I love this hotel. It's beautiful, clean and the staff is always amazing. They take such good care of you. I was originally put into a very dark room and they immediately changed it when I asked.

United KingdomLocation is the best for easy tube access Small cozy on site dining, comfortable for a solo traveler although a bit pricey Access to museums and neighborhood shops
United States of AmericaGreat location. Very close to South Kensington Station. Friendly staff. Comfortable room with nice amenities. Clean and updated. Loved the heated floor and mirror in the bathroom.
United States of AmericaStaffs are friendly and the room was exceptionally clean.
ThailandLoved the staff, accommodations and the location. The bathroom was huge and fantastic shower!
United States of AmericaThe location is amazing. Just 2 minutes away from underground. Hotel was pretty new. Furnitures and decoration was very modern. Bed was comfortable and the room was very clean (I am very careful about it). Staff very nice and polite. They upgraded us and it was a very nice gesture. Even though we were upgraded, the room we stayed was not big also the bathrom but it really did not bother us. The price of the hotel is not cheap but considering the location and amenity of the hotel, I believe it is not easy to find a better one in London.
Netherlandsstaff was lovely and accommodating. all areas of the hotel were comfortable and service was excellent, from quickly delivering extra waters to serving a welcoming cup of tea after a chilly, wet day at the markets. We will stay again on our next visit!
United States of AmericaLocation. I mean the hotel is great, but the location is priceless.
MaltaIt’s a lovely small hotel in a beautiful neighborhood. Surrounded by wide choices of restaurants and cafes. Being next to South Kensington Station, with access to many buses and underground tubes, is very practical. The staff are extremely friendly and professional. The housekeeping is one of the best I’ve ever encountered during my travels, I raise my hat for them.
