    Small boutique hotel in excellent location. Near museums and shopping.

    • Deluxe Double Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    I stayed here when I arrived then left my luggage to go to the country and upon my return I was upgraded to a bigger room with wooden floors. I was very happy with this room. The staff were wonderful and helpful with directions and recommendations of trains and places to visit.

    Good boutique hotel, excellent location in Central London.
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Deluxe Double Room
    • Stayed 3 nights

    At first I got a ghastly room but I complained and the manager was most accommodating. I stayed here many times before and forgot to request room with wooden floor so it was my fault. However, I think some rooms should be retired and refurbished as they are looking tired not worthy of the Andrew Brownsword brand of hotels.

    I asked for a room with wooden floor and the manager Mr. Ryda Zarhouni kildly moved me to such a room. I like the location as it's near South Kensington and not far from King's Road if you like walking. The street is not busy and quite residential so easy for taxis to park outside the door and load your luggage.

    Staff on front desk could have smiled, it all appeared a bit unfriendly from check in to check out. The room was very small & shower curtain far too short to cover the bath resulting in a wet & very slippery floor.

    Location & very comfy bed.

    A full shopping bag was taken from my room, most likely because the cleaning staff threw it away. Hotel management did not follow up despite claiming they would. The breakfast would sometimes have missing items, due to understocking or carelessness. The walls between rooms do not block sound, so you can often hear muffled conversations of other guests, or worse, their alarm clock.

    I have stayed at this hotel many times. The hotel is in a great location, the rooms are comfortable, and the breakfast dishes are good.

    The rooms are tiny. The lift is tiny. The bathrooms are tiny. I recognize that this is London, but still. Everything is doll-like.

    The communal areas are a little tight but that's to be expected in an old building

    We had special requirements for our elderly parents who were due to go to an appointment at the Royal Marsden. The receptionist took everything on board & had booked us the best possible rooms for our requirements. Excellent service

    V small lift. Would not fit two people or much luggage! Breakfast very good but a bit expensive. Toilet in en suite very low to ground....would be difficult for elderly or disabled people. Needs support rail at least. TV a bit difficult to control. Had to ask for help which came readily but also found it tricky!

    Welcoming staff on duty 24 hours Clean and modern refurbishment. Engineered wood floors (no smelly carpets!) Good facilities Small but modern, clean ensuite Good double glazing for sound proofing and blinds for window privacy from the street

    The shower would benefit from having a holder on the wall. It was awkward having to hold the shower head. Essentially, it was a bath with a shower head.

    Location is excellent and great value. The room whilst small was comfortable and perfectly adequate for the purpose we had. Staff were fantastic.
