Stayed at the squint splash suite for a special occasion. The room is rather old. For the price, I would expect the hotel to atleast give a complimentary bottle of champagne for special occasions. But it did not feel special, hence the okay (3) score. The bathroom is very slippery so be cautious. I almost slipped. There is no fridge. The hot tub was throwing water everywhere and there was no way to turn it off unless asked at reception. The room is on -1 level. The breakfast was ok too, no made to order food. Staff was good and helpful. Overall, the price of the room is just for the space since it’s big and in South Kensington. And the bathroom is big too. But definitely not worth the price at all. At this price, I would expect outstanding quality but it truly was just okay.

The bathroom was very poor, the sink was so set back between two interior walls that I had to stand sideways to brush my teeth. The light in our room 104 kept flickering, reported to reception and never got fixed in the 3 nights staying there and the bed slats were broken

Liked: Cleanliness
Check in was friendly and efficient but upon arriving into the room, the temperature had been set to a face-melting 27.5 degrees on both of the a/c units. The room itself (we had the Jimmy Martin Suite) was funky enough but some of the fittings were worn and it didn’t have very well thought through layout - awkwardly placed plugs by the bed for example. Breakfast was a disappointment too (quite basic) and in general we felt a little underwhelmed by the whole experience which was meant to be an anniversary celebration.

This is a beautiful boutique hotel in a great location. South Kensington tube station is a 5 minute safe walk away and it serves the Piccadilly Line which is a direct transit to Heathrow airport, Piccadilly Circus, Leicester Square, Covent Garden, Knightsbridge …. which made my life a lot easier as a solo traveller. The hotel is spotless and my bedroom on the first floor was lovely. The photos on Expedia website do this hotel justice. I didn’t avail of breakfast but on the night I arrived I had dinner in the hotel and I found it very tasty. Before I arrived I sent several messages via the Expedia app to the hotel. All messages were answered promptly and all my requests were granted. The biggest compliment I can pay this hotel is to say that for my next visit to London I will endeavour to stay here again. Thank you to all staff I encountered on my visit. I haven’t anything negative to comment on.
