We interacted with several people on the staff and all were very helpful and friendly. We needed to use the underground to go to all of the major sites, but the neighborhood was quiet and safe and there were shops and pubs within an easy walk.

Fresh towels and a tidy room everyday of our 4 night stay. We were ariving after hours and the staff went out of their way to ensure my family and I would be all set for the night. We enjoyed a bottle of wine on the lovely back patio one evening. They also had a great breakfast each morning, attentive staff, and the hotel is in a great area- quiet and close to the tube.

Nice old London building sensitively upgraded. Excellent shower, great breakfast choice and top London location. The seating area on the groundfloor was also very welcome. All very competitively priced. Would use again when I next need to be in this part of London. Only problem was the heat, but they provided a fan which was reasonably effective.

Lovely staff, I arrived early having booked a single room and they upgraded me to a double for free as they had it ready. Breakfast was standard continental. Only thing really was the room was very cold at night, seemed like very old windows

The hotel smells. The desk staff is disinterested at best. The front door is supposed to be unlocked until 11, was locked at 10:30. Front door supposed to be open by 7, was locked at 8:30. They don’t answer their WhatsApp calls. The breakfast was… edible I guess. It was just clean enough to justify not looking for a different place to stay for one night. Location is good.

Great Notting Hill hotel

This hotel is located in a beautiful neighborhood in the Notting Hill area. Front desk was wonderful & let us check in early & was always responsive to any questions. It is easy to get to the Underground which makes traveling in London a breeze. Great experience & I would stay there again.

Reception was very supportive. Located very close to Hyde park and kensington palace. The area around is very nice. The building is OLD but maintainted pretty well.
Verified review

6/10 Good

With very little effort small annoying errors could be fixed: dripping faucets, dead lamps, add bedside lamps, fix sealing lights and non functional roomsafe. Otherwise ok staff but lack of genuine interest in guests which perhaps can be expect for the type of guesthouse. Otherwise convenient close to underground or Kensington park.

The location was great! Felt very safe walking around as a female traveler, (the neighborhood is beautiful) and it was quite close to the metro station. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. The room and bathroom were clean and overall nice. We stayed in the triple room and the pull out bed was actually very comfortable. Would stay here again in a future visit to London for sure!
