I picked this hotel because I could walk to the train and Royal Albert Hall and I’m happy I did. It was in the perfect location to walk everywhere. My room was very clean and comfortable (I got a double bed) with a nice big window. The bathroom was nice and the shower was excellent. I would definitely stay here again

A very pleasant stay in an ideal location in the Kensington area (perfect for the museums and V&A hall etc). The room is small! However it was very clean, the check in and check out was very efficient, and it all worked perfectly for the purpose of our stay. Would come again!

My wife, our daughter, and I stayed at the Gem Strathmore Hotel in London in April and really enjoyed it. The room was small but spotless and comfortable, and breakfast each morning was efficient and pleasant. The hotel is in South Kensington, a beautiful area, and the location was ideal—just a short walk to Gloucester Road Tube and convenient for the Natural History Museum and Harrods. We stayed five nights total (split by a Scotland excursion) and everything was smooth both times; we’d happily return. Spotless, comfortable room (compact, as expected in London) Breakfast was smooth and well run South Kensington location: minutes to Gloucester Road Tube; easy for the Natural History Museum and Harrods Recommended—comfortable, convenient, and easy to book as a split stay.
