We loved the location of this property, very easy to get around, there are both tube and bus stations very close by. The rooms are fine, nothing to complain about but not particularly comfortable, there is some good storage. The beds are pretty firm. We didn’t spend much time in the hotel as we were out exploring most of the days. Overall enjoyed our stay, would consider staying again but also interested in trying another property. Staff were very helpful and welcoming!

Loved the location, looking at the treetops of Kensington Gardens and walking through the parks on the way to other sites. Nice to be able to open windows. As with every hotel, a few more wall hooks would be helpful!
