We love this hotel. Staff is great, ac was great in a hot July, first room was a little small but then we switched after being away in the cotswolds and new room was great. Great location for breakfast and meals but the hotel has great offerings. We loved in London for years and really like the proximity of Meliá and staff and rooms

This is a great location and exceptional staff. The room is nicely arranged w robes, a tea kettle and complimentary coffee and tea. While we were there, there was a planned hot water outage overnight, and elevator service which was a bit of a nuisance but overall a great stay. I would definitely return.

The hotel is ideally located— in the heart of Kensington, a short walk to Museum row and Kensington Palace, and just steps away from the underground ( with service via the Picadilly line direct to Heathrow). A lovely, well appointed property. Excellent hot and cold breakfast, with a lot of choice.
