Top Science Museum Hotel Reviews

The Bailey's Hotel London Kensington

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and comfortable. We had all that we needed. The hotel is well located. The staff was qelcoming, friendand very helpful. It is right across from the Tube. So convenient. What we didn't want to walk to, we could grab the Tube for an easy ride. The only thing we didn't like was that they have a workout room but it is only available 8 am to 8 pm. 8 am is too late for a workout."
