Great stay!
Beautiful hotel in a perfect location. Close to South Kensington station and lots of great restaurants around. Rooms are very small with very little open space, but that is to be expected for big cities like London.

Staff was amazing, they held my luggage. Moved me to another room when I had morning noise issues. Cute area. I have stayed there twice and have a third trip coming I am looking forward to going back there. Great rooms and wonderful staff.
