Great location - in the heart of South Kensington (centre of London), just near a subway station that goes directly to Heathrow Airport. Nice infrastructure around: cafes, restaurants, bars, groceries, etc. Rooms are tidy and spacious. It is possible to leave your luggage on the reception before the check-in and after the check-out. There are common kitchens with fridges on each floor.
FranceBreakfast was great - especially for vegan/plant based diets. The staff - especially Pavla! - was very friendly and extremely helpful.
GermanyVery handy for the South Kensington Museums and Kensington Gardens. Quiet location despite being in central London - far preferable to the small hotels located along the main thoroughfares into the city. Comfy, had a little terrace with a delimited opening door overlooking the square.
United KingdomConvenient and comfortable room, ideally located for meetings in ICL. Good for an overnight stay.
United KingdomIs the second time I have booked this place. It has an excellent location close to the tube, perfect for reach every part of London. The Albert Music Hall, the natural museum, the Kensington Palace is pretty close to and several interesting places.
Guatemala-very good location -possibility to leave luggage before and after checking in/out -friendly staff -close to museums, tourist places and grocery store
PolandMy second visit this hotel and now I had a room with a view to the park. Thanks for that! At the reception desk A nice young man greeted me in Finnish! The room was clean and quiet.
FinlandLocation and price can't be beat. Don't have great expectations for a grad residence.
CanadaLocation was excellent, clean and well taken care of rooms, easy to leave baggage there for a few hours after check-out
