Love It!
My second time staying here and it won't be my last. Absolutely love the rooms, the club areas, the location itself, and the hospitality of everyone who works there. It feels upscale and attentive without being stuffy. Super convenient to tourist areas, but also easy to relax in the area and feel at home. Definitely a home-away-from-home for me when I'm in London. The vibe is somehow both hip and unpretentious, and just really makes me feel at home. Can't wait for my next visit!
Megan, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was a great hotel. Location, service was exceptional, and the quietest room I have ever had (I asked for a quiet room). Highly recommend.

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful hotel. Staff very accommodating. A 2 min stroll from Gloucester rd tube station. Plenty of shops, bakery, bars and restaurants close by. Felt a safe area
Sandra, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Fiona, 3-night trip

Loved The Other House
Only stayed one night but was a beautiful hotel located in such a cute area - south Kensington
Catherine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location and decor; no breakfast for price
Great location with Gloucester Road underground less than 5 minutes walk away with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby and a short walk to the natural history museum. The room was beautiful and it was great to have a kitchen set up in the room. For the price of the stay, I feel breakfast should have been included and it was also a shame that dinner wasn’t an option after 6pm. It was also hard to order room service on the app so we had to call the hotel itself to ask for room service as there wasn’t a phone in the room or a way to order. Decor was beautiful and the spa was lovely also; pool was quite chilly so I’m glad the steam and sauna was available. Staff were very attentive and we were able to leave our bags on the last day and return back for them before our train home. I’d definitely return to this hotel as the location is perfect.

Quirky room high up under the roof was fun and nice but no lift for the last bit
Eric, 1-night trip

Very nice hotel in an upscale neighborhood. Close to the Tube. It felt very safe. A little far from the Tower area, but about 15 min. Tube ride to most other attractions.
Kathleen, 3-night trip

Eclectic decor; well appointed kitchenette, large (for London) room, great facilities.
William, 3-night trip

Hidden gem
Location and cosy rooms rock. Attitudes of staff working at the reception may improve. More smiling faces would support hotel’s unforgettable status.

Vicky, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I loved it. Our stay was perfect. The hotel is gorgeous, and anyone that knows London, knows it’s in the best area. Not too touristy, but still super vibey with posh locals. Food is great, room is great and facilities are amazing! I can’t wait to come again
