Pros: The location is great. Right around the corner from the V&A and the Natural History Museum. Across the street from the Tube, and surrounded by great restaurants. This was the perfect home base for a weekend in London. The decor was charming and whimsical, sort of Alice in Wonderland with lots of bright colors and a bird theme which ran through the hotel. Our room was small as most London Hotels are, and finding a place to stow the luggage was a bit of a hat trick, but once we figured it out, everything was great. Although we never had breakfast at the hotel, we did have morning coffee and tea in the tea room every day. Delightful. Would return in an instant!

Pros: The hotel is truly lovely. I think we had the smallest room there which I booked unknowingly. But it worked just fine. The bed was so comfy. There were slippers and robes and the bathroom floor was heated. The daily tea was also very nice. I can't write enough to explain how exceptional the hotel, staff and location were. You will have to try it for yourself. Overall I plan to go back to London and stay here again.

Pros: I loved pretty much everything about the hotel. I stayed there twice in September. It was gorgeous inside, extremely well located near the South Kensington tube and nearby pubs and restaurants in Chelsea, the staff was simply wonderful and the rooms were pretty and very comfortable. Also loved the front room where you can grab a bite to eat and a glass of wine, and the breakfast room downstairs. The free water, juices and soft drinks provided in the bar fridge were a nice touch.

Also loved the front room where you can grab a bite to eat and a glass of wine, and the breakfast room downstairs. The free water, juices and soft drinks provided in the bar fridge were a nice touch.
Cons: The gym was very well appointed in terms of weights, towels and free water but the space was too small in my view, it needed to be at least double the size as only 2-3 people would comfortably fit. Equally, the smaller hotel rooms (where my sisters stayed) have limited space if you are staying for more than 2 nights, but the hotel reception kindly advised us of this beforehand.

Pros: Great location, nice staff, comfortable bed

Pros: The location was good and the staff were very efficient. Hotel was clean and service was excellent.

Cons: I think the lighting in rooms could be improved. Carpet looking a bit tired. Guests above us had very noisy children so perhaps room allocation of families with small children needs to be considered - we did have to call reception several times as it was very annoying having the noise above us.

Featured amenities include a 24-hour business center, express check-in, and express check-out. This hotel has 2 meeting rooms available for events.
Set in an elegant Victorian building surrounded by the beauty and lushness of the private Egerton Gardens, a perfect counterpoint to bustling Knightsbridge and neighborhood of Harrods and the Victorian & Albert Museum. The hotel combines the warmth of a private home, the impeccable service of a luxury hotel and Anouska Hempels timeless, Italian-influenced design. The resulting dramatic-yet-whimsical design creates a standout on the London luxury hotel scene.

Pros: We loved our stay at Crown Plaza right from the moment we were greeted warmly at the hotel entrance. The staff were very friendly and helpful and went out of their way to accommodate our wish for a quiet room with a view. Thank you, Simon! Breakfast was a bonus in a spacious area with a very broad selection (including full English breakfast) to cater for the many international guests. The location is excellent with shops, supermarket, pubs all very close. Gloucester Road Underground station is across the road which has a direct link to Heathrow. (Does have some steps, though.) The restaurant is good and the bar area which opens onto a private park is exceptional in warm weather. Overall the vibe of this hotel is of a busy but well organised property with a family friendly, welcoming, international home away from home feel!

Pros: The concierge is great. They are helpfull, fast n courteous.
Cons: The room that l stayed in has the most awkward lay out. The toilet roll fixture was placed at the side of the bathtub exactly where you get in n out. It got splashed by water from the shower, and one can easily slip over its 15cm protruding metal rod for the spare tissue roll. The magnifying glass was only able to face to the toilet area n not to your face. The toilet flusher was behind the toilet cover. So each time you need to flush it, you ll have to first close the cover. The distance between the wall mirror inside the bathroom, to where you stand in front of the basin was so far that one need to bent extra to see your makeup. But this issue may not be for everybody. One who is taller then my 5.4" height maybe able to reach it better. In general... l used to stay at Crown Plaza Singapore. The experience is very different.

A stylish central London hotel with a Georgian façade, meeting facilities, free Wi-Fi and a chic restaurant Crowne Plaza® London-Kensington hotel is just steps from Gloucester Road Tube station, from where it's six minutes to national rail and coach connections at Victoria station and eight minutes to trains at Paddington station. The hotel is a 30-minute car ride from Heathrow Airport (LHR) and less than five miles from the M4 motorway. Enjoy a night at the Proms in the Royal Albert Hall, 13 minutes walk from the hotel. Exhibitions at the Natural History Museum, Science Museum and Victoria and Albert Museum are within easy walking distance, and it's a five-minute taxi ride from the hotel to Harrods and the shops of Knightsbridge. You can host meetings and events for up to 150 people in the hotel's five, naturally lit meeting rooms with the support of our Crowne Plaza Meetings Director. Free Wi-Fi and plenty of power outlets keep you completely connected, and delegates can enjoy a breath of fresh air in our large garden. If you're attending a conference at Olympia London, it's a handy seven-minute taxi ride from the hotel. Want to work out? Use the cardiovascular machines and free weights in our well-equipped fitness centre. Then relax in the evening over pad Thai or lamb curry to the sounds of jazz or swing in Umami restaurant.
The Pelham is an elegant boutique hotel in the heart of South Kensington. It is located a short walk from the Natural History Museum and Kensington Gardens, which seem to have inspired the brightly colored interiors. Here one is surrounded by a romantic mix of elegant patterns and rich tones. It has long been considered among the most sophisticated places in London. Settle in and revel in the character of the wood-panelled drawing room and library. Make time for a little indulgence with an afternoon tea or a dinner at The Trattoria by Michelin starred chef Alfredo Russo. Step out and explore the boutiques and worldclass museums of Kensington.

Pros: Perfect location immediately across the street from the South Kensington Tube stop. Has a large elevator which a lot of these townhome-style hotels do not have. There are a couple of stairs from elevator to room, but far better this than lugging luggage up flights of stairs. We dropped our luggage in the morning and returned in the evening and they had already moved bags up into our room for us.

Pros: Great location, clean and pretty hotel with friendly staff. Room was remarkably quiet considering location. We were in and out quickly so we didn't get to spend much time there.
Cons: There's only one thing that could have been better and that was the size of the room. We'd booked a superior room but it was quite small with stairs inside the room and some things (tea pot, hair dryer) to be plugged into the closet with too narrow a space for two of us to pass each other from bedroom to bathroom. Otherwise, it was perfect and I'd book again but in a different room type.

Cons: The WiFi was terrible. It connected, but was too slow to make worthwhile. Also, the tv channels didn’t include any sports! Not that I wanted to waste my vacation watching sports on tv in a hotel, but it would’ve been nice to keep up on scores and such. Also the old building was very creaky. I was awaken by the neighbors above two nights.

Pros: Very cheerful street presence. The geraniums were still in bloom and it was very pleasant to walk down the street and see the welcoming entrance. The front courtyard was very well presented. The room was well laid out and welcoming. Up to date and spotless. the housekeeping staff were thorough and diligent. They did a marvellous job of tidying our room every day. Thank you for that. Nice reading lamps in the wall, a night table on each side with electrical outlets. The suite had a mini kitchen tucked behind behind two frosted glass closet doors and held two electric burners, a nice sized sink and a relatively large mini fridge, a toaster, and a kettle, microwave, pots, pans, cutlery, dishes, glasses, cutting board. It was perfect! It was tight with not a lot of counter space between the sink and the burner elements but we managed without any hardship really. It was a lovely room with windows that opened into a courtyard storage area for the hotel. Even though there were a few employees heading in and out of the storage area from time to time, they didn’t disturb us at all. Our room also had the elevator shaft built into it and I never once heard the elevator. You could hear muffled voices in the hall as they got on and off (which is to be expected) but we never once the elevator at work. Very quiet. Very quiet hotel for the most part. And well situated as well. Within a short walking distance you had access to overground trains, underground trains, bus, a shopping mall, grocery stores, dry cleaners. Shepherds Bush is a good 7 to 10 minute walk. We didn’t find that problematic in the least. It was a very enjoyable walk.

Pros: The pictures dont do it justice. I would have paid more would highly recommend and will be coming back.
Cons: Faultless
9.2 Excellent
Pros: It was great! So handy to loads of transport options to go anywhere. The staff were helpful. The room was a comfortable size with all you could need. Being able to leave your bags there while you went about your day after checking out was so handy. Overall a great experience.
Cons:
7.1 Good
Pros: Near Olympia - good for us!
Cons: Very small! Tv connection rubbish!
7.1 Good
Pros: A basic hotel, reasonably priced.
Cons: Most of the stay was fine, but twice we were given dirty towels, and one afternoon they turned the water off to the building for hours without warning. When we went to inquire, it turned out it was planned maintenance, but they did not bother to warn the guests. The bed was poor quality and you could feel the individual springs in the mattress.
6.3 Good
Pros: Water was hot.
Cons: The room was really a single with a double bed in it. The photos where not representive.
7.5 Good
Pros: Very cheerful street presence. The geraniums were still in bloom and it was very pleasant to walk down the street and see the welcoming entrance. The front courtyard was very well presented. The room was well laid out and welcoming. Up to date and spotless. the housekeeping staff were thorough and diligent. They did a marvellous job of tidying our room every day. Thank you for that. Nice reading lamps in the wall, a night table on each side with electrical outlets. The suite had a mini kitchen tucked behind behind two frosted glass closet doors and held two electric burners, a nice sized sink and a relatively large mini fridge, a toaster, and a kettle, microwave, pots, pans, cutlery, dishes, glasses, cutting board. It was perfect! It was tight with not a lot of counter space between the sink and the burner elements but we managed without any hardship really. It was a lovely room with windows that opened into a courtyard storage area for the hotel. Even though there were a few employees heading in and out of the storage area from time to time, they didn’t disturb us at all. Our room also had the elevator shaft built into it and I never once heard the elevator. You could hear muffled voices in the hall as they got on and off (which is to be expected) but we never once the elevator at work. Very quiet. Very quiet hotel for the most part. And well situated as well. Within a short walking distance you had access to overground trains, underground trains, bus, a shopping mall, grocery stores, dry cleaners. Shepherds Bush is a good 7 to 10 minute walk. We didn’t find that problematic in the least. It was a very enjoyable walk.
Cons: I didn’t like the heating/cooling system. It would appear that the controls for the entire set of suites in building are at the reception desk. There is a control panel in each suite but it is regulated by the main control. The only access to temperature control in your room is how hot or cold your room based on the program they’ve chosen, but not whether you want heat vs cold. If the A/C was on you couldn’t change that. You could turn it off but then there was no air movement. And the A/C was cold. Set at 18C. We had one cool rainy day and reception turned off air and put the control at Heat. Our room was so warm it was uncomfortable sleeping. So no happy medium with the temperature controls and no in-suite regulation. The thing I really really didn’t like was the bathroom door. It was a sliding door and it was a frosted glass. No privacy really. And when you slid it shut, unless you pushed and slid at the same time, it made a god awful screech like nails on a chalkboard. No electrical outlets in the bathroom. Blow dryer was hardwired in the closet and the closet was just outside of the bathroom door. The cord wasn’t quite long enough to reach into the bathroom. I would suggest in the kitchen they might put a can opener, a corkscrew & bottle opener and a pair of scissors. I went to reception to borrow a can opener but they didn’t have on there either. Thankfully we travel with our own corkscrew! Also, my husband and I enjoy our coffee in the morning. We each have 3 cups before we even think about starting our day. Every day we had to go to the front desk to ask for a couple of pods as the 1 each provided just wasn’t enough. Every day our requests were met with a scowl and a hard glare. The coffee is complimentary so don’t make your guests work that hard to be comfortable - especially when we were there for 8 days.

Pros: Location was convenient and quiet, local supermarket only a couple of minutes away, overground station also a couple of minutes walk.
Cons: Bed was very small for the two of us - like a king-sized single bed - the bedside tables were fixed to the sides of the bed which made it feel quite cramped.

Cons: An earlier check in would have been better. 3 o clock is quite late . We were going to proms at Hyde park so didn't actually get in room till after midnight and left again at 9.30 the following morning . But, a beautiful hotel and very comfortable.
9.6 Excellent
Pros: Awesome location, girls behind the desk were lovely and helpful. Massive rooms and beautiful garden out the back.
Cons: I didn’t have breakfast included in my booking which was fine, I paid for my breakfast and after getting my breakfast the host asked me for my room number, he then came back and told me it wasn’t included very rudely, I then gave him my receipt and he continued to yell at me so I gave him my receipt again and he just said oh, no sorry or anything. But still a lovely breakfast just didn’t feel very welcome
7.5 Good
Pros: Nice size rooms. Friendly staff. Clean.
Cons: Don't buy the breakfast. At nearly £20 each you should expect a certain standard. This was verging on dangerous. Undercooked bacon and sausage. Scrambled eggs were watery and a strange colour. Everything was cold. Literally the worst breakfast I've had in over 35 years of travelling.

Pros: The location is very convenient. Less than 5 minutes away from Gloucester Rd tube station with plenty of places to eat around the area
Cons: The furniture was dated and old. The chair did not feel solid and everything in the room looked and felt like it was at least 15 years old and had not been updated. The bathroom (whilst a good size) had a musty smell to it, which added to the feeling that this place needed an upgrade. The TV had very few channels on it (Freeview has more variety) and i couldn't even find the basic channels like BBC, ITV etc. There was very little room for hanging clothes since half the width of the (door-less) handing space was take up by the ironing board. The AC was very strong and the fan speed at its lowest was high. Trying to turn the temperature up or down was useless, you just get the same cool temperature. Not worth the price at all!! There are hotels in the area less than 5 minutes walk at a lower cost and significantly better than this.

Pros: the brilliant location of the hostel - right inside the Holland park, lovely. The staffs are quite supportive, both the people serving the front desk and the kitchen. I will come back alone, only.
Cons: NEVER accept room 011 please. What I dislike is that the guests can remove all the silence in the whole coming in and out the hotel - as they may think this underground room cannot be with guest but a laundry or equipment room. -hope it is just because I picked the worst room 011. Nothing good except the bed- which must be available in all the rooms. And, we ordered the breakfast + dinner package for the two days while got a surprise day by day the canteen were reserved by some group from 18:00-21:00, and I was forced to take two late dinners around 21:30, without earlier warning. Too bad a service. It is a problem of management. It is my first score giving under 8, sadly.

Maybe some signs should be put up to show how people should use a toilet and shower correctly. Simple stuff, but I guess some idiots need it.

Hyde Park is some 10-15 minutes walking from hostel, Notting Hill is also very close.
Cons: For the first time it might a little bit hard to find especially if you arrive after the sunset. Hostel is located in the park so there might be wasps and flies especially in bathrooms. There is little place between the beds and I always hit my head while waking up
8.3 Excellent
Pros: The surrounding, the buffet breakfast and the meals.
Cons:

Pros: I tried ordering a room service twice .. no one I mean no one picked up the phone for two days in a row and my toilet flush overloaded one of the days ! I had hair on my bed even after being made so obviously the sheets were not being changed . The shower curtain was wet three days In a row inside the tub. Inspite of having do not disturb I had the housekeeping knocking at my door one the days ! I have stayed here last year that’s why I rebooked . It was a terrible experience. The staff at the reception was helpful . There was a huge line for the lift after a long day one day as 4 out of 6 were out of order ! The keys to the room stops working after one use . I had to come Down from 21st floor for the first two days ..it was just a bad experience. There are no plug points next to the bed. The list goes on and on
