There is a girl who works at the cafe and breakfast who is not only totally incompetent. She was so disrespectful to me and my elderly companions. We were actually in shock because we have never experienced such poor service. Then the manger came out with another 2 men and started attacking us. Accusing us of being in the wrong. When this girl stuffed up constantly. She was nothing but RUDE and the way we were treated by her and the manager of the restaurant/cafe was wrong on so many levels. The shame is that the front desk staff were great. It was only this bad experience with this girl that ruined our stay and hence I won’t be back.

Got an early paid check in with Precious. Staff over our week were responsive in person and on Whatsapp. Our upstairs was hot (up to 26) so we had to keep the living area downstairs cool(19) to compensate. The fan provided helped move the air around. Love the atmosphere, services and location.

Great stay, comfortable and well designed room. Warm friendly welcome. The ac didn’t work but it was very cold outside so we opened the window. Ambient temperature in the room was too warm for sleeping otherwise. Apart from this perfect stay, clean well appointed room and super quiet. Gym is a bit sparse so wouldn’t bother with this.

Very convenient to Earl’s Court underground station. Just get on the Underground from Heathrow airport to Earl’s Court about 30-40 minutes. The staff at Kensington was absolutely wonderful and accommodating. We will visit London again and stay at this hotel.
