Very good hotel, breakfast was very good and for a London hotel it was not too expensive . The hotel is not to far from the tube station and once you are on it you can get to any part of London The bathroom is a bit small but we had a good size bed. I would stay here again... More

Great hotel, excellent location ja very very helpful staff (thank you for helping me to print my ryanair boarding pass.) Clean and large room, very comfortable bed. And good water pressure in shower. I truly recommend this hotel!

This Hotel could not have a better location esp. for a single traveler! Hyde Pk is directly accross the street and it's ideal for walking, jogging or sitting a reading a book! The Hotel does have a gas station/mini market just outside the door....the homemade sandwiches are wonderful and cheap! Bottle water was less than $1.00! The Hotel is quiet,... More

The location of this hotel was fantastic! The underground stops were very close and we were able to get... More

I stayed here in January when away for work. I booked a double room which was small but had everything I needed, such as Iron/Ironing board, hot drink facilities, TV etc. As I have seen mentioned before, I was on the top floor, and the water pressure wasn't great for the shower. There is parking on site, although it costs... More

This place represents excellent value when you can get the room rates right. Excellent location, 2 minutes from Queensway, with a lot of rooms overlooking Kensington Gardens. The hotel is furnished to a very high standard, without being over the top. However, first impressions can be worrying when approaching the hotel, as it is built above a petrol station and... More

Two things....the breakfast food was cold and the bed linen sheet did not reach the bottom of the bed which was very odd.

We stayed at the Thistle Kensington Gardens on our honeymoon April 2012. For first time travellers to London - with no experience travelling whatsover - the thistle is a great starting point. The hotel is in the best location - not only did the hop on hop off bus stop out the front of the hotel - we could walk... More
