The hotel room was filled with the worst smell of sewage I've ever smelt, and it was quite cramped with a loose toilet seat and small bath towels. The exterior was not well-maintained, covered in pigeon droppings with no view from the window. The breakfast experience was a bit embarrassing for us as guests.

The hotel's location is exceptional, close to Hyde Park/Kensington Gardens and a short walk to Queensway underground, with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. However, the room cleanliness left much to be desired, with a strong alcohol smell and dustiness. The service was friendly but had some major issues, including giving two individuals the same room key and taking too long to handle paperwork.

My stay at the hotel was really nice, although the rooms were a tad bit small and not very soundproof. The service was more than helpful, but there was a slight hiccup with payment.

The hotel has a very comfortable stay with quiet rooms and efficient air conditioning. The slightly harder mattress provided exceptional comfort. However, there were some outdated aspects in the room, including limited plugs, non-functional Wi-Fi, and late check-in times, making things a bit inconvenient. The lack of attached bedside tables was also a downside.

The dining experience had some ups and downs. While the food was plentiful, some items seemed to have been standing for a while, such as beans with skin and black hairs in the french toast.

The hotel was ideal for a family stay, with good and very clean rooms, but some noise disturbances at night. The service was excellent and supportive, making the stay pleasant.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room was not great with a strong scent upon arrival and small space, but the bathroom was nice. The service was unprofessional, noisy, and the lift was not working, forcing me to use the staircase, which was not ideal, especially being pregnant. The location, however, was fantastic with easy access to shops, stations, and Kensington gardens. The dining experience was disappointing with limited options. Overall, the hotel had its flaws but was saved by its great location.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The newly refurbished superior room had a nice street/park view, but it was full of damp patches, dirty walls, and a terrible mattress. The twin room mix-up and cleanliness issues were disappointing, but I tried to make the best of it.
