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.

Shay, Afisa, and the rest of the staff were wonderful and so welcoming! They went above and beyond to make sure my stay was perfect from the moment I arrived until I checked out. The rooms and property were very clean and well maintained and the location is perfect. I would definitely love to book another stay here in the future.

Spotlessly clean but tiny room perfect for an overnight stay. Great bed, quiet room, great blackout curtains and mood lighting. The staff were extremely friendly. I didn’t do breakfast but it looked good. I will definitely return as it’s great value for money.

Nice staff. Poor service - room got cancelled .
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 property was okay altogether but the beds are uncomfortable. Even though the rooms are like little hub hotels, i still felt as though the bathrooms were way too small. No room to manoeuvre. It is a decent hotel if your stay is for only one or 2 nights.

The Point A was a great basic hotel (but it had everything we needed) in a perfect location (Kensington). The lobby cafe was convienient (with a fresh, yummy menu), bright and welcoming. The rooms were small but very clean, technology friendly and quiet. Staff were always available and very helpful. The hotel is in walking distance of a big grocery store and the metro station. I would definitely recommend this hotel if you don’t need a full service hotel. Fabulous experience and great value!
