It was a small but clean room, and there was a full bathtub. (a rare thing in London.) One thing people should know is if they put you on the side of the hotel away from the street that there is construction going on and you will be awakened early to the noise.
Otherwise pretty comfortable though I did find the pillows kind of hard but hey some people like hard pillows.
Good food and coffee options near by and I like that it is near two tube stops.

Great location close to Bayswater and Queensway Tubes. Many great restaurants around. Excellent breakfast with smoked salmon, great toast and cheese, OK coffee. Iam a 3 time return guest to this location due to breakfast and various offerings for breakfast. My friend enjoyed fruit but I loved Salmon, English Cheddar, and mushrooms. Really great toast and Marmalade too! Perfect English Vibe. Many thanks. Pam Thompson/Whistler Canada

In the bedroom neither of the anglepoise lights over the bed worked, there were leaks in the bathroom behind the sink taps and the shower screen was not big enough so the shower drowned the floor. We asked for softer pillows but they brought the same kind not feather (as stated the guide) . Breakfast was good but they ran out of large and smaller plates, butter and glasses, we had to queue to get in the restaurant at 9.00 . The hot food was good. Check in was very slow.

The staff were very helpful, the room however was soon cold. The electric heater we had was not working, the staff however supplied another heater that worked. We also requested an extra blanket because the room was so cold.
For a hotel of 4 stars in this location I would have expected the heating to have been working.
The lobby and front desk looks amazing, however the room we was in, looked like it needed a little tlc.
We paid for breakfast in the morning, this had loads of options, from cooked food to cereal, fruit and pastries, we went for breakfast early and it was a good job too. Around 9-10:30am the area for breakfast was so packed the line to go in, crowded the hallway where people's room are and where staff enter and exit taking coffee orders. Also where the lift is making this section really packed to get passed.
I stayed for one night with my partner, it was nice but there is room for improvement. Rooms could do with things being fixed, and we had a room at the back with large glass windows where draft came in. The heating for each room needs looking at also, we was not the only people who had this issue. Overall staff were polite and attended to our needs when we asked.

Beautiful building and decor room was tiny and strange in design as you had to walk up stairs directly from the door to the bedroom could be dangerous in the dark. Bath tap and shower controls needed replacing constant dripping no shower screen so floor got soaked when showering. Went for a drink in the bar no lemonade so had to go to the shop and get a can for a mixer then charged £8.00 for a gin with no mixer.
Bar also didn’t have ice not good enough for anywhere let alone a supposed 4 star hotel.
Breakfast was ok but no Cappuccino or latte etc just black coffee you can get a cappuccino in a travelodge so again not good enough all a shame really as the hotel could be a real gem

Lovely public spaces. Great staff. Very good breakfast. Prime location but the rooms were not as advertised. Very small (it looked palatial on the photos), and the décor was a bit tired. No dressing gowns or soft drinks as outlined in the info either. We enjoyed the stay but this is not a four star hotel.

The room was very small. When opening the curtains we could clearly see it was covered in bird droppings, which was unpleasant. There was also a draft coming through the windows, making the room uncomfortable.

On our last day we were sick and asked for a late check-out. The staff initially refused and only later allowed a few extra hours, which felt lacking in understanding.

The room was very inconvenient for someone with limited mobility, like myself. The bathroom was located five steps below the main level of the room. The door to the room could not be opened if the bathroom door was already open, and vice versa. I did not purchase the breakfast, so can't comment on that. seating at the desk was far from adequate. On the plus side, the staff were very pleasant and accomodating, and the hotel' s location is very convenient to transport and restaurants.

Travel sites say 24 hour hotel service to the airport, at check-in they scheduled us a cab for €80. The elevator to the 6th floor wasn’t working, luckily we didn’t get trapped. The showers have no curtains, which cause the bathroom to get soaked. I would have stayed elsewhere if I had known.

This hotel is extremely well located just one or two minutes away from the beautiful Hyde Park in Kensington, also 2 train stations at 5 min walk distance: Queensway and Bayswater. Note that the hotel it’s in an old building from the Regency era very well preserved however, the rooms are clean and comfortable. They are also weren’t out and need some refurbishment especially the bathroom the breakfast is included in some cases and is what is very complete. The best part is the staff from the breakfast and the housekeeping staff some of these stuff are the receptions are not nice or kind some others are. I have stayed three times in this hotel and will continue to recommend it because of its location.

The first room we were assigned smelled very strongly of mold. The front desk was kind and assigned us to another room which was a bit better but still felt old and stuffy with no operable windows. The standard suite has an extremely small bed, much smaller than a queen size. It was uncomfortable for two adults to share. We requested an early check-in weeks in advance which they were not able to accommodate. They were able to leave our bags at the front desk until check-in, but when we returned after check-in time we were told we could go get the bags in the baggage room or we could wait 20 mins for them to be delivered. When we went to retrieve our bags we saw several bags were being stored on the floor of a bathroom with an open toilet. For over $300 a night on a weekday, the overall conditions were just well below expectations.

I was facing the street in the basement but it was nicely quiet. Could have benefitted from a USB point to charge my phone, but reception happily charged it whilst I had breakfast. Took me a while to find the towels in the bathroom - they were on a high shelf. Luckily I’m 5’7” so could reach but I know several friends that wouldn’t have been able to.
