It was a perfect hotel and their hospitality was amazing. But there are no slippers in the rooms and the heater does not work properly.

This hotel offers decent value for money with standard amenities and satisfactory breakfast options. However, I was deeply disappointed by their post-check-out protocol regarding forgotten items. During my stay, I left several opened and unopened food items in the room's refrigerator. Unfortunately, the staff disposed of or retained these items without attempting to notify me—a stark contrast to my recent experience at a rural Liverpool hotel, where the front desk promptly informed me about a forgotten perfume. While the financial loss here was minor (around £30), the lack of communication reflects poorly on customer care standards.  For a reputable establishment in London, such oversight is unexpected. I urge management to revise their policies: a simple message to guests about abandoned belongings would greatly improve trust and professionalism.

Good location, very near to High Street Kensington station, may need to consider station with no lift access to street from platform; great that there are varieties of restaurants and shops in High Street; Room facilities are good, except the drainage of bathtub was a little troublesome

Lady Fahzay at reception was so helpful n friendly. Night shift reception is also resourceful. If u wish to leave luggage after checkout it’s £2.50 each piece, that’s unheard of

Booked a Superia twin room which was very adequate. Small fridge, shower over the bath, plenty of storage and places to put suitcases. Room refreshed everyday.

The hotel is ideally located just a 5-minute walk from the underground station. However, I was disappointed to find that luggage storage incurs a fee of £2.5 per item, which was not mentioned when I booked. This lack of transparency affected my decision to stay here. Additionally, the air conditioning vent is blocked by the curtains, making the room warm, and the soundproofing is poor, with disruptive train noise at night. Overall, this experience left me and my friends feeling quite dissatisfied.

The room is spacious and well air-conditioned, though a bit worn, particularly the toilet. However, the service from the front desk is excellent; the staff is very nice and helpful.
