It's a lovely old London hotel is a beautiful and great location. The staff are brilliant and so helpful. We went in the heatwave, which was a problem as there's no air conditioning and for safety our window on the 4th floor didn't open very far. The staff did what they could, closed the curtains put the fan on brought round cold water. You could get ice from the bar. But it was a struggle to sleep. I would visit again but check the weather first.

4/10 Fair

Paid a lot of money for a “superior double” and it was the smallest room we’ve ever stayed in. Literally 6 inches at the bottom of the bed and a tv on that wall to negotiate. I get this is London but this would be a small single at best. There were also boxed in pipes to negotiate whilst trying to squeeze through the 6 inches gap. Stubbed my toes a few times in the night ! The bed was very firm and the pillows flat foam. Did ask for some different pillows but they never arrived. Don’t usually write reviews but feel this needed saying. Can’t fault the location though. 5 mins from Gloucester rd tube and 15 min walk to the Albert hall/ 5 mins to natural history museum.

6/10 Good

+ the location was great, friendly staff, wifi worked (but was not the fastest), ”cleaning” everyday. - no ac (we were there in april so no problem really but in the summer we could NOT have stayed there), rock hard beds and cushions (may be someone elses dream but not mine), windows could only open up by 15-20 cm, the cleansiness of the room was not terrible but not good either. They had breakfast but we never ate it so cant say anything about it. I do recommend to eat breakfast at nearby Fait Maison or Elixis!

Only stayed for one night, but the stay was fantastic. We stayed in a quad room, one queen bed, and two twins. The room was incredibly spacious, and had a lovely stocked bathroom. The view looked right over the quaint neighborhood street and it was so picturesque. They held onto our luggage while we explored the rest of Kensington. The natural history Museum is also a quick five minute walk nearby. Would highly recommend this place to stay!
