The hotel is located in a quiet leafy street very close to Kensington Gardens, making it a prime spot for our visit to Kensington Palace. The rooms are equipped with all one can need and offer great value for money. However, the dining options were a bit lacking as nothing was provided in terms of food, which was unexpected. The service was friendly but could have been more attentive.

The hotel was in a quiet location but close to good restaurants and pubs. The room, though fully equipped with kitchenware, felt small for a deluxe suite. It was convenient for its amenities but had some design concerns.

The hotel is nicely located, close to transportation options and perfect for various needs. The rooms are spacious and quiet, equipped with useful amenities, although some items were missing on this occasion. The service was friendly, but there were intermittent disturbances. The location offers easy access to different parts of London, but noise can be a factor. The dining options are limited but within walking distance. Overall, a good value for the money but with some minor shortcomings.

The hotel is a bit small, but honestly, for the location and price, it's great value. The rooms felt like we vastly overpaid; they were very small even though described as a superior studio. It was a health and safety concern for us with the hob too close to the bed, and a room for 2 people had only 1 chair for sitting.

The hotel is conveniently located just a 15-minute walk from the city center in a quiet leafy street very close to Kensington Gardens. The rooms, although in the basement with a small window for natural daylight, were very well-equipped and cleaned daily. The service was fantastic, with only a 5-minute walk from Queensway tube station. The dining experience offered authentic Indian dishes, but the breakfast options could be improved. The facilities were satisfactory, albeit no specific details provided.

The hotel is in a prime location nestled between Paddington and Hyde Park, making it very convenient for exploring London on foot. The rooms are more like a studio, perfect for longer stays, although there were some noticeable paint marks on the walls that seemed hastily covered up. The service was top-notch, except for an occasional noisy interruption from outside my room door. Dining options were within walking distance, but it would have been better to have some form of provided meal as an option. Overall, a great value for the money with excellent facilities.
