Lovely staff. Emails prior to stay not responded to which i would expect of a hotel of this standard; all sorted at check in though. Missed a proper hotel bar when we returned after spending the day out. Drinks are served in the restaurant. Having said that the staff were wonderful; just not quite as relaxing drinking at restaurant type tables laid for breakfast rather than in a bar area. I guess we would have known this had we researched a little better, and not the end of the world. Lifts and hallways were a little tired/could have done with a hoover.

Outstanding service from the hotel staff - they were amazing from check in to leaving. They couldn’t do enough for us. Jerry in particular was so friendly and went over and beyond. Fabulous location and would definitely stay here again.

We loved our stay at the Ampersand! The location is excellent and the proximity to the South Kensington tube station and Circle line is incredible. The staff were all kind and welcoming, and our room was lovely. We were fortunate to get upgraded from our booked room class, the room we received was spacious and very comfortable with fun little luxuries like heated bathroom floors and a television in the bathtub. The space and science-related decor in the hotel is beautiful and a fun complement to their teas. The included minibar was so convenient! A small thing but such a nice touch. We would not hesitate to return!
