Nice and quiet, let down only by minor issues. The lighting controls were on a panel - but it was difficult to read what controlled what - main issue for the bathroom. Breakfast food could have been hotter and no bacon! The door also rattled when people walked passed. But overall it was very clean and felt safe.

Excellent hotel near Olympia. Lovely quiet street near High St. Kensington too. Friendly staff, keen and modern and a decent breakfast too. Rooms are quite small but that wasn't a problem for me.

The hotel staff was very nice, the room was small, but clean with a comfy bed. The control/light switches were a bit odd, but we were only staying for 2 days so we just lived with it. The shower had 2 options: Rain shower or handheld. I chose the handheld but it was broken and I was worried about spraying outside of the stall, there was no shower curtain. They had a breakfast available downstairs with a lovely outdoor space. I would definitely stay here again.

I have given this hotel a five star review based on value for money. We had a great stay here. The standard room is not large but it is well appointed and the bed was comfortable. It was also quiet so meant for a good night’s sleep. It’s close to Kensington Olympia Overground which is very convenient. The public areas were spotless. The simple buffet breakfast included in the price made our stay excellent value for money. We would definitely stay here again.

Very nice except some noise in the morning
We stayed in the last room with double bed available. The room was very good, very clean and tidy. I especially like the lighting control next to the bed on both sides that controls every lights in the room. The magenta electric curtains are nice. However we were in the room farthest north west adjacent to the dining room in the basement. That make the first portion of sleep great because I was pitch black in the room with the lights off. But as the morning starts, since the window in you room looks into the kitchen area for the breakfast, you hear a ton of dishes clacking. Plus, I seems the door to enter the room is not very nosie insulated. So you hear the dishes and people going to eat from the door as well. Honestly the price was great for what we got. I'm sure if I had booked a bit earlier and got any other room in that floor, or better yet, on another floor it would've been 10/10. If I'm in need of accommodations again in London I certainly would consider this place again.

Exquisite little gem
Lovely find for a rare trip to London to see a show for a special birthday. Hotel is excellently small, clean, well equipped and comfortable. Yes the room was small but it had everything we needed. Just enough toiletries and tea/coffee supplies for us so no unnecessary waste. Breakfast included was a great touch. Again sufficient and simple but enough for us. People going for breakfast after 930 will have had limited choice but still a selection available. Staff all polite and friendly.

Lovely property that could use more attention
This is a gorgeous hotel. The room is lovely and high quality. The property is amazing, blending in with the row homes in a beautiful neighborhood in Kensington. What disappointed me was the amenities. It's hard to say these "ruined" my stay, as they aren't necessities, but were inconveniencing and keeping the room from getting a 10/10 from me. In my room, two of the three light buttons (all lights in one panel) were not working. Only the one far side of the bed worked, which meant turning everything off before leaving. The button for the automated curtains also did not work. My bathroom had a broken toilet paper holder, only had one towel set (usually there are 2?) and no bath mat in a shower that can easily spread water outside. My TV had maybe 1/3 of the channels offered. BBC One had no sound. Not all of the ITV 1-4 were available. Other channels had "Weak or No Signal" come up. When I asked the front desk about the TV first, they said "we called the television company and they said it's on our end". Which was very much a "we know and we're doing nothing about it", which made me not want to bother reporting anything else. Again, beautiful building, very nice rooms. Nice breakfast. Just needs a bit or care, attention, love, whatever, from the staff.

Do yourself a favour and avoid this place
Second night of my stay I noticed a leak in the bathroom, told the front desk about it. Three night I was told I couldn’t move room because they would have to move me every two nights to a different room. Fourth night I was told the leak was fixed, they lied. After having to wait 15 mins for the receptionist to finish his conversation about more shifts and his holiday, I was told that they would fixing the leak again in the morning. Again didn’t happen. Complained to hotels, General manager told me I would get a refund which 8 days later I’m still waiting for. Hotels.com couldn’t get hold of the hotel to file the complaint… that should tell you how pathetic they were acting. The morning of the sixth day, I moved out of the hotel, they clearly don’t care about their clients or their own reputation. Complete disgrace and I really wouldn’t consider staying there again. Don’t waste your time or money!
