Staff really good, decent location and plenty of food options. That’s good as it gets sadly.

Apartment poor, nothing like the pictures. Laminate floor not properly laid meant I cut my foot. All units in poor condition with laminate peeling off. Shower dirty, fan falling apart….

Not good value, barely adequate for one night. Will not return.

Room was in basement. Was constantly hot (hotter than outside temp). Air conditioner was inadequate and would switch off after 30 minutes so the room could never cool down.
Bed was uneven.
No shampoo/shower gel provided.

After reading some negative reviews I was a bit apprehensive, but much to my relief it turned to be much better than expected. I was staying for a business trip and it had everything I required. The location was really convenient with multiple tube and bus options nearby. There was lots going on locally with cafes, bars, shops etc yet the street itself was very quiet.

If I was being picky I could say the bed was a bit soft (but once in the bed felt fine) and the absence of a bedside lamp or light switch was a bit inconvenient. These are only fairly minor points though.

The room was not immaculately clean, but more than adequate.

Staff were friendly and polite, area was great. Unfortunately the property was not clean eg
*net curtains had large ? Blood stain
*bathroom mirror smudged
*outside of kitchen cupboards covered in greasy handmarks
*sofabed dusty, grubby and had ? Cigarette burn
Damage eg shower tap had concealed jagged edges, holes in bottom of bathroom door
Generally the apartment could do with a lick of paint and some tlc
I hate to leave negative feedback but i think if it had just been in need of decorating i wouldnt have minded so much, the fact that it hadnt been thoroughly cleaned was my prompt to leave this feedback to hopefully help the next person paying for this room.

After a long day travelling to London and an amazing night at a show we arrived at the hotel to pick up keys where the gentleman at the desk was very friendly but flustered as he tried photocopying my driving licence take deposits and verifying transactions all of which seemed a bit much for a one night stay! On finishing these checks he was very happy to tell us he had upgraded us into a better apartment which was lovely as we were away for my birthday. Getting over to the apartments was easy and after climbing the stairs to room 13 my husband passed me the bad whilst he unlocked the door and turned on the light to our horror the door opened straight onto the bed where 2 people were obviously not expecting visitors!! We then continued back over to the hotel in the pouring rain to sort the issue of which was sorted but not a great start to the booking!

Cheap experience

Location was great. Loved all the resturants and stores nearby. I liked the 24hr front desk.
The room was tiny and supplied with the most basic of amenities. The bed was tiny and creaky. The bathroom was the smallest one I've been in outside of an airplane. 2 towels and a bathmat. The bathroom smelled like an open drain. No handtowel or kitchen towel for the dishes. We were stuck with the 5th floor no elevator. My husband said its 58 stairs.
Thanks for the wobbly fan and the open window.
The overwelmingly perfumed smell in the hallways and the lobby was awful. Give it up. It stinks.
We happily left a night early.

Not really that pleasant an environment to rest in with renovations and angle grinders happening all day and tonnes of workers using the narrow hallway for large objects.

The shower was so cramped and the overall use of space needs a rethink.

The balcony was a lovely charm and proximity and overall service was the big win here

The location of the apartment was great. Very walkable and close to the tube, grocery stores, restaurants and park. The room itself was very much average. No air conditioning and the room gets quite stuffy, broken bathroom tiles and the floor felt gritty. It was adequate but certainly nothing above average, if not a bit below. Best thing about it was the location.

not worth the money !! Stay away !!

I had booked this hotel as I was in London for work, I started work at 7am in the morning and had booked 2 night’s with this hotel, unfortunately I couldn’t even sleep as the walls are far too thin and I can hear the neighbour screaming and shouting, I had complained but there was no action, wouldn’t waste my time here again.

Reception area was dirty and had stains on the walls behind the desk. The room was not one that was in any of the pictures, and was not matching in cleanliness or order. The bed was not comfortable and there were stains on the ceiling. My wife went to use the restroom only to find out the toilet seat was not attached, and it came off. The bathroom did not have soap.

We notified the front desk and asked for our money back, as we were not going to stay there after that. We were initially offered a different room, but we were past that point. I was given this email address to inquire about a refund([email protected]), but after two emails since December 30, I’ve heard absolutely nothing from them.

I would suggest not staying at this hotel.

Disappointing so will not be returning

Positive - Maintenance and the cleaner were friendly.
Negatives - Website did not mention anything about deposit
When checking in, I was asked for my Passport and Credit card. I noticed the guy at Reception typing in the information contained on the front and back my card. I queried this and was advised that it was for the damage deposit for the sum of £200. He further explained that it is very rare that they would activate the damage deposit and that he would not be taking a deposit from my card. I advised him of my concerns about him having access to the security code at the back of my card. He advised that the information he took has been encrypted so he no longer has access to it. I remained concerned.
The Kitchen area was very nice and well appointed but the rest of the room was very basic and underwhelming. One of the handles on the window was broken and the sash windows did not remain open unless it was positioned quite high. I then had problems closing the window. The bed was very low, boxed in a wooden frame. There was a piece of wood missing from on of the legs. The bathroom mirror appeared smeared at the edges and there were several long dark hairs on the bed when I removed the pillow. Clean sheets were promptly ordered for my room. When I removed the bed sheets, there was no mattress protector and the mattress had a large stain..
Hotel.com. are currently dealing with my concerns about my credit card details and my rights. They were very supportive.

Ficamos em um quarto no último andar. Eram diversas escadas bem apertadas para subir com malas. No geral, a estadia foi ok, a propriedade é muito bem localizada. Em questão de conforto, deixa um pouco a desejar, banheiro muito pequeno e apertado, móveis bem velhos e bambos. Vale muito pela localização e pelo custo benefício se tratando de Londres.

El alojamiento es tan cual se ve en la imagen, hemos estado en un estudio triple y la experiencia ha sido inmejorable.

La habitación estaba limpia,equipada con lo necesario para pasar unos días y la habitación estaba calentita cosa que se agradecía cuando entrabas del frío de la calle. Además tenía wifi gratuito.

El alojamiento está ubicado en una zona muy buena, con estación de metro y todo tipo de restaurantes, supermercados y tiendas en la calle de atrás. Hay una parada de autobús en frente del alojamiento.La calle del alojamiento es muy tranquila y no hay ruidos por la noche.

El alojamiento no tiene recepción, la recepción está en el hotel que hay enfrente y una vez que te entregan la llave puedes entrar y salir del alojamiento libremente.

Hay posibilidad de dejar el equipaje en una sala de acceso restringido del hotel si llegas antes de la hora de check in o cuando haces el check out y tu vuelo sale tarde y quieres aprovechar en día. Este servicio es totalmente gratuito. Yo lo utilice cuando hice el check out y pude aprovechar el día entero por Londres libre de equipaje hasta la hora de mi vuelo. En el check in no lo usé porque aunque llegue antes de la hora tenían mi habitación lista y pude entrar y dejar mi equipaje directamente (todo un detallazo).

Como resumen puedo decir que mi estancia ha sido de 10, este alojamiento es totalmente recomendable y si vuelvo a Londres sin duda que repetiré,

Wir hatten zuerst ein Zimmer im Keller mit Blick auf eine sehr verschmutzte Wand. Das Zimmer war angeblich fertig, aber es waren Krümmel und Staub auf der Arbeitsfläche und auf den Tischen. Es gab nur zwei Handtücher für zwei Personen, diese wurden in der ganzen Woche auch nur einmal auf Nachfrage gewechselt. Die Reinigung findet angeblich alle 3 Tage statt war aber auch kein einziges Mal in der Zeit wo wir da waren. Einen Save gibt es auf dem Zimmer nicht. Wir durften am zweiten Tag in ein oberes Zimmer umziehen weil die Matratze im Keller Appartement komplett durchgelegen war und man in ein großes Loch in der Mitte gefallen ist wenn man sich umdrehen wollte. Die ganzen Möbel sind schon sehr in die Jahre gekommen und es gibt keine Möglichkeiten ein benutztes Handtuch auch mal zum trocknen aufzuhängen.

Excelente localização

Excelente localização: muito próximo ao Hyde Park e praticamente colado a duas estações do Metrô (Bayswater, da Circle Line/linha amarela e Queensway, da linha vermelha), que dá acesso fácil e tranquilo ao aeroporto Heathrow (LHR).
Ônibus passando na porta (linha 70) e várias outras linhas passando nas ruas adjacentes.

Apartamentos bem pequenos porém, super bem equipados: possui uma pequena cozinha integrada ao quarto, com cooktop, micro-ondas, geladeira, pia e utensilios, o que nos deu bastante comodidade e economia na questão da alimentação.

Os pontos negativos ficaram por conta da cama que era muito baixa e com o colchão levemente retorcido, tbm sentimos falta de ao menos uma mesinha de cabeceira para apoio e de prateleiras no banheiro/box para acomodar os objetos pessoais.

Entretanto, o saldo final foi positivo: tivemos uma ótima estadia.
Certamenteme me hospedaria novamente e recomendo o New Kents Apartments.

Al nostro arrivo vi era una receptionist molto garbata, che parlava anche molto bene in italiano.
La posizione è fantastica a due minuti a piedi sia dalla metro Bayswater che Queensway.
La stanza nel suo insieme piccola, ma sufficiente per sette giorni in 2 solo che le pareti sono davvero molto sottili e nella stanza si sente tutto ciò che avviene fuori. L’armandio non è provvisto di grucce per gli abiti, ne di una staffa per poggiarle, anche per i giubbini che toglievamo una volta rientrati non vi era nessun gancio per poggiarli lì quindi abbiamo dovuto arrangiarci
La pulizia è ok, ma si potrebbe migliorare.
La cucina è fornita di alcune pentole (circa 3) e posate, bicchieri, piatti e tazze in numero di 2.
Ovviamente questo è l’unico equipaggiamento della cucina, il resto non c’è ( un panno per il lavandino, qualcosa per asciugare i piatti, sale, zucchero, olio..)

Oj, oj att sådant boende får finnas på Hotels.com

Låt inte någon betala för detta. Trasiga saker i mängd. Åtgärdas inte trots vänlig förfrågan.
Det är så nära ett råtthål man kan komma och vi har gjort många, många resor över tid. Tag omedelbart bort detta från boendealternativen.
Med vänlig hälsning att vårt boende nu i Paris är utmärkt och det är ändå samma kostnadsnivå.
