Great area to stay in. The hotel was really cute and I like the little patio areas outside the rooms. The only complaint is the room is very dark so bring a vanity mirror or something for makeup.

8/10 Very good

Lovely bank holiday stay, family of 5.

Wonderful stay for a family of 5. Lovely sized clean room. We stayed in one of the basement rooms and were worried it would feel dark but it didn’t. The hotel was an excellent location for us to visit the museums, many cafes and restaurants and Kensington palace and gardens without having to use any public transport. Used the pool during the time children are allowed. It was nice but very busy and too many older children jumping in for our 2 year old. I think it would benefit from more than one time a day during holidays and weekends where kids can use the pool or a special under 5s time.
Thomas, 1-night trip
