Kohei from Germany (7/10)
The location is close to Gloucester Road station. There is a Tesco (supermarket) and restaurants nearby. The hotel facilities and size are satisfactory for the price. Breakfast was also not bad. The staffs were also very friendly and happy to help us store our luggage before check-in and after check-out.
Nerida from United Kingdom (8/10)
The location was great—right in South Kensington, close to museums, supermarkets, and the Underground, which made getting around the city really convenient. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-kept, with everything I needed. It was in a quiet area, so I could relax easily. I especially appreciated how peaceful it was, as it made the experience even more enjoyable. The combination of convenience and comfort made this a great place to stay.
Lani from Ireland (7/10)
location was brilliant near the underground and lots of restaurant around… breakfast was good .
David from United Kingdom (8/10)
Good hotel with very friendly and helpful staff at a good price for London. Reasonably comfortable bed (not fabulous but more than just ok). A well equipped room and a good breakfast – not just the usual ‘continental’. Absolutely fine choice for a night or two while in the South Kensington area.
