Top Kensington Gardens Hotel Reviews

Royal Lancaster London

8/10 Good

"I was told that we had been booked into a Junior Suite, but unfortunately, the room we received was extremely small—almost like a closet. There was barely enough space for my husband and me to move around comfortably, and there was no adequate space for our luggage. For two people staying in a Junior Suite, the room was simply not practical. And if you are shopping or traveling with additional luggage, there is virtually nowhere to put anything. I was very disappointed because I specifically understood that we were getting a Junior Suite and expected considerably more space and comfort."

Zedwell Piccadilly Circus

8/10 Good

"A good nights sleep, not much else to say. I’ve had better stays here in the past, clearly some rooms are better than others."

Royal Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and spacious. Though I arrived two hours before check in they were able to find a room that was available immediately for me to settle in, which was great I stayed on the third floor facing the Main Street and found it to be very quiet and peaceful at night. The linens were nice, the bed was comfy, and the towel warming rack in the bathroom worked really well. The team was super friendly and helpful, and I loved how close the hotel was to Kensington Gardens! It made for a perfect morning walk."

The Cumberland, London

Mitre House Hotel

8/10 Good

"Easy access to the tube and also yo Kensington and Hyde Parks"

Thistle London Hyde Park Kensington Gardens

8/10 Good

"Overall we had a mixed stay. There a lot of good things ie the staff, food and location. On a slightly negative side the bedding could be improved and something that can’t be changed .. the proximity to the road bcos on a few occasions the sirens from police cars woke me up. Also I paid for a family room with a double bed and a single. However we recieved a room with two single beds in it and we recieved no explanation or refund."

St. David's Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean nice little place. I stayed in the solo travellers accommodations on the top floor and found it just enough to be comfortable for my 5 night stay. The shared bathroom was no big deal and I found I barely ran in to the other guests despite the whole place being booked"
