Lovely hotel in a perfect location!

This was a lovely hotel with friendly and helpful staff. The location was perfect, right across the street from South Kensington station - easy to get around with connections to several underground lines and bus routes. Did not realize I needed heated bathroom floors in my life until my stay here. Would definitely stay here again next time I’m in London!

Lovely and luxurious boutique hotel. Staff very attentive and welcoming. We loved the art & decorations. One gripe: couldn't get any of the room gadgets working properly. Even the iron & coffee machine eluded me.

I night stay after a show

We were only here for 1 night but had a lovely stay and would highly recommend the hotel and would return if in the area again. It was close to the station and bus routes,shops restaurants etc. From the warm welcome from the gentleman at the door and efficient and personable reception staff,we found check in was quick and easy . The rooms were clean and well thought out,the towels fluffy and soft and the bed comfortable.
