The hotel is in an excellent location a short walk from the Earl's Court area with access to the Underground (both District and Paddington lines) and plenty of restaurants. The hotel had helpful staff, was very clean and was not too loud at night. My room was on the small side, so if you bring much luggage or plan to spend a lot of time outside of sleeping in your room, this might not be the hotel for you. Staying in October, I did not need to use any of the climate controls.

Comfortable, clean, modern, air conditioned room. Great buffet breakfast. Handy part of town if you’re wanting to get to the museums. Even though the hotel is situated next to a busy road, the room was perfectly quiet.

The hotel was in a great location, very easy to navigate and get to the Tube station to get around London! The room and bathroom were very clean, we had two people with two twin beds. There was enough space for our luggage and to unpack some. The staff was very helpful and kind when we were going in and out throughout the day.

Lovely stay at Pointa Kensington for Wimbledon Championships …very good location! Clean room and comfortable beds! The only downside was that there are no tea and coffee making facilities and the only usb point in the room wasn’t working, which I reported to staff. The staff were ALL pleasant, welcoming and friendly… would stay here again! Thanks

Rooms are clean and comfortable, ac was much appreciated during 30+ degree days. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast is an additional charge unless you are a point a member, which wasn’t clear from the Expedia booking. Location is very close to the Design Museum, Natural History Museum and V & A and very accessible to transit (under 8 minute walk to Earl’s Court station).

The room was nice but some days felt very warm, possibly because of the outside temp. A few chairs in the room and mini fridge would be nice or even easy access to ice to cool your drinks. Location was safe and walkable .
