Good place at reasonable price

The original room was twin beds. it was changed next day to king bed at no additional cost. The first night they triedto sell me an adapter for my computer. Next morning they gave it to me free! They respect your wishes for cleaning the room.

Clean, good location for good price

The hotel was in a good location, easily accessible by public transit, and the room was very clean. The room was a little outdated, with most of the appliances (TV, hair dryer, etc.) and decor looking like it came from the early 90s. Taking a shower was annoying because the shower head made the water too powerful for the flimsy shower curtain. Every time you stepped out of the bathtub, you put your foot into a large puddle of water.

The location was excellent, close

The location was excellent, close to underground and bus lines, which gave us short travel time to downtown and main attractions. The breakfast was great with a good variety and selection. The staff was helpful. The bed in the room was too soft for our taste, the bathroom had too few amenities (f.ex. only 1 soap for both sink and bathtub) and the hotel was charging GBP 20/day for in-room internet access.

Hilton Kensington

The concierge service was impeccable. They are probably the most helpful I have ever encountered. The rest of the staff was wonderful too.
