"Little gem!!!"
Very nice room, very clean.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"you will wish you had not stayed here"
The ownership of this hotel must use this property as a cash cow as they appear to have put no money into the rooms - 1980s carpet-like wall paper, musty carpets, water stains on the wall, mattresses that feel second-hand (worn out, little support, curved). Hotels.com did relay my complaints about my room to management, who moved me the second day […] to a different room (which had a better mattress). The Rydges hotel staff could not be bothered with my complaints upon check in. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Room not serviced"
Bit out of the way for business but OK if you are a tourist for south Kensington Museums, Hyde Park, Harrods etc. Room wasn't serviced one of the three days I was there which wasn't great, but otherwise, hotel is fine.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Good Base"
I t was my first time staying at this hotel.It is a pleasant location and I couldn't fault the room. The hotel is a good base but not the sort of lace one would want to spend anytime in. The bar is small and basic as is the reception area.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great value for money in Kensington"
I had an excellent stay at the very recenently refurbished Rydges Kensington. My executive room was (by London standards) fairly big and the continental breakfast had a large selection and great coffee. The service was ok - a bit slow when asking for extra pillows etc, the wireless network horrible and the staff did nothing much to help out but I didn't […] have to pay for it when I complained afterwards. If you wish to live close to the Picadilly line towards Heathrow but still want to be close to the city and have nice surroundings I can really recommend this hotel!

"Single room is made for a 3 year old child..."
...although hotel excellent in terms of cleanliness and overall, DO NOT book a single room. They stuffed me in a cabinet, probably smaller than the janitor closet where all his supplies are. Room and bathroom within it probably were about 8-9 sqr mts in total. Absurd. I went down to complain and managed to upgrade to executive king for a nominal charge […] per night and that was decent. Barring this i was ready to walk out of hotel without a thought. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

smallest room I have ever seen. Virtually no room to put the luggage on the floor.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Handy location - lovely interiors"
I was in London attending a conference and the location of this hotel so close to Gloucester tube station was great for getting to and from the venue and Heathrow. Its about 15 minutes walk to Knightsbridge if u fancy a stroll or just 1 tube stop. Room was immaculate as was reception, bar and restaurant. Cannot fault this hotel in any way.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Poor staff and tiny rooms"
We stayed at this hotel as we were exhibiting at a conference nearby. We turned up with quite a lot of bags etc as we had our exhinibtion stuff. We emptied the car outside the hotel and was watched by both the receptionist and the consierge as we carried them into the hotel. We presumed that they would assist to get things to the room, I went to park […] the car and on my return was amazed to find my wife had to carry everything to the room on her own, the receptionist said the consierge had gone on his break! She then said she didn't think we would fit everything in our room -we thought she was joking. It was the smallest room we have ever been in with literally a small space around the bed and about 3 steps to the bathroom, it was stupid and should never be sold as a double room. On leaving we started to bring our bags down and asked for assistance, the consierge was present, amazingly he disappeared again, but reappeared 10 minutes later when we had carried them down. There are lots of other hotels in the area for similar price or less, your money would be better spent with them. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Not impressed"
The hotel was simply a building site during my stay. It simply should not have been taking in guests. I really feel cheated. My room was in the basement which was dark and in need of thorough re-decoration.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Brilliant!"
Et lite boutique-hotell ved Kensington som jeg gjerne kommer tilbake til. Flere gode puber or restauranter rett i nærheten, i tillegg til at du kan ta kollektivt nesten rett opp til døren. Hotellet er lite og intimt, rommene er individuelt designet og gir en moderne følelse til et sjarmerende rustikk bygg. En sjeldenhet i UK er dusj med trykk i, men […] det finner du her! En særdeles hjelpsom dørvakt er også parat til å guide deg. Eneste minus er at WiFi ikke er inkludert i romprisen, det eneste som hindrer topp karakter på samtlige avkrysninger.

"Veldig små rom, litt støy fra gaten, bra service"
Jeg hadde et singelrom som var knøttlite. Kunne ikke åpne kofferten min helt pga av at det var så trangt (12kvm inkl bad). Gikk greit for meg, siden jeg er liten i str, men en stor voksen mann ville nok hatt litt problemer. Litt trafikkstøy fra gaten i løpet av natten, selv om mitt rom var i øverste etasje. Veldig hyggelige og servicemindede ansatte, […] som gjorde sitt ytterste for at mitt opphold skulle være bra. Pluss at banen som tar deg til Paddington og Heathrow express lå rett over gaten, samt at buss til Olympia Trade Exhibition Centre gikk rett utenfor hotellet! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great place"
Nice hotel in great neighbourhood. Close to subway and easy walking distance to V&A. The service is not as good as the rest of the hotel. Internet is not for free, I had to pay 10 pounds for an electric adapter. But great room in great location. Breakfast and bar is too expensive but worry not, great alternatives in the neighbourhood.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Hotellet har store muligheter"
Rommene er helt perfekte, flotte flisbelagte bad, rent og pent. Frokost bør bestilles sammen med rommene, en helt topp frokost. NB: Når de fremlegger frokost menyen er det nesten som at du skal betale for frokosten uansett om du har bestilt den med eller ikke, SPØR. Internett i resepsjonen, helt håpløst, det er som å sette deg 30 år tilbake, hvor du […] skal skrive livshistorien din før du får adgang, dette bør straks forenkles. Personalet er hyggelig og behjelpelig. Subway kun 50 m unna, buss stopp rett utenfor døren. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Vandrørene sprang"
da først vandrørene sprang om natten, fik jeg et ok værelse. indtil da, var jeg indlogeret i et kælderværelse, men rørene sprang og så kom jeg op i et dejligt værelse. men absolut ikke noget at skrive hjem om!!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
great location and definately value for money. the only negative is that the hotel is currently under rennovation and the noise level is quite annoying at times. generally not a well sound-insulated building. if they maintain the same price level after rennovation it will be a very good deal.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Low quality rooms"
Reception area and staff were very nice. The room was not very pleasant, not refurnished for decades, smelly and cold, definitely a 4 star experience. The restaurant next to the reception (part of the hotel) was good.Genuine Expedia guest review
