What guests think

At Point A Kensington Olympia, travellers praise the friendly staff, clean modern interiors and convenient location near Earl’s Court, while repeatedly noting the very small rooms, limited storage, and extras like paid luggage storage and the lack of kettles.

Housekeeping is typically every three days, and several reviews mention maintenance niggles such as slow drains, weak water pressure or temperamental air conditioning, plus occasional traffic or internal noise. Breakfast is often described as good to excellent, though a number of guests found it repetitive or not worth the extra cost. Overall, expect a clean, budget-friendly base best suited to short stays and light packers.

Incidentals that you get for free in normal hotels - like baggage storage, borrowing an umbrella and checking in when the room is ready - are charged at this hotel. I would rather pay a small amount more and get a hotel that offers essential services without surprise charges

Basic but functional. Clean, quiet, efficient. Excellent breakfast buffet. No bar or restaurant. No mini-bar/fridge in room. Rooms are on the SMALL side… Still, would book it again, as it was clean, and did the job for us. If you have more than one suitcase, you will have to be creative. NO SPACE, to unpack anything.

Great location, close to large Tesco grocery store, earls court tube station (easy access to central London or Heathrow). Rooms are modern and renovated but small (typical for London). Wish they had a small fridge or access to fridge and microwave. Also complementary tea and coffee would be a nice touch. 9/10 will be back, excellent value!

Metro- type hotel, with old type furniture in reception areas, modern rooms in old buildings. Lift, accessible if required, smallish room and bathroom but functional. LED lighting and good climate control. Hot shower, small step, good lighting in bathroom. An exhaust fan would be good, but may not be possible. Large open space at foot of bed/s which could be great for luggage if a bench shelf went from side to side. Could double as seating too. Otherwise it's luggage on the floor which is a pain. Can't comment on breakfast. Very little hot water in the basin taps. This has been reported. It is on a busy road but we didn't hear much traffic at night, and did not hear neighboring rooms either. No fridge or tea making in rooms which for us was a nuisance, however hot water is available via staff and is free. Be sure to ask for x2 cups each cos the water is scalding hot. I feel it is far less safe walking back to rooms with a hot cup of water than a small electric jug in rooms. But space is limited. There are little cubby holes to put things in your room, and some hanging spaces on walls. Plenty of power points which was great.

The room was comfortable and clean if a little basic. I would recommend taking a travel kettle or its a visit to reception for hot water for tea and coffee.

The position was not bad, but all the rest wasn't good. For a 3 stars hotel I found the room was too small, very hot because the first night the air conditioned didn't work and the room was dirty (I found also a sock on the floor). Moreover the personnel wasn't very collaborative to solve these issues. I won't come back

My room was improperly, cleaned, there were still poop stains on the toilet seat. There was a lot of dust surrounding the bed. There was also here both around the bed and in the bathroom. The walls are super thin – heard the people upstairs going at it all night long. Looks like the staff who are supposed to be cleaning the rooms Do not do their job properly. Would not recommend staying here, not even for a one night stay. The front staff were amazing.

The hotel was in walking distance from the metro station and close to a big variety of fast food and coffee facilities. Foyer was really nice and breakfast was delicious. Rooms are a little small but enough space for the amount of time you spend there. Overall the room was clean but on our last day we noticed some mold on the air conditioning and on multiple places in the bathroom there was a lot limescale. We would stay there again for sure but we would check things like mold the moment we can go into our room.

The rooms were tiny, but we knew that beforehand. The problem is though, that they were really dusty and the air conditioning / heating blew so much dust into the room, you could see it. Also the air from the air conditioning smelled really bad, kind of musty. The shower was moldy. You only get one towel per person and a bathroom rug, no additional towels for your face or hands. Room cleaning services are only provided after three nights. If you arrive earlier than 3 p.m and want to leave your luggage in the hotel they charge you 3 £ per bag, no matter the size. The lobby, which also serves as the breakfast room, is quite nice. The continental breakfast, however, does not really offer vegan or lactose-free options even though they say they do.

The location was incredibly convenient to walk to shopping and transit. The hotel was nice enough however the room was impossibly small. The room is the size of the bed, some luggage pieces can fit under the bed and there was an unused corner where my checked bag went (medium sized checked bag). The room needs some attention as there was water damage in the bathroom and damage to the wall by the window. Location truly is key if you're booking this hotel. Knowing the size will be small also helps so there are no surprises (we knew it would be small when we booked). Price was great considering the location. Overall good stay.

Staff were lovely but room was dirty, had been smoked in and the shower dripped all night which made it hard to sleep. We also booked 2 rooms and at 9:30pm they called my son and cancelled my his room (he hadn’t check in in yet as was playing a professional football match and we had to go straight to dinner from there). That meant he had to stay in another hotel which was an hour away from this one walking or 45 mins by train. That really messed up our morning as it meant we couldn’t see him and had to send his birthday gifts over to the other hotel by Uber in the morning. Although the staff obliged and were lovely, it was a poor effort on behalf of Point A. Cancelling that late in the evening when you are already out is not good. How do you double book a room? He had already paid for it. We almost always use Point A hotels when going to London. Not sure we will use this one again.

The BEST thing about this hotel is their staff. I arrived at the hotel early on a Thursday morning and the gentlemen working the front desk was extremely welcoming and friendly, he shortly was coming off his shift and the young lady was also very friendly and welcoming. I arrived earlier than my check in time and they made sure my bags were safe and that I was comfortable in their lobby awaiting for my room. The young women also working the breakfast station was very sweet. The next day I woke up late after breakfast hours and I inquired about getting a coffee… She had already cleaned and seemed like she was getting off her shift but she took the time to make me a coffee. All three of these employees are amazing and I very much hope they are appreciated. I could tell right away they work hard and they care about their job and the guests. Thank you to the 3 of you! The hotel was also very very clean and a great location. The tube is just down the street and I was able to get to any tourist attraction or shopping 15 min. I will definitely be booking again next time in London.

The room was lovely — small, but nicely decorated. It had a clean, almost clinical feel to it. The building itself is beautiful, and Kensington is a charming area to stay in. However, the location isn’t the most convenient. There’s no Underground station nearby, so you’ll likely end up walking quite a bit or relying on Uber to get around. The bed was comfortable but very small — if you’re sharing with a tall or larger partner, a standard double might feel too tight. Unfortunately, the sink was also blocked during my stay, which was a bit inconvenient. The carpet in the hallway could definitely use some TLC, as it’s starting to look a little worn. That said, I still had a pleasant stay overall. Thank you to the team for the hospitality!

I needed to spend three nights in London before my flight and this hotel's proximity to Earls Court Station clinched the deal. Having to schlepp your bags up and down the front steps is a bit of a bummer but the inside more than makes up for this. The lobby is stylish and this continues into the rooms. This is one of the smallest rooms I’ve stayed in outside of the ferry I arrived on, but they tried their best to give bang for your buck. The bed is a good size and comfortable with bedside tables and a cabinet for your things. There’s a tiny fold-away desk/console, air-conditioning, TV, free WiFi, a divided bin for rubbish and recycling - which I personally saw all goes in the same bag - a hairdryer... and that’s it. There’s no kettle or tea & coffee, fridge or even a chair/stool to use the desk. Sadly, the only place to put your luggage is under the bed or on the floor under the console, which I chose, and I managed to avoid tripping over it during the night! The washroom was very nice with everything you need in a compact space. There was a nice, neighbourhood view out the window. Breakfast is available onsite, however, I chose to eat out. It was fine for a short stay, but I would choose a bigger room if possible next time.

Looked after our luggage and didn’t over charge us as we had more than 3 "bags". They allowed us to hang around My only issue was breakfast. As we booked through hotel.com we needed to pay £13 each. So that was £26. It really isn’t worth it. Pastries, cereals, fruit, hot pastries (wasn't any left when we came in) teas, coffee ect. Overall would stay again just wouldn't pay for breakfast.
