The hotel is pretty good for the money. Staff not all that friendly. Location, good, easy to get to and from from the center. In nice neighbourhood. Free breakfast is reeeeealy not good, nothing fresh about it, canned fruit, dry bread, ect. But hey, its free. We had a basment room, and it was sooo damp and mouldy, my astma... more

We chose this hotel becuase it was the cheapest place in the area we wanted to stay in. The rooms were tiny, but they did have air condition.The staff was friendly, and they provided luggage check prior to checkoput. My only complaint was that we had a basement room with no view and an awkward step down that made lugging... more

She gives us direction to the room and forgotten to gives breakfast times ,,, good it was written in the room key card holder. When we got to the room (139) lights were... more

I got into an argument, I demanded my money back after I saw my room,the manager on duty refused to reimburse me,only when I threatened... more

There was mildew smell in the room. My sister's allergy got triggered. The sink and the bath tub were clogged. The shower was covered with rust. The personnel at the reception was unfriendly and uncooperative. The carpet in the reception area was filthy. more

This hotel is in Earl's Court - not Kensington as name suggests. However the location is pretty good - very short walk to Earl's Court tube (3 lines) and lots of amenities in the area (including internet). Hotel claims to be 3 star but is more like a 2 star with a few extras thrown in (eg tea/coffee facility in... more

I switched to this hotel after a rough experience elsewhere and was very pleased. The hotel is extremely close to earl's court tube station, and thus also close to many services and places to eat. The room was a good size complete with a comfortable bed, a painting on the wall, a tv showing 5 channels, a safe, and a... more

Adequate.

I booked this hotel on hotels.ca for two nights. We paid $320 CDN for two nights. London is very expensive, but I'm glad we didn't pay more. The hotel is very basic. Our bathroom fixtures were quite old and worn, but clean, as was the rest of the room. The room was very small but that is to be expected... more

The room was very, very small, even by London standards. Ran the risk of burning myself against the heater when moving around the room and even had to sit sideways on the toilet. Not a variety of TV channels. Breakfast average. Hotel well situated, close to subway, supermarket, all amenities and a great Indian cuisine restaurant closeby. Will stay again,... more

You definitely get what you pay for in London, so at 48 euros a night, i didn't have very high expectations! the hotel is not really in kensington but in earl court, south of kensington, pretty far southwest of the city but easily accessible by train and just a 5-10 minute walk from kensington (shopping, gardens, palace, etc). The single... more
