The hotel is very beautiful with wonderful design and decor. The bed and pillows are comfortable and the bedding is high quality. The bathroom was clearly designed by an italian - with form winning hands down over function. No one tested the practicality of it clearly. Problems with flooding, nowhere to put a shower mat, no room for toiletry bags, etc... The hotel does not answer their phone to outside callers, so we did have a panic day where we needed them and couldn't get in touch. They were only minimally responsive to our situation once we did return to the hotel to speak to them.

The Kimpton Fitzroy was lovely, but it was the staff that made it so lovely. From Andrew and Jack, the doormen, to the lovely Naseera, Fredo, Malichi, Monica, Alban, and so many others. The food in the brassiere was delicious, and some of the best I've eaten. Loved it and all the kindness I was shown. Hope to get back there.

I booked two rooms for 2 days each. Paid for both rooms in full through Expedia months prior. The hotel stay was perfect as well as the staff. When I returned home I noticed the hotel charged me 1,760 for vat and hotel taxes. On Friday I called the hotel to straighten out the charges, and they said they would get back to me later that day. No calls were returned and the charges have not been reversed.

A very pleasant stay overall. The hotel is stylish, clean, and well maintained, with staff who were consistently helpful and welcoming. Our room was on the smaller side, but we knew this in advance and found it comfortable. The location was excellent—just steps from the Piccadilly line, which made it easy to explore London without needing a car. Perfect for seeing the major sights while still having a comfortable base to return to.
