Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was clean however the bed was extremely firm and the tub drain would not stay up so I had to remove for shower. Temperature in room had not control so that could not be changed. Loved location, amenities and staff friendliness. Would stay again.
Excellent location. Steps away from Piccadilly, Circle and District lines on Gloucester Rd stop. Starbucks and mini mart around the corner. Museums 2 blocks away and walking to Kensington palace and park. Walkable to South Kesington with plenty of restaurants.
Breakfast buffet was great and keeps you full throughout the day.
Friendly staff.
The hotel is lovely as you walk in, we stayed on the 3rd floor. Bedroom carpets were ripped, the corridor smelt of drainage and the windows didn’t shut. I would not stay at this hotel again. Much better places for half the cost
