The hotel room was a bit cramped with poor lighting, ventilation, and no view. The bed was not very comfortable, and the bathroom was small and in need of updating. On the plus side, the hotel is conveniently located near metro stations and cafes, making it ideal for exploring the surrounding area.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well air-conditioned, although being located opposite the staff door. The service was exceptional, with staff being very welcoming and helpful, from the friendly restaurant chef to the room service and housekeeping. The location was convenient, close to the Gloucester tube station and within walking distance to Kensington Palace and Hyde Park. The dining experience was a bit chaotic and slow, not worth the money for a buffet-style meal in my opinion. Overall, a good choice for its facilities and value for money.

I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hotel. The room was spacious, cozy, and surprisingly quiet despite overlooking a busy street. However, there were occasional buzzing noises that disrupted my sleep throughout the night. The service was exceptional, with staff always going above and beyond to meet my needs. The location was great, just a short walk from Kensington high street and conveniently close to the tube station. The dining options were a bit limited and overpriced, but the Executive Lounge provided a nice touch. Overall, a comfortable stay with excellent service and a prime location.
