NH Harrington Hall

I stayed in the hotel for about 1 week, standard king, and really was benefited from the excellent location, very close to the Gloucester Road station, 1 supermarket and 1 convenient store (Tesco Express), starbucks, and several restaurants around. 2 stops from Harrods, walking distance to National history museum and V&A museum. You can also take central/district line to Big Ben without changing trains. The decoration of the room is mainly in white, very elegant. room is very spacious, large windows... just one thing, the bed is a little bit hard for me. and very weird, one king sized bed has two small quilt. Not sure if it is the uniqueness of European hotel. and free wifi is offered, quite good. I took Piccadilly line from and to the airport, however, Gloucester Road station is not a step free one, thus I drew my luggage to walk for 1 stop to Earl's court station (a step free one) to take tube to the airport.

Service was very good with staff attentive at reception. Room had awful overhead lighting and stark decor. Hardwood floors, heating system hard to regulate, and not businessman friendly. Overpriced when compared to other hotels in the area.

I booked this hotel for it's proximity to the Underground and Victoria Station as we had travel plans requiring us to catch a bus there. The hotel was beautiful, our room was spacious and clean, nicely decorated.

NH Harrington Hall is in a great spot - hop off at South Kensington station or the one after and it's only a short walk. I travel by myself and I found this hotel was ideal for me. I didn't try the restaurant as I was out each night but there are good cafes nearby for breakfast. The hotel staff are very helpful, check in and check out were quick.

Our room was quite large however furnished in a very impractical way. Lots of wasted space, no shelves to put clothes on, strange bedside table with, again, almost no space to put your things, everything has to be on display. Large long table opposite the bed that could have been half of its size and some chest of drawers put in there instead. Small TV put on the side with very limited number of channels. When we arrived the window in the room was open (evening) and the room was very cold, so we asked for an additional heater, which was brought to us with a smile. That was nice. Breakfast selection is ok, however the omelets that we ordered were not really hot, like they have been standing and waiting for a while. Plenty of Spanish guests and spanish speaking staff. Good magazines to read in the lobby.

Great

We called to let them know we would be arriving late because of aircraft problems, and they said no problem-they had our reservation. When we arrived, our pre-paid expedia reservation was nowhere in their system, and they did not have the room we reserved. The next day they moved us from 2 separate rooms to a family room, but it was a horrible check-in experience.

Excellent location! Metro station is 1 minute walk. Close to Harrods, Hyde park, Museum of Natural History is in 7 minute walking distance. Dislikes: The hair dryer and heating in the room didn't work properly, but they fixed them right away we asked. Also, you can hear people in next room. The staff is very nice and helpful! Overall, it is a very good hotel!
