not great food. great rooms. nice staff. overall is: * * * * rating.

We stayed at Number 16 the first weekend in April 2012 and had a great time. The staff are truly professional and welcoming. Room quite small but very well appointed and comfortable. Bathroom with double basin good size. Afternoon tea is great in the courtyard garden, breakfast buffet also top notch. The drawing rooms are wackily decorated but have a... More

The rooms are small but extremely stylish and pretty. The building is lovely. The service is very good. The garden is worth a look. The hotel is very convenient as it is a 5 minute walk from the South Kensington Tube Station (and less than 10 minutes to the V&A). However, the pound being so much stronger than the US$... More

Great location, comfortable (though small) and quiet room in London. My mom and I stayed here for her 60th birthday and had a fantastic long weekend exploring the city. There are some lovely restaurants near the hotel and the staff was very helpful providing recommendations each night. Everyone was cheery, the hotel was clean, and breakfast was tasty. They have...

I have stayed at some lovely and charming hotels over the years, but Number Sixteen, a boutique hotel in South Kensington, is the perfect combination of beauty, customer service, and location! Our room was stunning with a wonderful view of the garden, the staff was superb -- cheerful, incredibly helpful and very accommodating, and the location was wonderful, right around... More

When you enter the immediate feel is small and exclusive, quiet, comfortable, and beautiful. The staff is friendly, the sitting areas plush and inviting, and the rooms are large and well designed. The lower levels find... More

We stayed for 2 nights for my boyfriends 40th birthday, from the minute I booked over the phone the customer service was personnel, professional and friendly. We were upgraded on arrival and offered some complimentary champagne for our celebration. Nothing was too much trouble, the location is quiet and off the beaten track and the price is not crazy. We... More

I stayed in late March and was very pleased. The hotel itself is located on a lovely street with period architecture just a two minute walk from South Kensington tube station, with lots of lovely cafes and shops nearby. The interior of the hotel is tastefully decorated with some really beautiful rooms open to guests such as the library, conservatory... More

This place is located in a hot area for design shopping and brunch places, and only a few steps from South Kensington tube station (3 major lines across London) The venue is composed of a few british style homes linked together which keeps the area look like a residential street rather than a hotel. Rooms have been decorated in a... More
