Lord Kensington Hotel

The single room was super tiny but overall staff was nice and very good location

The location of thr Hotel is excellent, close to Earl's Court without being in the central strip which is noisy. The tube station is just around the corner behind the hotel and there is free on street parking if you can get a space 6.30- 8.30am. Unfortunately there is no residents lounge, bar or restaurant and no breakfast. The lift was out of order and it is quite a trek to the rooms without it. The room was very dared, and weirdly had plastic boards floor to half way up which was ill fitted and looked awful. The wallpaper above it was dated and didn't look any better. There were tea and coffee facilities (plenty of it) and the towels were a good size. The room was clean, the bedding was clean. The bed was dreadfully uncomfortable unfortunately, which meant very poor sleep buy at least I can confirm that it is quiet at night in the street, even on a weekend.

This hotel is conveniently based for central London. There was a warm welcome and I was given a key card and also a key for the front door should I wish to be back late. The room was a small single. Small tv. Tea and coffee making facilities. The small bathroom was clean and the shower was hot. Pillows were not great quality but the linens were clean. My problem was the paper thin wall between me and the next room. The person in that room was making work calls on speaker phone until midnight and then started again at 5am. He also appeared to have a coughing problem. It was a really unpleasant night as he seemed to keep going in and out of his room extremely loudly. His door was directly adjacent to my room. Although this is not the fault of the hotel, it really affected my nights sleep and so my rating.
