The area was in a very convenient spot near the tube station which was very helpful for a less than like 5 minute of a walk staff and everything was very clean. very nice. although I would say considering it was a very busy season to get the room, you have to wait till exactly 2:00 or if not a little bit later which was not my favorite preference

An enjoyable overnight stay with excellent breakfast. I was allocated a disabled room which I didn’t need. I was on my own and it was disappointing not to be able to have a single room at more affordable price than the double king size bed and room.

Staff not very friendly. Booked two rooms but we ended up on two different floors. Asked staff to accommodate us being on same floor but that was a no. Overall rooms are very small and I don’t think I will be staying in this hotel again. Main advantage being so close to Kensington high street tube station and restaurants on this major street. But amongst all hotels I stayed in London (lots of them) this was one of the worst and over priced for what you get.

Th staff at this hotel are exceptional, especially in the breakfast room. The gym is amazing. Location superb. Housekeeping is sketchy at best. Too focused on getting you to check out and nowhere to be seen to get your room serviced. Sheets not changed in 8days, glasses and coffee cups never cleared and replaced - had me to wash them - room furniture never cleaned.
