The heating didn’t work correctly on a freezing night even after the engineer turned up to repair resulting in a cold evening in bed. The bed and pillow were uncomfortable and to top it all the breakfast selection for full English was poor. The friend eggs were as hard as frisbees and cold. The free cake and afternoon tea were nice though. Definitely wouldn’t stay here again.

The room wasn’t ready at 3 pm check in I upgraded for views across Kensington and got a brick wall Our room when we got it eventually had a put you up bed in and was very cramped The heating was rediculous either that hot we were sweaty of cold air. I paid my bill on Friday then got a letter put under my door asking for more . Sorry but you need to get it right 1 st time and I refused to pay extra as we didn’t incur any extras we were out most of the time !! Very disappointed in the reception staff tbh

From the day we arrived to when we left we'd had the most wonderful stay at The Copthorne Tara Hotel, at the guest relations desk a lovely lady called Jamila took care of our check in and questions , i wear a lanyard showing that i have disabilities and Jamila was so kind , helpful and friendly on more than one occasion , she is really a credit to the hotel. The room was very nice comfy and clean. We had breakfast for 3 mornings which was very good and catered for everyone . " ALL " of the hotel staff were amazing and so helpful and friendly and the added bonus was the hotel was only just over a 20 min walk to The Royal Albert Hall. We also ate in the Bugis Kitchen the food was excellent , plentyful and a good price. I would highly recommend this hotel and can't wait to stay again.
