The location of the hotel is good, easy walk to Gloucester Road tube. The lift was helpful.

Tired, United Kingdom

Old fashioned decor in dining room. Great location. Superb staff, excellent service. I loved the booking of breakfast in advance

Michael, Ireland

I loved the regency era style room and common areas. The bed and linens (and 3 pillows for one side, 6 total) were so soft. I could have spent all day in bed, but that would have defeated the purpose of the trip. Also, the hotel is perfectly located within Kensington, plus near the underground. Plus, there are a lot of restaurants and Waitrose along Gloucester Road.

A classic English style with a lovely canteen in a posh area of London

We were given an upgrade to a four poster room which was beautiful and spacious with a excellent table and seating

Loved the massive bed, location, huge bathroom and mini patio.

Sarah, United Kingdom

Nice ambience in the lobby where breakfast is served. Food was fresh.

Stewart, United Kingdom

Charming staff, great location, cosy room, delicious breakfast. Terrific lighting (unusual for hotels these days!)

Gillie, United Kingdom

Very comfortable and tastefully furnished room although on this occasion was on the small side. Hotel has a very good ambience. Great value for money although rates are volatile. Perfect location for those wishing to be in south ken.

Timothy, United Kingdom

Fantastic room, location and super bed as well. Really a hotel we would come back to

“Awful! Do not stay at this hotel as it is poor quality for the price.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Double Room with Four Poster Bed
- • Stayed 1 night
눉The hotel is marketed on the basis that it has air conditioning - no its broken and its really hot all night! Tried to sleep with the window open but very noisy neighbours. No table fan available for guests. No tea or coffee making facilities in the room, no kettle available. Very poor for the price! Will never stay there again. Hoping for a refund as it was a terrible night, lack of sleep before the London Marathon.
눇The location of the hotel is good, easy walk to Gloucester Road tube. The lift was helpful.

- • Leisure trip

- • Superior Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
- • Submitted via mobile
눉There was a slight miscommunication. I had asked to change my reservation from 3 to 4 nights. Booking.com said to reserve the extra date separate. When I got there, the hotel was not aware. Fortunately, it worked out and I could stay in the same room. Also, the sink in the bathroom didn’t work well. When I turned on the hot water, it made a screaming nose, and the sink didn’t drain well. Fortunately the shower/tube worked well.
눇I loved the regency era style room and common areas. The bed and linens (and 3 pillows for one side, 6 total) were so soft. I could have spent all day in bed, but that would have defeated the purpose of the trip. Also, the hotel is perfectly located within Kensington, plus near the underground.
