Best Hidden Gem in Kensington
Absolutely loved my room and its quaint little patio. The room and bathroom were huge and well appointed. Perfect location minutes from the tube, in the heart of it all. Staff were friendly and accommodating. This is my new home in London.

Nice Room - Shame about the patio
Garden room - Not sure. The only living plants were the weeds…… Also overlooked. The room itself was lovely however.

Great little spot
Room was good, small (as expected) but comfortable. I was surprised by how worn out and frayed the towels were. The staff were lovely. My room was right next to the elevator, so got a bit of noise/vibration from that but it wasn't terrible. Otherwise, the AC unit provides excellent background white noise.

I loved this hotel. Great location, clean, friendly staff. For a single traveler, the room was a perfect size (might be small to others). You can't beat the location, 7 minute walk to Earl's Court station.
