Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, offering fantastic views. The staff was friendly and helpful. The location was convenient, close to public transportation and main attractions. However, the dining options were limited, and the air conditioning in the room was not very effective.
The hotel is situated in a lovely neighborhood on Cromwell Road, very close to Gloucester Road tube station, making it convenient to explore local attractions. The rooms are equipped with excellent facilities and offer a spacious bathroom with good sound isolation, plus a delightful small balcony facing Kensington Town. The service is attentive and covers everything from the desk clerk to room service, providing a welcoming atmosphere. While the dining options are limited to Belgian waffles on the lower level, the facilities are satisfactory, offering a comfortable stay overall.
The hotel is ideal if you wish a cozy bed, small but lovely balcony overlooking Kensington Town, and a king-size bed. However, the room is quite narrow at about 80 cm width. It offers great value for money and a peaceful neighborhood setting.
The hotel offers lovely rooms with a spacious bathroom and a charming balcony overlooking Kensington Town. The service is top-notch with friendly staff. It's situated in a beautiful neighborhood within short walking distance to the tube stations. The dining options are excellent, especially for those looking for gluten-free dishes.
The hotel is located in a lovely residential neighborhood, within a short walk to the tube station and close to the main shopping areas and attractions. The rooms are spacious, with a high-up small window that lets in plenty of natural light, and the bathrooms are roomy enough. However, the service could be improved in terms of responsiveness. The hotel provides a warm welcome drink upon arrival, which is a nice touch.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The lovely small balcony facing Kensington Town was a charming touch to the room. The sound isolation was fantastic, and having an ironing board available was so convenient. The king-size bed was incredibly comfortable.
The hotel offers a cozy stay with lovely views from the small balcony overlooking Kensington Town. The rooms are spacious with well-equipped bathrooms. However, the hotel lacks an ironing board in the rooms.
The hotel is ideally located in a residential neighborhood within walking distance of several museums and many pubs. The rooms offer a fantastic view of Kensington Town from a lovely small balcony, and the king-size bed ensures a comfortable stay, though the absence of an ironing board could be inconvenient at times. The service from the desk clerk to the doorman is top-notch, offering various amenities like room service, dry cleaning, housekeeping, laundry, and a welcoming drink. The iconic sandwiches served on the lower level are a must-try, providing a unique dining experience. However, to compete with nearby outlets, some improvements in the dining options could enhance the overall experience. The location close to the tube and the Earl's Court stop of the turn station is convenient for exploring the city, though additional facilities could add more value to the stay.
