    Für unseren Kurztrip nach London suchten wir ein zentral gelegenes Hotel in Kensington - nähe Royal Albert Hall. Mit der Buchung des Ampersand Hotels haben wir einen Volltreffer gelandet. Service, Komfort, Sauberkeit und last but not least das sensationelle Personal dieses Hauses haben uns mehr als begeistert. Wir haben uns rundherum wohl gefühlt und […] bedauerten bereits nach 2 Nächten wieder abzureisen. JEDEM LONDON-REISENDEN KÖNNEN WIR DIESES HAUS NUR EMPFEHLEN! Read more

    The Ampersand Hotel ist ein wirklich komplett neu renoviertes Hotel mit altehrwürdiger Fassade. Das Interieur ist modern und frisch. Der Service ist ausgezeichnet und insbesondere sehr freundlich. Die Preise sind - gemessen am hohen Londoner Preisnineau - angemessen. Das Hotel liegt nur fünf Gehminuten vom absolut Natural History Museum entfernt. Ebenfalls […] in der Nähe lädt Harrods zum Shoppen ein. Die Zimmer sind modern eingerichtet, aber relativ klein. Der Stil mit den imposanten Betten und den dunklen Möbeln ist vermutlich nicht jedermanns Sache, vermittelt aber eine sympathische Atmosphäre. Die Badezimmer sind ebenfalls komplett neu, aber klein. Der Duschkopf ist riesig und überrascht trotzdem mit einem guten Wasserdruck. Das technische Equipment ist tadellos, WLAN ist kostenlos. Das Frühstück war variantenreich, allerdings nicht im Preis inbegriffen. Es wird im Restaurant im Souterrain serviert. Neben dem Foyer gibt es einen farbenfrohen Sitzbereich, der zu Tee und Kuchen einlädt. Etwas besorgt war ich vor der Buchung, man würde in den Zimmern von der U-Bahn gestört. In der Tat spürte ich die U-Bahn, als wir durch das Foyer gingen. In unseren Zimmern im ersten und zweiten Stock wurden wir jedoch nicht durch die U-Bahn gestört. Unter dem Strich fühlt man sich im Ampersand wohl. Wer in einem wirklich neuen, kein bisschen verwohnten und doch individuellen Hotel zu einem fairen Preis übernachten möchte, ist hier gut aufgehoben. Read more
