Stayed 1 night

Room was ok. Bed is very hard and there is some sort of emergency light that blinks red directly over the bed which was a bit annoying. Everything else was ok. Breakfast seamed like good value but didnt eat it. Weird check-in process (in sister hotel next door) was only sent to us after we had checked in and figured it out ourselves. Overall decent value for money but with the caveat that you can end up on the top floor so you need to be fit enought to climb 5 flights of stairs.

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.

The first night my room was very cold. The next day (probably) housekeeping had turned on the radiator. When i came back at night, the room was about 30 degree and the radiator too hot to touch. I was left balancing the temperature my self by opening the window and adjusting the radiator. Also the water pressure was so low it was difficult to wash and it took forever until it was warm enough.
