Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I loved staying at Gainsborough Hotel. As a soli traveller who is 140lbs(63kg), the shower was still tough but at least I had my own restroom. It was very quiet and I enjoyed staying. If someone is big (70kg or higher), then it will be very hard to take a shower. Other than shower, everything was perfect. I felt very comfortable while staying

Shower very small, I’m an average size person but no movement room! This wouldn’t put me off booking for October as near to Kensington Gardens.

The location is great. The staff are amazing. Truly amazing. The only thing I would say is that the facilities are in shaky condition. We blew a couple of fuses and the ac had to be fixed twice while we were there. Also, the elevator was so tiny and scary that we did not use it. So we climbed 4 stories every time we went to the room. But I would stay there again in a minute.

Efficient, polite check in. Made special request for no air freshener (essential at this hotel as they lay it on THICK) which was well accommodated. Small room but good for the price.
