Beautiful hotel in a great location. My room was a comfortable size and very clean. Would definitely stay again and will recommend to friends in the future.
The hotel is very cozy and we enjoyed having the kitchen amenities! The location is terrific, plenty of shopping, dining, gardens and museums near by, although Cromwell St is very busy street. The staff is fabulous- friendly and eager to make your stay a pleasant one
Excellent breakfast, restaurant and overall hotel vibe is exquisite. The toilet is a bit off but very spacious the little partition thing doesn't really blocking water splash out from the shower the floor will be pretty wet but do dry very quickly.

Friendly staff, great location for access to museums and lovely vibe
This is a lovely hotel, very convenient for West London. The decor is colourful and unconventional, and the rooms are spacious and clean. The staff are very friendly and helpful. It has the bonus of a small restaurant, garden and a bar. I would definitely stay here again (and have).
What a find! Perfect for our travel plans. First time staying Kensington and it didn’t disappoint. From check in to leaving the staff were awesome
Thank you so much
