quirky,funky. personal but professional. Love the bar area at night,especially as it stayed open late for guests,

The chef has a lay in on a Sunday so no fry up.(however other food available was very fresh and tasty)
