A good choice of food at the English breakfast. Perfect position near attractions: Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park and Royal Albert Hall, Westfield, and Westfield shopping centre which has about 50 restaurants and stays open until 10pm, and nicely decorated room. Plus, walking distance to Robert Dundas.

The experience was very very good and I would love to come back. It was in a very central location, easy to reach the centre by bus or taxi. Had tea and goodies at George's Cafe, nestled 1 km of the hotel. The staff were decent and lively throughout my visit.
Their staff were quite busy.

Extremely convenient and lovely little venue, incredible location near to public transport, the pub during the day/evening, and Kensington Palace, appreciated our stay. Booked a room with huge window. Coffee, a storage, and a hair dryer were a huge plus.

Nicely furnished and recently renovated units with a very comfy bed. Coffee, a storage, and a hair dryer — very useful. Magnificent location in a very nice area just off Kensington at a reasonable price as well as excellent pub / restaurant. And 15 mins walk to a Japanese garden. Totally very very good stay of one night.

The hotel was set in a very central area close enough to an easy ten minute walk to the Design Museum, the main attractions and taxi or Uber. Plus, a Japanese garden was not very far from the venue.
