What guests think

At The Chelsea Harbour Hotel and Spa, guests often highlight large, suite-style rooms with marina views and a calm atmosphere, but also report dated decor, intermittent maintenance issues, and inconsistent service, including slow check-in, unreturned calls, and billing mistakes.

The location is waterside and quiet with Uber Boat and Overground access, but it isn’t central and nearby dining and shops are limited. Facilities include a pool, spa and gym, though guests mention sauna or steam outages, dated areas, early bar closing, lift glitches and very expensive parking. Breakfast and on-site dining range from very good to limited or overpriced, with periods of slow service or closure. Expect spacious suites and a peaceful base, with variable upkeep and operations.

Shower stopped working three times, hotel is very aged and isn’t but a 2.5-3 star property. Breakfast service is slow. If you want more coffee/tea you often have to proactively find someone. The spa is a joke. The lift is broken getting to it. Now you have to go to another floor in the opposite side of the building, walk all the way back and then down a dark hallway. While we were in the pool they hosted swimming lessons which we thought was strange for a hotel pool. Great quiet location but overall would never stay again.

We loved the hotel but unfortunately my daughter and I became stuck in the spa lift, the doors wouldn't open. My daughter became very distressed and as a result she wouldn't use the lifts again.

Stayed here for work, as I’m a Gold member I did manage to upgrade even without asking they gave me a suite. Unfortunately there was a wedding on and the noise was too loud. Mohit at reception was really nice and gave me another room away from the noise. The room was even bigger, bed was comfortable and had everything I needed. The use of the pool and gym/sauna was good, however the sauna needs a refurb and the steam has been out of order for 5+ months from speaking to members. Overall was good stay

Hotel lovely just not enough time to enjoy all it has to offer. Bar closes early however they do allow you to buy many drinks on last round and remain in the bar area. It’s a very welcoming hotel in a beautiful picturesque area in London away from the hustle and bustle. We’ll recommended rooms are lovely. Good breakfast although the way it’s set out could be better. Overall we will stay here again .

My fourth stay here, it’s a lovely hotel, good service and a wonderful location. The marina balcony rooms are very spacious, 2 toilets and one bathroom is a great bonus and the views are super. Unfortunately the hot water failed on our check out day throughout the hotel so we got ready with good water which was a real shame. To be very fair we were offered use of the spa to shower but it was easier just to depart. On departure we were given (without asking) an apology for the water situation. It is what it is and nobody’s fault. Finally I asked for a print out of our bill and was offered it by email if I preferred. It was to arrive within two minutes so we left. 5 1/2 hours later and it’s still not arrived. This is a good hotel, I will go back as it’s in a lovely location and generally it is very good but this stay was not quite as good as usual.

I was here 8 years ago and nothing has been updated at all. The rooms and furnishings have become "tired" and a bit worn. Things are beginning to break down. We had no water one morning and one of the elevators was out of order for a few of the 8 days we were there. The restaurants were good and the food was excellent. Even though we were on a no-smoking floor the hallway stunk of cigarette smoke causing a middle of the night fire alarm and our evacuation of the hotel at 2 a.m. This was the third time we have stayed here and I am certain we can find something better next time.

Room was nice enough but a little tatty in places and the decor a little tired. None of the fittings you would expect in a hotel of this class such as usb points etc. Windows looked like they hadn’t been cleaned in years. Messages from the hotel clearly stated 12 check out only to be woken at 11 by housekeeping at 11 and then slightly rudely by reception saying we were late checking out. Bill was also wrong at the end of the stay. Overall a little disappointing

The worst experience from - [ ] Start to finish . I had pre-check in so I would go through a smooth process of just having collect rooms keys and going to our rooms . However this was not the case so we had to check in again . Which took more than hour as the front desk staff had no clue as to what they were doing. At this point I was suffering a lot of pain . I have fibromyalgia . Symptoms including widespread pain. Ibs and chronic fatigue which is managed by medication. That’s why I had pre- check in . We had booked three rooms as we were going to see the gypsy kings that evening . A Mother’s Day gift from my two children . Our luggage was left in the lobby with my meds in it . We were informed that our luggage would be sent to our rooms straight away . As we proceeded to our room . My room was freezing cold and very stinky . It made me gag . I called reception to have room changed and asked for an ice bucket, as I need to warm the bottled water to take my meds . I also asked where my luggage was as my meds were in luggage . I was rudely spoken to by several staff by the names of Bianca, Asia . Bianca actually told me on the phone I need to respect them . I was shocked by the way she spoke to me. when all I asked for some consideration of my disability. I pleaded with them to bring my suitcase upstairs with my medication in it to my room as I was in severe pain and I needed to take it with warm water . I explained this to both staff members Bianca and Asia which they tota

We had to do a last-minute change to this hotel and we couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. From the moment we checked in until we left everything was excellent. Especially memorable was the staff. Wonderful wonderful people who made you feel like they really cared and wanted to make your stay the best possible. Excellent location as well! Loved everything about it.

Arrival check-in was okay. Although, the staffs at the reception were all over the place. There were a lot of upset customers when I was trying to get the second room. I found a lot of hairs in our toilet. They had to clean the entire toilet again for me. The check out was unpleasant. We were being billed again for a room service breakfast that were already paid at the time of order. We had to wait another 10-15 mins for them to sort out and understand what was happening. After waiting, they reassured me that there will be no charge (I did not sign the form confirming the charge) and that I will get the full deposit… I did not get my full deposit! It was not a nice experience from a supposedly 5 star hotel.

The hotel itself is lovely, but the customer service — particularly front of house and management — desperately needs improvement. They seem more interested in arguing and proving you wrong than resolving issues. On two separate occasions, despite paying for a River King View, they attempted to downgrade us and told it was the same standard of room, which it clearly wasn’t. Training in professionalism and guest care is urgently needed.

I love the quiet location of this hotel. Not quite in central London but just close enough to be convenient. The hotel has lots of space, both in common areas and in particular, the rooms. They are quite spacious and comfortable. Elevators quick and fast. Staff was great. Our reception, Shokh, was particularly kind, efficient and helpful to both myself and family. He went out of his way to assist in all demands. Would definitely stay there again. I think that it is good value for money.

Hotel staff was nice . Property is a little off to the side away from the main attractions and airport. Other than that the staff was very nice and accommodating .Close to river where you can walk. Nice view from hotel room. Room did smell like smoke upon entering and throughout our stay even though the property is supposed to be a non smoking property and found cigarettes on the balcony. Overall a decent stay in decent area just those 3 negatives with the cigarettes and distance from attractions because of the traffic. They offer to call you taxis and Ubers can take a while to connect and pick you up from there.

Myself and my husband spent 2 nights in a river view suite. Check in was easy, the suite was immaculate with stunning views over the harbour and river. We had a beautiful meal in the riverside restaurant . The ambience was great as there was a live jazz trio playing in the restaurant. The food and beverage manager Mr Zamfirescu was very attentive and pleasant to chat with as was our waiter for the evening. The breakfast buffet was very nice and the staff were pleasant and friendly. Mohit on the reception desk was very welcoming and showed us what a 5 star welcome should be. My only criticism was that some of the reception team were quite sullen and appeared to be quite unfriendly, no smiles or small talk just very serious. Overall we had a lovely break to celebrate our Anniversary!

This is a 4 star hotel as is in the current condition not 5 star. It's dated and needs remodeling. The location is beautiful. I had a one bedroom suite with balcony that had a gorgeous view and appreciated that I had access to the sauna and gym but the staff were not very organized and were all over the place and obviously not managed well. It seems the management is not doing a great job. My suite was not cleaned properly. Breakfast was always chaotic with dirty tables and no plates and cutleries placed. It felt like they couldn't manage and handle the traffic. This was a feeling that was sensed in all areas of the hotel. It's a shame because it's a beautiful location.

Just had 3 nights here. We had booked a Marina View Suite which was fabulous - very spacious and comfortable (brilliant pillows)Staff very friendly. Good choice of breakfast buffet but the only negative was the staff were quite slow, from taking coffee/tea orders to bringing anything extra you may have asked for. There was some confusion regarding us booking a driver - we spoke to one of the concierge on the phone but when we went down the following day to meet the car, it hadn’t been booked. The reception staff were very helpful and managed to get a taxi to us very quickly instead. We will definitely recommend and return to the hotel if we are visiting the area again
