This was my second time at the Hilton London Kensington, and it was another fantastic stay. The front desk personal were extremely friendly, and fast . I was able to check in early with no complaints or hesitation from the front desk. Last time I visited this hotel, they were in the middle of the renovation, so it was noisy... more

My friend and I recently stayed at the hotel for 4 nights. We had a twin room which was very clean and had all the necessary facilities, TV, safe, tea and coffee, etc. (with a kettle you could actually get more than 1 cup of tea from which was nice). We didn't use any of the hotel amenities, choosing to... more

Hilton Kensington is in a great location, close to two tube stations and bus route just out the front. The Restaurant Staff were very courteous and the food was great. The Reception Staff were at times difficult to get assistance from and the rooms are VERY small and in need of a refurbishment. They were clean and the housekeeping team... more

Dear Reviewer, Thank you for posting a review. We are pleased that you enjoyed our service during your stay. Unfortunately we do not know which room you stayed in. The majority of our rooms have been through very recent refurbishment and only a couple are left to 'spruce up' at the end of the year. All rooms should be in...

The usual standard Hilton, not central location but near the tube, room was ok, could hear next door TV and talking, so sound proofing is not adequate. Breakfast very slow, fine for 1 night stay. more

If you experience a problem like this again feel free to contact the Duty Manager and we can see if we can change your room/ask for the TV to be turned down. We hope the rest of...

On arrival allocated room 2095, a shoe box size room with no bath. No way would I stay in a room of this size for 3 nights. So small you have to walk round the bed to get into the room and the TV is wall mounted due to lack of space. Are Hilton proud of the manner in which... more

There is a little gelato place on the same street towards the underground that is absoultely fabulous! I would stay here again in a heart beat! The only thing I... more

Great location , excellent for transport to other places. My second time at this hotel, last was as a single person. Twin room can be claustrophobic for 2 people. I am a smoker and my companoin was a non smoker, she was o.k. with this but I wish there was an area outside the hotel to sit in comfort and... more

Just returned from 5 night stay at the end of our trip and very much enjoyed the neighborhood and the hotel. Although we were not one of the lucky ones to have our room upgraded we made do with the space in a standard room and managed quite well. It was kept spotless and tea/coffee cookies were replenished each day.... more
