Marriott London Kensington
Oct 26, 2009 by Craig from Laurelton,NY

Overall Rating: 10

• Pleasant.
• Overpriced mini bar.

“Great hotel.”

Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington
Oct 23, 2009 by Carolyn from Sacramento,CA

Overall Rating: 8

• Good location and via Priceline, good price.
• Does not have Wi-Fi available.

“The room was quiet and clean with appropriate amenities such as small refrigerator, and enough room for a small table and chairs. With more people having i phones and the like, a hotel of this type should offer free Wi-Fi at lease in the lobby or bar. Having to use computers that are L1 per 10 minutes is just a way of nickel and dime for the guests.”

Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington
Oct 23, 2009 by Michael from Sierra Vista,AZ

Overall Rating: 8

• Great location to the tube.
• Out dated rooms. Bathroom had two spigots only cold and only hot.

“This is a hotel that is safe and clean. It is in a really great location. Near some decent restaurants and 3 in walk from the High Street Kensington tube station. The only drawback is the outdated furnishings, but this is minor. I would recommend this hotel, especially for the price.”

London Marriott Hotel Maida Vale
Oct 19, 2009 by Tracy from Flagstaff,AZ

Overall Rating: 7

• Close to London underground.
• Mattress wasn't comfortable, and rooms were dated.

“This hotel is a short walk from the Kilburn Park Underground Station. Lobby area is standard Marriott fare, while it seems the rooms have not yet made the Marriott renovation list. They were clean but a bit worn and the bathroom needed some repairs to tile and such. However, it was a good place to rest your head for the night and get around the town easily on the Tube.”

Marriott London Park Lane
Oct 17, 2009 by Michael from Shirlington,DC

Overall Rating: 7

• Great personalities.
• Very corporate, charged for internet.

“Solid four star hotel with a great location, the hotel primarily caters to business travelers. It has a wonderfully central location.”

Overall Rating: 10

• Easy access to the tube, very nice rooms, and great staff.

Overall Rating: 8

Oct 12, 2009 by Sylvia from Sherwood Park,Canada

Overall Rating: 10

• The servers were very efficient, in the dining room.
• The hot food was not included in the buffet breakfast, without paying more.

London-Regents Park Holiday Inn
Oct 1, 2009 by Jochen from Seattle,WA

Overall Rating: 0

• Convenient location.
• Cheap room style, and the low ceilings.

“Reasonable hotel for the leisure traveler, but far away from a 4-star hotel, simple accommodation, mini bar was not working, hotel bar was OK, and the shower was very low.”

London-Regents Park Holiday Inn
Oct 1, 2009 by Susan from Washington,DC

Overall Rating: 3

• Nothing
• Very old, worn hotel; poor housekeeping standards; mediocre location

“Definitely not a 4 star hotel; more like 2 stars. Not terribly clean. Everything in the room looked very old and worn. Overall a depressing place to stay.”

Harrington Hall Hotel
Sep 28, 2009 by Marie from West Vancouver,Canada

Overall Rating: 5

• Good Location.
• Shabby rooms, uninformed staff, hidden costs.

“The hotel is in a great location, but the staff are not very helpful or well-informed and the rooms are shabby and old. This is not a 4-star hotel.”

Hilton London Metropole
Sep 26, 2009 by Carrie from Norfolk,VA

Overall Rating: 4

• Location.
• Uncomfortable bed, stained rug, dingy hallway, expensive extras like Wi-Fi.

“The room was located in the older, dingy tower, not at all impressive. The room lacked plugs for charging travel appliances, and although clean enough, the room was very worn and tired. If this had been marketed as a good budget option, I would have expected less, and been less disappointed.”

Grosvenor House, A Jw Marriott Hotel
Sep 24, 2009 by Patricia from Arlington,VA

Overall Rating: 10

Holiday Inn LONDON-CAMDEN LOCK
Sep 24, 2009 by Carrie from Norfolk,VA

Overall Rating: 9

• Good location, well-run, clean.
• Thin walls - I had a very loud party next to me.

“Straight-forward, clean, nice accommodations, near the Camden Lock, Camden Market, and a Tube stop. Nicer than I expected from a Holiday Inn.”

Hilton London Kensington

Overall Rating: 8

• Great service, nice lobby and
  good location.

“The hotel lobby looks nice and the staff was very helpful.”

Nh Kensington
Sep 18, 2009 by Tony from New York,NY

Overall Rating: 4

• Not more than 3 to 3.5 star. Excellent location within easy walk of Earl's Court tube which has elevators for those pulling a bag.

“Towels are no better than at a budget, 2* hotel. Restaurant now closed except for breakfast, the price of which (despite recession) has gone up from $28 to nearly $30. There's no concierge, no bellman and beds are very Travelodge. Bare utilitarian bedrooms. Difficult to adjust AC and water flow in bath/shower as latter's knob is almost unmovable. Don't pretend to us this is four star, please!”

Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington
Sep 17, 2009 by Zhanna from NYC

Overall Rating: 2
Cleanliness:[4] • Staff:[2] • Location:[8]

• Great location, nice neighborhood, near Circle Tube Station, and comfortable beds.
• Outdated, moldy, smelly, highly over priced and incompetent hotel, forgot wak up call.

“The hotel forgot my wake up call! Never mind that they represented themselves as a 4 star (maybe 20 years ago it was), but now it is at best a 2 star, but any flea bitten motel even makes wake up calls! This one didn't and they didn't even apologize for it. The hallways smelled like turpentine and the bathroom in my room smelled like mold. They covered the bathroom walls with plastic panels to make it look new, but it was very plain to see and smell that it wasn't very fresh or clean!”

Best Western Delmere Hotel
Sep 17, 2009 by Ambarish from Lowell,MA

Overall Rating: 10

• Clean, friendly people, and
  lovely location.

“It was located at a lovely location, 5 minutes walk to the nearest subway and Hyde Park. The staff was very helpful, cost was brilliant and I definitely recommend this place. I was there for a conference and sight seeing. Being a student, needed a comfortable and affordable place. This place was the exact match I was looking for. They also helped me keep my luggage for the day I was not paying for! The hotel may seem very tight but that is what they could build out of the small houses in London. A double room was more than sufficient.”

Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington
Sep 17, 2009 by Lana from Staten Island,NY

Overall Rating: 1

• Comfortable beds, great location, close to the tube and stores and food.
• Poorly maintained hotel, the staff just didn't care.

“The lobby and restaurants are nicely maintained, they forgot about the rooms. The bathroom had obviously been flooded, but rather than fix the problem they covered up the moldy walls with paneling - but I could very plainly still smell the mold in the room! One night we ran out of toilet paper and the staff didn't seem to think that it was a problem! How hard is it to see that the roll is running out and leave an extra roll in the bathroom? An investigation into why I ran out of toilet paper does not help the situation!”

Hilton London Olympia
Sep 3, 2009 by Vonda from Naperville,IL

Overall Rating: 10

• It was in an excellent location. Staff was very helpful and friendly.
• I did not find anything to dislike.

“This hotel was a great quality hotel (especially for Europe). It was clean and very conveniently located. It was just off the tube and near bus lines to almost every tourist attraction.”

Hilton London Islington
Sep 3, 2009 by Aileen from Melrose,MA

Overall Rating: 7

• Very clean, good location, nice-sized room.
• Cold water tap didn't work right, AC was broken during my stay. Bed kind of springy.

“I would definitely stay in this hotel again if I got a good deal on Priceline. It was very close to public transport (subway and buses) and there were many restaurants and shops around. The room was clean and comfortable. However, the ac didn't work while I was there. It wasn't hot but after I was through lugging my things from the tube station to the hotel, I was looking forward to cranking up the AC. Also the cold water tap was broken and even if turned all the way on, it would only drip. They offered to move me to another room for the next night but since I only stayed two days, I didn't think it was worth switching.”

Hilton London Green Park
Aug 26, 2009 by Chris from Philadelphia,PA

Overall Rating: 8

• Good location, friendly service

“Good hotel. Everything was clean and nice, and the tea set was refreshed every morning (tea was also free). Small, but just what we wanted.”

Marriott London Park Lane
Aug 25, 2009 by Katrien from New York,NY

Overall Rating: 7

• Excellent location, no sounds from outside to be heard while at very busy streets.
• Ticking noise from airco woke us up at night, room got hot without airco.

“When in a busy town like London, it is really great to be able to come to a quiet place after a day in the rush. If only they could do sth about the ticking noise that came out of the airco (5th floor room). It woke us up teh first night; We swtched it off but then it got realy hot in the rooms. (weather was exceptionally hot when we were there).”

Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington
Aug 24, 2009 by Ann Caden from Toronto,Canada

Overall Rating: 6

• Good location in the High St. - Kensington area. Good shopping and restaurants in the area. Two minute walk to the Tube.
• Hotel staff was not willing to put in any effort for a request. Beds were small ie. one double or two single per room. Mattresses in beds were lumpy and saggy.

“Good location in an upscale area. Lobby and common areas are attractive. The restaurants and bars are good. The convenience store in the lobby is handy. The cab stand at the end of the driveway is very useful. The theater tickets desk is another handy perk. The actual guest rooms need updating. The bathrooms are really out of date and somewhat moldy. The beds themselves are small i.e. a double or two singles per room. The mattresses are saggy and lumpy and the pillows are virtually flat. The common areas are 4*, the guest rooms are 2*.”

Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington
Aug 22, 2009 by Hussein from Coquitlam,Canada

Overall Rating: 5

• Convenient location, close to tube station.
• Bathroom in terrible condition - circa 1970s.

“Hotel is in desperate need for a rehash. The old plumbing fixtures in the bathroom are scary. I haven't seen separate hot and cold taps in years. The sink was gurgling. When someone next door turned on their water, our tub started to spurt something black. We would never stay at this hotel again.”

“Excellent location and relatively clean room but poor shower and noisy room let it down. If you are staying in London for a short time and are not too fussy this hotel may be suitable.”

Saint Martins Lane
Aug 10, 2009 by Dan from Scottsdale,AZ

Overall Rating: 3

• Bellhops friendly and helpful.
• Over rated - too much flash, no substance.

“This is not a 5 star hotel, and not suitable for the business traveler. Its location is convenient to the theater district, and is suitable for those needing a room for the night. Rooms are small, closets small. Internet connection an extra 19 British Pounds a night. The bar/lounge is positioned as a club, and only opened at 7 PM. Terrible service - no bartender at the bar; waitress went to kitchen bar service for drinks and it took forever. Loud industrial disco music - attempt to be trendy, but just annoying. Maybe okay for the 20 year olds, but to experienced travelers a joke. I would not stay here again, and would not recommend it.”

Aug 1, 2009 by Paula from Palm Desert,CA

Overall Rating: 5

• Great location for Gloucester tube station. Close to grocery store (Wait rose)
• Bad smell in hallway, dirty carpet, noisy room on street side, difficult to work shower.

“The location was great, close to tube station and grocery store. Lovely neighborhoods to explore. Hotel is a bit worn, smelly hallways and dirty carpet. Excellent breakfast with meats, eggs, beans, juice, bread and a variety of hot drinks. Staff was very helpful. Phone line in room did not work so wasn't able to schedule a wake up call. Linen on the bed very nice and bed was comfortable. Price was reasonable but it wasn't a three star hotel.”

Overall Rating: 7

• Hotel was only about 5 mins from Glouster St tube station which was handy. Sainsbury's across the street for snacks.
• They couldn't get us anything big than one queen bed, but they did squeeze a cot in for one child (we have 2).

“It was a nice hotel and the staff was friendly. They didn't have a room ready when we arrived at 1pm and at that out of all the rooms didn't have one with anything bigger than one queen bed. However, 3 hours later they had our room ready and held our bags for us while we waited. It was a nice, clean room.”
