Top Kensington Hotel Reviews

Garden View Hotel

8/10 Good

"It was a lovely enough little hotel. Close to the transport links and restaurants. I had a tiny room but was perfect for just a nights rest after an event and an early departure next day. I was on the 3rd floor, and the lift was not working, but they were working on it so sure it will be fixed soon. The staff were friendly and helpful. I had nothing to moan about really. I would stay again :D"

Royal Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was a very busy hotel, but what it may have lacked in intimacy was more than exceeded in the quality and comfort of our garden view room, the great location near the tube, Whole Foods, restaurants, and parks. The staff was helpful but also very busy attending to numerous visitors and groups. The restaurants, by the way, were excellent."

The Bailey's Hotel London Kensington

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was lovely as were the staff. We arrived before check in time but were able to store our luggage there while we set out exploring the neighbourhood. The Kensington area is great with cafès and pubs close by. Check in at the hotel was easy and our luggage was taken to our room. We were in a deluxe double room which was very spacious. The bathroom was spacious as well. Overall very pleased with the room size. The bed was comfortable but the pillows were not great. The room on the fifth floor was very quiet. The bar is lovely and was a nice place to unwind at the end of a busy day sightseeing. Getting around London was easy as the underground station is right across the street. The tube to Piccadilly took us right to the airport. Upon checking out I requested my receipt be emailed to me but never got it so if that’s important to you make sure to get one printed before your departure. I highly recommend the Baileys hotel and would love to return someday."

Radisson Blu Hotel, London South Kensington

8/10 Good

"Great location a minute away from Gloucester Road tube station, good location for the museums and Albert Hall within walking distance. Our room was very clean. Breakfast was a bit disappointing but staff were really pleasant. The lady greeting us for breakfast was lovely think her name was Cecilia and thank you to Lilita on Reception who sorted out issues with breakfast. Would recommend overall."
