The hotel location is FAB, and Kensington is a great place to stay, however the staff are very rude and unfriendly and the rooms are pokey and limited. The bathroom was a little grubby too.
How this hotel got 3 stars I have no idea. Its also massively overpriced. You can find a much better deal elsewhere.
More like a Hostel not a Hotel! Posted: Sat, Mar 01 2008

We stayed here 30th Dec 2007-03rd Jan 2008.
I cant believe its called a hotel it was more like staying at a hostel.....! The best thing was the location like other people say its ideal for going in and out for your sightseeing trips.Earls court tube is 2mins away,and all you have to purchase is a zone 1-2 oyster card for the transport.
The bad things.....
1.loose tiles on bathroom floor
2.Lights not working plus Dangerous.
3.Bedroom Carpet/Hotel Carpet Dirty...Bedroom didnt appear
to get vacuumed.
4.Toilet space and shower space very small,if you are of larger build you will have no chance of sitting down on the toilet.
5.Breakfast very basic,toast always undercooked.Warm Bread!!!
6.Handrails leading up to the hotel entrance very insecure.
How this Hostel/Hotel Passes the Health and Safety Checks required is beyond belief........
We only spent 1 hour a day maximum in the room to get changed thank god for that.
So if you want location its not bad.....
otherwise if you want a decent standard hotel forget this one.
Nous pensions être dans un hôtel 3 étoiles. N'étant pas des plus exigeants (les hôtels 3 étoiles de Paris ne sont pas très luxueux), nous ne nous attendions donc pas à un palace. Mais dès l'arrivée, l'accueil fut déplorable, la moquette était sale, l'aspirateur et le ménage n'avait pas été fait, des cheveux ont été retrouvés sur les meubles. Le deuxième jour, notre lit n'a pas été fait, les draps non changés, l'aspirateur toujours pas passé. Petit déjeuner restreint en sus.
