    "The hotel location was good, with excellent amenities in the area. The room was fairly spacious, but our room 218 overlooked the front gardens, which meant that the traffic noise was very loud, and without earplugs would have caused me problems sleeping. The room was very clean, and the bed comfortable. Staff were most helpful and friendly, and the breakfast, although basic, was adequate. All in all, the hotel offered good value accomodation for a one night stay, but I dont think I would want to spend any longer - due to traffic noise in bedrooms at front - must remember to ask for a rear bedroom next time." (97862553)

    The location to the London Tube Gloucester Road was excellent, and the restaurants and bars in the area were great. The Hotel room was a good size, and the breakfast was adequate for the price.

    The single glazing at the front of the hotel made night time noisy, but I had read this in other reviews so took my ear plugs with me. Tea making facilities should be available. Cold tap made a terribe banging noise when first turned on - worried to use this during the night.

    "I would reccomend it if the location is essential for you as well as the money you spend. I would not recommend to you if a decent bathroom is important for you. Before arriving, I was considering the idea of booking a summer vacation with my kids, I was with a friend this time, but after I saw the bathroom I changed my mind and I will book with another hotel." (97497315)

    The location was great I knew the area and the hotel, from the outside, because I used to live nearby. The hall was very nice and so are the common bathrooms.

    The bathroom in the room very really tiny, old and not well kept, the shower curtain was old and dirty. You would not like to stay too long in it.

Das Personal war sehr hilfsbereit, der Hausmeister reparierte uns den defekten Kinderwagen, die Lage in South Kensington in walking distance zu Knightsbridge, Kingsroad und den Museen und guten Lokalen war hervorragend" (1686837)

    Could do with re-decoration as very old fashioned and tired. Toilet was loose and the toilet roll holder fell off the wall when I touched it!

    no tea and coffee facilities in room, very noisy with balcony door open and stuffy if shut. Checkin person not very welcoming, when I arrived dripping wet after longish walk!

    "Que era tan difícil contratar algo para unos clientes.. Si por internet doy datos de pago, por qué consta pago directo. Escribo al hotel, no contesta, llamo al hotel y me envian un impreso por fax, lo devuelvo cumplimentado con datos de credit card y los clientes al hacer el check-in tienen problemas.. Vuelvo a hablar por tf. con el hotel, aclaro la situación y me dicen que no cargarán el gasto a los clientes. Pero al hacer el check-out los clientes son obligados a dar su credit card por si Philips (nosotros) no pagamos.. Eso nos deja, como empresa, en una situación vergonzosa ante nuestros clientes. No volveré a contratar los servicios de ese hotel, ni haré más contrataciones por internet cuando sea para clientes." (97103149)

Easiest route south kensington station (underground). quiet area good links to public transport and very good value for money. I would definitely book here again next time." (99347323)

    lots, staff friendly but not over friendly, accomadation clean bed comfy

    bath was a little too small for one of the guests but if 5'4 or under its a fine fit, but had a shower but not alot of head room if you are over 6'6.

A Londres, attention aux tarifs excessifs de la restauration (séjours en 1/2 pension à ne pas négliger !)" (99971868)

    aus Fareham , United Kingdom;GB am  20. April 2007

    I liked the fact that the rooms were interconnecting so my young daughter could have her own little bedroom; this was better than 3 beds in the one room which is what most hotels offer for 3 people.

    The bath was rather small but this was ok and didn't affect my enjoyment of the hotel.

    "Overall a pleasant stay in a good, well heeled, central location with friendly and helpful staff. Plenty of choice of restaurants within easy walking distance. We certainly didn't feel threatened walking back to the hotel at night. The decor in the breakfast room could do with an update, but that is more a comment than a criticism." (99573927)

    Good location. Breakfast provided within price of the room.

    Traffic noise took a bit of getting used to - double-glazing would have helped ... but we are from the country! Also worth saying that the hotel is not on a main road.

Bathrooms old and cramped and room very hot - no thermostat to turndown radiators. Breakfast was an experience not to be repeated- truly awful! But a good position for visiting Kensington and Chelsea." (99842244)

    Dated bathrooms, no non-smoking area to sit in other than room. Room very hot.

Easy walking distance to Harrods, Royal Albert Hall, museums etc. Cooked breakfast available at extra charge but the continental breakfast was more than adequate, cereal juice fruit toast marmalade tea and coffee. No tea making facilities in bedrooms but all drinks available in small comfortable bar at reasonable cost. Free left luggage facilities. Rooms available from 12 noon. A very reasonably priced hotel but the rooms are small and were very hot. We couldn't open the window and there is no air conditioning." (3305363880)

    "The service and location are good in this hotel, and it's clean, but the room facilities are quite basic for the price. I'm a frequent traveller on business throughout England, and I'm not sure why it's only London hotels that do not offer a cooked breakfast included in the price ('Continental Breakfast' was basically toast or cereal!) or tea and coffee in the rooms. An OK hotel for overnight business or a weekend break, but I wouldn't want to stay for much longer." (3304788824)

    "El hotel me ha gustado, estaba en una buena zona y de fácil acceso. Sin embargo, elegí ese hotel porque estaba el desayuno incluido y de haber sabido como era a lo mejor hubiera elegido otro hotel" (2936489)

    El hotel estaba bien situado, si bien la habitación era pequeña y el cuarto de baño también, aunque estaban muy limpios. Sin embargo el desayuno era muy pobre y me parece que no estaba al nivel del hotel

    Creo que sería necesario que mejoraran el desayuno, nuca he estado en un hotel con un desayuno tan escaso, para eso sería mejor que no lo incluyeran en el precio de la habitación.

    "I thought the previous reviews I read were quite accurate. The hotel is in a great location, the staff is very friendly and helpful, the public spaces are welcoming and comfortable. Our triple room (rear of 1st floor) was spacious and quiet. The sleeping room decor is a dated (pink wallpaper), but the room was very clean. As noted by previous reviews, the beds were quite hard and the bathroom was small. I didn't mind the size of the bathroom because it was very clean, and had both a bath and shower (with great pressure). Also, the breakfast is basic but adequate and the coffee was great. I would definitely return, especially if traveling with my family." (2739451)

    The location, the staff, the reception and lounge space, the fact that I could get triple room at a reasonable price.

    "The hotel is nicely located in Central London, so a convenient spot for touring the city. But like many London hotels, the rooms are small, pokey, in serious need of updating (e.g., bathrooms), and very expensive compared to North America - you just don't get much for your pounds. I also get the sense that there is a very high turnover of staff, many who spoke only minimal English (although were very pleasant), and don't really know the area or how things are operating."

    Centrally located, walking distance to two tube stations, restaurants, shopping, etc.

    "This hotel is excellent for those that wish to stay in a choice neighborhood, and don't mind the outrageous prices that European hotels for Motel accomodations. Rooms of this quality would be $65-$70/night (approx. 32 pounds), in the USA. However, this seems to be true of most hotels in London. That being said, the common areas are lovely, the staff attentive, but the rooms are small, and in serious need of updating. Be sure to request a room away from the front of the hotel, as my travelling companions had to deal with street noise (had to leave windows open as there is no A/C in room.) Great location, convenient walk to Underground station @ Gloucester Square." (1900865)

The hotel was as described in all websites we visited, so there were no surprises. Location of the hotel is wonderful. We loved the neighborhood. Very convenient to the tube. We had a front room, next to the street, but still a quiet room. Staff was friendly and efficient. If someone is looking for a charming English hotel with a local, neighborhood feel, this is the place for them." (1927570)
