An enjoyable stay. The reception staff were really helpful and rooms had everything we needed. Nice area, with Kensington park on your doorstep. We would certainly look to stay here again. Great value for money in London.

Thank you so much for hosting me. I would have liked for the room to be made or at least the trash to be taken out on a daily basis.

This wasn't quite what we expected, but we enjoyed our stay. The room and bathroom were quite small, but met our needs. The breakfast was adequate, with plenty of pastries, yogurt, brie/meats but no hot food options. There was usually a staff member around, but not set up like a hotel with a front desk for service. Location is lovely, with Kensington Gardens right across the street.

Great experience at this hotel! Rooms are clean, staff is very helpful, and it’s located in a great area of London. Rooms are small, but that was perfectly fine since I didn’t spend a lot of time in the room.
