Lovely hotel in a great location.
Bathroom clean and looks new
Amenities in room - fan, refreshment tray, hairdryer, some toiletries
I had a single room, plenty big enough for me but fairly compact.
I had breakfast one day which was continental, lots of choice and an absolute bargain at £7.50!
Off the main thoroughfare but minutes from lots of restaurants, cafes, convenience stores and 2 tube stops so super easy to get around.
Definitely would recommend - price and location a steal for the area!

First room was quite noisy, was able to change rooms to a much quiter location.
Breakfast was varied and filling.
Location is great, multiple restaurants and few minutes to Bayswater tube stop.

This Hotel was in a great location to the Tube and it was also very walkable through Kensington Park. The room was very clean and comfortable. The included breakfast was very good. We had a daily cleaning service for our room. I would highly recommend The Phoenix Hotel for a stay in London.

Hotel was affordable, clean, and sufficient. All hotels in London are overpriced but this hotel was reasonable compare to other hotels, although far too expensive if it was located outside of London. hotel is clean so if you are looking for affordable, clean, safe hotel, this is the place to go to.
