Bed and breakfast Windsor House Hotel

This neighbourhood is a great choice for travellers interested in architecture, monuments and entertainment – Check location 12 Penywern Road, Kensington and Chelsea, London, SW5 9ST, United Kingdom – This neighbourhood is a great choice for travellers interested in architecture, monuments and entertainment – Check location – Metro access

West Brompton: only 6 minutes away! (550 yards on foot)

Earls Court: only 2 minutes away! (100 yards on foot)

I booked a single but got a family room which was nice. Toilet, shower and washbasin were all in cubicles in room, and were clean and worked ok. The room was nice and warm with a modern self-standing heater. My bed was comfortable, but the other beds in the room didn't look like they were. There was limited bedding though it didn't matter as it was so warm. The room had character with high ceiling and ornate plasterwork. Everything is very old and shabby, which for me was part of the charm, but those with higher standards might not be happy. Wifi worked ok. Breakfast was good - cereals, toast and boiled egg.

Marcus, United Kingdom

Good breakfast. Clean room. A little noisy as front room and shower hard to adjust temp but great location.

Amanda, New Zealand

Near underground and a lot of shop, very convenient

Yi, Taiwan

The staff didn’t speak a lot of English but they were very pleasant. Breakfast in the morning was nice and the place was clean

Elizabeth, USA

Friendly staff, prime location, outdated rooms and equipment but still extremely cheap for the price, breakfast has a friendly lady or young man giving you hot toast, buffet boiled eggs, cereal selection, squash juice and hot drinks tea or coffee. as I said cheap for the price but dont expect 5 star when paying cheap prices. wifi not so good if youre on the 3rd floor

Seleni, United Kingdom

There was nothing to like about this hotel it is simply appalling!! It should be closed down. I have stayed in most of the hotels in this Road - these are acceptable based on price. However the Windsor House Hotel is horrendous.

Awful place. Dirty, bad smell, horror staff...not appropriate even for dogs. We don't understand this place to be available on Booking

“It was clean and hospitable but privacy and location are not great.”

- • Group of friends
- • Triple Room with Shared Toilet
- • Stayed 4 nights

It was so cold. We slept with many layers of clothes and blankets and still shivered through the night. Also the location of the room was awful. We had to squeeze behind an open door to the basement and then had to squeeze the opposite direction passed the huge dresser inside our room door. Also not ideal that the shower was in the room because there is zero privacy (this isn’t what I had in mind when the booking site said shared toilet and I feel like it wasn’t very up front about that).
The staff didn’t speak a lot of English but they were very pleasant. Breakfast in the morning was nice and the place was clean

It was very old. Breakfast was just from 7 to 8am The heather was not working well and it was winter. They didn't provide proper coverts for the night, was so cold we had to sleep with winter jackets and still feel the cold. We were 2 and they gave us a room with 5 beds. The bathroom was big But all looked so old and I gave the impression that was dirty.
The staff was helpful We could leave our bags there after the check out Good location, very close to underground station

Everything. The room was dirty, loud, facilities is old and even the door key to our room was awful. Our room had a dirty carpet with stains on, and there was mold everywhere. Place should be shut down. Will not even recommend this to my worst enemy.

“Horrendous, I am in the process of reporting this hotel to the Local Authority re Health & Safety!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Triple Room with Shared Toilet
- • Stayed 1 night
The Bedrooms are FILTHY - Carpets, mattresses, pillows, murtains, paintwork - all appalling! The Shower has mould around the tray. Exposed wires sticking out of redundant wall socket. The Room smelt very bad. Curtains torn. Beds condition - not fit for sleeping on!! The Photos on the website do not show a true and accurate picture of how this Hotel is - I would recommend avoiding this hotel at all costs!
There was nothing to like about this hotel it is simply appalling!! It should be closed down. I have stayed in most of the hotels in this Road - these are acceptable based on price. However the Windsor House Hotel is horrendous.

Facility's, lack there of, there was one heater but it didn't heat the room what's so ever, therefore the room was absolutely freezing and there was no warm blankets, what was given was basicly sheets so the whole two nights we where cold, no toilet in the room but there was a shower? Bad musky smell all around the room, only one plug socket in the whole room, the water top was broken also, no tv, and when asking for help the staff where not helpful at all. Im not sure what the other rooms where like but this is what are's was like, are view was of a wall, for the price of £144 for 2 night I expected more from this hotel, for what we got they should be charging hostel prices. If we where able to find a near by hotel to stay in for the second night which we weren't successful in finding, we would not have stayed the second night, Would definitely not recommend this hotel what's so ever and surely won't be back.
