We had a wonderful stay at The Portobello Hotel! The staff was wonderful, location was ideal for walking/ underground transport and overall the hotel had a comfortable vibe for the rainy London weather!

This was a quirky nice hotel in a beautiful area of London. The garden facing room we stayed in for 9 nights was perfect. There was plenty of room for our belongings. The room was quiet and the bed was very comfortable. We had an enormous bathroom with a separate shower and separate tub . The staff was very friendly and helpful especially Evelyn. We will definitely return on our next trip to London

Our room at The Portobello Hotel was huge and richly decorated...we loved spending time in it ,which is unusual for hotel rooms. Breakfast was delightful. Staff was very accommodating including keeping our bag as we went off to Egypt. Hotel is walking distance to Portobello market and lots of great restaurants and Holland Park!

8/10 Very good

Overall, this is the hotel for you if you want to live in cute quaint house in Notting Hill, and not in a soulless high rise hotel. The aesthetics are definitely the draw card here. If this isn't your main concern, then there are other better options. See my list of pros and cons: Pros: *The room is very cute. Feels like living in a period drama. High ceilings with big windows for views and lots of natural lighting. *Service was good and proactive. *The street the hotel is on is like a cul de sac. It is very cute. The hotel makes you feel like you actually live in London rather than simply in a hotel. The street felt safe and quiet. * Large closest for putting away clothes. * The bed was really large. Cons * Location was okay but not as convenient as other places I've stayed at. Notting Hill station is a 10 min walk from the hotel and supermarket and pharmacy is also about a 10 minute walk. *Shower was way too small, even as a petite female. I had to dry myself in the bedroom as no space. * The property is old and so you would often hear doors closing and people talking through the walls, which would disturb sleep * Although there is someone manning the desk near the front door at all times, there is no pin or lock or security to open the front door and so strangers could just enter the hotel. No security in the hotel as far as I am aware other than the concierge person *The bed mattress was too soft and my entire body sank into the bed, which caused some muscle aches.

The property is in a great location and still quiet at night. The bed was extremely comfortable but the room a little cramped and the bathroom very small.

Lovely stay at The Portobello

Absolutely loved our stay here. The room was bright and cozy. Loved the boutique feel. Staff were helpful and friendly. Perfect location to transport. Quiet and pretty neighbourhood. Would stay here again in a heart beat!

Quaint and charming don’t quite fully describe this little gem of a hotel. Authentically homey, well appointed, and perfectly located. Nicest staff, great breakfast and a lovely living room. Our room was spacious for any city - felt luxuriously ample for London/Europe. It was a bit loud - we could hear upstairs neighbors walking around - nothing a sound app couldn’t muffle.

Lovely place to stay. Great ambience, comfortable bed, quiet location. The staff were all amazing. For our 5 day stay, I had a relaxing breakfast downstairs, and then requested my wife's breakfast in our room. On the 4th day of our stay, I forgot to order her breakfast before I returned to our room. Shortly after I got there, the phone rang. It was reception asking if my wife would like her breakfast sent up. It doesn't get better than that!
