The hotel is in a fantastic location, extremely close to Kensington High Street and the tube station, making it convenient for exploring attractions like Kensington Gardens and the Royal Albert Hall. The staff are friendly and efficient, offering a cocktail voucher and late check out during unexpected events. While the bar drinks upfront can be loud, the shabby furniture in places and small room size may not appeal to everyone.

The hotel is centrally located near Hyde Park, shops, and metro station, making it ideal for exploring the city. The rooms are cozy but a bit cramped for two people. The service was welcoming and helpful, though a momentary inconvenience occurred with room access. The dining options, while basic, offered a simple morning selection. The convenient location near Royal Albert Hall is a plus, with easy access to the park for leisurely strolls.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although beautifully furnished with two bedrooms, were a bit noisy as they are located in the roof of the building, and accessing them required navigating another flight of stairs. The price at around £70 a day seemed reasonable beforehand.

The hotel's location is amazing, just opposite Kensington Gardens and Kensington Palace, making it perfect for exploring Hyde Park, Royal Albert Hall, and other nearby attractions. The rooms, although well-furnished, are on the smaller side with limited lighting for grooming. The service went above and beyond, with thoughtful room decorations and friendly support. The dining experience was basic but convenient, with some disappointments in the quality of breakfast offerings. Overall, a great choice for a central London stay, especially for Royal Albert Hall visitors.
