Ideal location for a London mini break
Our 2 night stay was perfect. Lovely room on 6th floor . Spotlessly clean . Overlooking Kensington Gardens with The Shard, London Eye , BT Tower and The City buildings in the distance. Large room with both bath and powerful shower in bathroom . Kettle and hot drinks machine . Plenty of choices of food and drinks for breakfast but no sausages for some reason. Three fast lifts to use. Large smart TV . Plenty of storage for clothes. Bath robes provided. Less than 5 mins walk to Queensway and Bayswater underground stations where there are plenty of shops and places to eat. Paddington is abouf 15 mins walk away. Bikes can be hired at the entrance to the park. All in all a great location for a base for a mini break in London. Quiet hotel considering how full it was . Reception is on first floor. Little Waitrose and petrol Station is on ground level at the front of hotel.
