Noisy, noisy, noisy! Had to change rooms as the noise from the nearby elevator and doors closing was annoying! New room was worst than the old room as it was a foot away from a loud closing fire door! Bathrooms are a hazard! A huge slippery high bathtub dominates the bathroom! The best thing about this hotel is the location.

Sadly the room was quite cold, everything in the room felt quite old in respect of the living space and it wasn’t a comfortable night. Location is very good with the South Kensington tube station round the corner.

The room (Number 336) was small which is not unusual for the style of building, however the bathroom was extremely small and cramped and there was no space available to put toiletries etc. The flannels, toothbrush cups etc were located on the toilet cistern as there was no where else for them to be placed. Also, the shower water temperature was barely luke warm. The room was extremely tired and in need of refurbishment. The carpet was very old and dirty and there were dubious marks and stains on the headboard, chair and carpet. Breakfast was very disappointing. The hot selection was cold, the toaster was broken and the milk jugs were empty. The hygiene standard at the buffet could do with some attention. The Reception staff were friendly and helpful but I would not stay here again.

Booked a premium room with king-size double bed which judging from the hotel photo looked spacious with a double settee. The room given to us (20) was neither spacious or had a double settee so disappointed.

We stayed at a Family Room at Radisson Blu in South Kensington for 4 nights. The stay overall was pleasant and the hotel is located in a great place with access to tube and so many shops and restaurants. The room was OK but the cleaning was done later in the afternoon rather than mornings. The access to the room required multiple steps which was quite challenging with 3 pieces of luggage. I wish they had informed us or offered some help when we checked in to the room. Also, for a family room, there weren't enough drawers and the entrance hall was occupied by a 4th bed that was folder away. We expected a bit more space and room quality but the beauty of London and the surrounding areas very well compensates for that.
