Loved the area! Convenient for transportation around central London. Had a kitchenette in unit and a local grocery nearby. Saved some money by fixing our breakfast and packing some lunches. ( although the smell of food as we wandered took us in at times) Able to do laundry. Slept comfortably in an air conditioned room. Staff super friendly! Would stay here again!

Bizarre experience. Would never consider this hotel again nor recommend to others. On my first day, the fire alarm went off intermittently and not continuously, even as the hallways filled with smoke (this seems like a safety violation). The staff insisted nothing had happened, even after firefighters showed up. The hotel only has two small elevators, and one was broken for the entire duration of my 10 day stay (I spoke to the other guests and we calculated that it had been broken for at least the entire month prior). Guests, suitcases, and staff with service trolleys all used the remaining elevator and it was always busy and full. Taking the stairs meant having to walk through the garbage area. The room itself was fine. The AC worked and the bed was comfortable enough, but don’t expect to have it cleaned, your towels changed, or the trash taken out. For the ladies: the downcast lighting is atrocious and there are no plug sockets near the mirrors for you to style your hair. The free coffee machine in the lobby is truly carrying the team in terms of guest satisfaction.

On the plus side, excellent location, good access to the tube and food places. The rooms are clean, beds ok, everything you could reasonably need is provided. No frills, generic toiletries, cleaning only once during the stay. We did not mind this, overall very good, a tad pricey but what isnt in London?

Citadines South Kensington was a great choice for our stay in London. It suited our needs perfectly – clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. The on-site laundry facilities were especially convenient for a longer stay, and the location is excellent – close to Gloucester Road station, museums, and lovely local cafés. It’s a practical and reliable option for travellers who want a bit more flexibility and independence. We’d happily stay here again.
