    rooftop bar
    loud air conditioning

    The hotel's unique rooftop bar offers stunning panoramic views of London, making it the perfect spot to unwind after a busy day.

    Unfortunately, the air conditioning unit in my room was quite loud, which disrupted my sleep quality during the night.

    clean room
    pleasant staff

    easily explore parks and iconic landmarks from this hotel

    my stay was enhanced by the clean, compact room, and the hotel's proximity to Kensington Palace, which is just a pleasant 20-minute walk away. It's only a short stroll to charming streets filled with delightful restaurants and shops that made my evenings enjoyable.

    rooftop bar
    heating issues
    poor staff response

    Unique rooftop bar with stunning views of London.

    During my stay, I faced significant issues with the heating system. The room remained uncomfortably cold despite notifying the staff multiple times. Unfortunately, no timely resolution was provided, which hindered my ability to sleep well.

    A lovely London escape 🇬🇧🌟

    The staff were super friendly, and I felt right at home! The brekkie was lekker, especially the scrambled eggs—couldn't get enough! Plus, the location is spot on for exploring!

    Just thought the bathroom was a bit small, but it didn’t ruin the fun.

    noisy aircon

    I stayed in a Double Room for 3 nights, and the bed was seriously comfy! The pillows and duvet felt like a cloud—best sleep ever. The room was clean, not too big, but it had a cozy vibe. Oh, and the location was spot on, close to the metro but super quiet. Staff were friendly too, making check-in a breeze!

    good experience but room felt cramped

    The location is excellent, just a short walk to the metro. The breakfast choices were varied, and I particularly enjoyed the self-serve setup. Watching the sunrise from my garden view room added a lovely touch to my mornings.

    The room was a bit small for two people.

    rooftop vibe
    wellness center
    cozy lounge
    limited breakfast options

    I really enjoyed my recent stay, especially the chill rooftop vibe and the cozy lounge area where I could unwind. They have a nice wellness center for some relaxation time after a busy day. The only thing that could be better was the breakfast selection, as it felt a bit limited for a fancy place. 😊
