I had a lovely time staying at this hotel. I arrived at 8am after a red eye flight, and to my luck my room was ready. I stayed in the room with the twin bed. It was small, but perfect for my solo trip. I had a great view of the Kensington Gardens. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Fantastic location too, a short walk from Notting Hill and Hyde Park. When I return to London, I will definitely stay here.

A perfect location in the city in a wonderful neighborhood. Affordable in comparison to other locations in the city, and perfect for a solo traveler. Lots of options for food nearby, however may be a bit warmer in non-colder weather. I had a great stay, and would stay here again if I could!
