Great Value for Money

Great value for money. Not walking distance to any of the touristy stuff. But a 12 gbp uber ride gets you to the heart of london. There is a huge upscale mall very close where you can get your shopping done. Kensington is a lovely neighborhood, very walkable with lots of nice shops and resteraunts.

Only here for 2 days and The reception and bar areas of the hotel were of a good standard but the room we had was very dated. The shower had a sliding door and step to get inside…fortunately we are not large people but it would be very difficult if not impossible for larger folk to get in and out of shower! The room and bathroom were very small…no hooks to hang damp towels and no drinking glasses in the bathroom. The mini bar was empty. I found the reception and concierge staff very polite and helpful
