Recently I spent a couple of days at the Base2Stay Kensington hotel while on a business trip to London. The lobby and room have a modern and "chick" look and give the impression as if the hotel has been refurbished not too long ago. The staff is young, energetic and very eager to address any concern or request promptly. As a business traveller the free WiFi was most useful. Although my double room (G6) was somewhat small, it served my purposes perfectly so I had no complaints whatsoever.

I've never stayed at a base2stay before, but will be on the lookout for now on. What a great place! This was in a perfect location in Kensington, just a short walk from the Earls Court tube station, making it a great 'base to stay' in London. They provide lots of helpful--truly helpful--information (which includes discounts at local restaurants) and are mindful of the environment (recycling bins in your room. The room appears small at first glance, particularly to this claustrophobic individual, but it was brilliantly designed & made great use of its small space (the window helped). Hidden behind one set of doors at the foot of the bed is a small kitchenette--sink, dishes, cutlery, microwave, fridge. Hidden behind another set of doors down by the bathroom is a closet, with room for your suitcase, drawers, and hangers. The bathroom has a heated towel rack, which not only heats your towels but the room itself (perfect in snowy London). The shower was hot & plentiful. The bed was comfortable--not just the bed, but the pillow, too. And the sheets are cotton. Free wifi, television (mounted on the wall at the foot of the bed), tea--couldn't be better. A vending machine could be found on the landing. I'll definitely recommend this particular place as well as the chain itself.

This is a perfect place for a few days in London. After a long haul flight it was easy to find and the staff were friendly and very professional. It's on a quieter street but so close to the underground at Earls Court restaurants etc . Thanks Base 2 Stay.
