Room was spaceous, bathroom clean. When we asked for more teas, milks etc for bedroom we got it. It was located close to our purpose for staying there, hospital appointment stay over. Central to other amenities for places to eat out and places to visit, such as V&A museum.

Old hotel. Not in a good way. Smelled like mothballs. Lack of elevators meant lugging suitcases up and down stairs. Staff was nice enough.

The room was very hot when we arrived and the sash window wouldn't stay open as it was broken. We had to stuff our towels in the gap for air all night. Staff were friendly, breakfast was nice and entry and exit to the hotel was safe.

The staff were really friendly and helpful. The room was well cleaned, although it could do with a little TLC. The bedding was fresh and spotless, one of the mattresses was rather lumpy. It was quiet. The hotel is within minutes walking from the museums, the Royal Albert Hall, cafes, restaurants and the tube station.

This Hotel came up in a search for 3/4 star hotels, that it is not. Upon googling the hotel, it is listed as a refurbished hostel at 2stars! It is very dated and not what can be called refurbished, with cracked plaster, exposed pipes, I had to hang a towel over the bathroom fan to cover the window, no heating in the bathroom, clump of hair stuck to my foot on arrival, breakfast basic compared to any other hotel and no reception area apart from in the breakfast room, which is shut from 10pm and windows covered, where I think staff sleep, as a sheet was hanging out of the side of a sofa bed chair next to thendesk(which is all in the breakfast room
.where poorly hung dated floral curtains were not even opened for breakfast. This was meant to be a treat away aside hospital checks and I found it depressing and as a single traveller, not overly comfortable! The inner door in my room could not be used as a second security as the Yale lock was hanging off. As well as the shower room, which was clean, there was a basin in the bedroom, which didn’t drain and the pedestal was taped over the broken away side. Grubby old night storage heaters still in situ, although there were working gas radiators.. hardly slept both nights due to the creaking floorboards and doors shutting loudly in early hours, prettymuch a restless uncomfortable stay sadly. I mostly blame Expedia for misrepresentation of a low budget hotel. Staff were pleasant. Totally overpriced. Location great.

Ondank een prima locatie is het hotel zeer gedateerd. Krakende vloeren, gehorig badkamer heeft zijn beste tijd gehad want wc trok niet goed door en spiegel heeft geen stopcontact en geen verlichting. Het ontbijt is op de koffie en de sapjes na zeer minimaal. Vooral de croissants waren niet te eten. we hebben er 3 nachten geslapen maar zijn 2 keer ergens anders wezen ontbijten. Er was totaal geen uitzicht vanuit het hotel. Bedden waren wel ok en schoon. 600 euro voor 3 nachten is wat mij betreft te veel voor wat we hebben gekregen.

HĂŽtel bien situĂ© dans un quartier calme et vite accessible en transports en communs (5 minutes de la station South Kensington - 10 min de mĂ©tro pour le centre). Chambre propre avec serviettes remplacĂ©es tous les jours. Chambre 4 personnes avec frigo et salle de bain. Lit double dur mais lits simples confortables. Notre chambre Ă©tait en sous-sol dans un espace sĂ©parĂ© des autres (odeur de gaz au sous sol mais pas dans la chambre). Nous avions demandĂ© une chambre Ă  l’étage. Petit dĂ©jeuner standard avec ce qu’il faut mais quelques spĂ©cialitĂ©s auraient Ă©tĂ© sympathiques (petit dĂ©jeuner anglais). Il est spĂ©cifiĂ© dans le descriptif qu’une cuisine partagĂ©e est Ă  disposition mais ce n’est pas le cas. Nous avons quand mĂȘme pu utiliser le micro-ondes. Bonne adresse Ă  conserver.
