We stayed at The Kensington Hotel for 3 nights recently and were very impressed with it. We arrived before normal check in time and the reception and porter staff could not have been more helpful and accommodating offering us coffee etc while we waited for a room to be ready. There was one particular porter - wish we got his... more

This hotel totally lived up to its reviews. We stayed for four nights and then came back for two more on another leg of our trip.

Having originally booked in to the Sheraton Park Towers at about four times the cost and been utterly disappointed in every regard we decided to jump ship and spend the rest of our stay at Kensington Hotel (a further 5 nights). We were upgraded to a suite - which I would highly recommend as the bathroom was the best I... more

The room + breakfast + £30 to spend at the hotel cost £150 from Travelzoo which was excellent value for two (I was just one though). The food was excellent and the staff friendly. The room was spacious. I would recommend staying here if you can get a good deal. more

I recommend this hotel but they desperately need more staff in the dining room and better training of all staff. In general they need more people and the front of the house staff are aware of this as several staff members asked me to write this review as their central management in UK and Ireland were not giving them enough... more
