Good location. Shame about the cockcroach!
Good location for shopping. Shame about the cockcroach in the bathroom, and this was after it had been fumigated!

convenient but not comfortable.
Very difficult to find the hotel entrance, signage is poor. Rooms very small and access on stairs with cases very awkward. Requested gluten free bread at breakfast the night before but the morning staff new nothing about our request. not well managed as it appears to share the management team with a sister hotel that is a mile away.

Decent Hotel Close To Attractions
Stayed here after a night at winter wonderland and oxford street, it is close to Hyde Park, Kensington, Buckingham Palace and so forth. The room size is the size of a typical bedroom so don't expect a giant amount of space since this is a hotel that has been converted from a multistory property I believe. Overall is was decent for what we wanted was a one night stay, however if you got luggage and many bags this will likely be to small for you or family's of 2/3 sharing one room.

Fairly acceptable hotel
Quite small hotel in a okay location to central London. Room and bed was small and not so comfortable for 2 adults. Nice shower but it randomly went scalding hot for brief moments. Rear facing room view was not attractive. Narrow stairs to the lobby with no elevator so it would be a problem with heavy luggage. Elevator to the rest of the floors is a little scary. It kept stopping while descending one time. Nice breakfast room with view over Kensington high street and the park. Overall I felt we could have had better value for the price - especially considering the time of year.

4/10 Poor

It's tiny!
The rooms are tiny and the beds are only 4.5 foot wide. You wouldn't be able to even store two suitcases without tripping over them. I'm not kidding. There's no kitchen either so breakfast is cereal or toast only. If you need a cheap hotel in that location then it'll do for a night but don't use it as a base for a London city break.
