Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located in the heart of Knightsbridge, perfect for exploring the nearby attractions and shopping options. The rooms are beautifully decorated with spacious bathrooms, though lacking an ironing board and iron. The service was attentive and helpful, particularly during breakfast. Dining was good overall, with minor issues in the quality of some dishes. The hotel facilities are well-maintained and offer a comfortable stay.
I truly enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The rooms were beautifully appointed, making it a nice place to chat with someone or enjoy a cup of tea. However, the air conditioning control in the room was not working, and our room was next to the lift, which was a bit inconvenient. The service was exceptional with friendly and attentive staff members. The location was perfect for exploring Hyde Park and Oxford Street, although it felt a bit small with limited seating options. The dining experience offered delicious meals, though some items were missing at times. Overall, the facilities were great, providing everything needed for a comfortable stay.
I had an amazing time at the hotel! The rooms felt tiny but in a wonderful way, and everything was tastefully done. However, having breakfast in the compact room was a bit awkward.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms could have been a bit bigger, but they were bright, getting the morning sunshine which was a nice touch. Although my room was on the smaller side, priced at approximately £325 per night room only, the cozy atmosphere made up for it. The service was exceptional, especially with the staff going out of their way to accommodate my 85-year-old father and providing excellent recommendations for our evening plans. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of Knightsbridge near Harrods and Hyde Park, making it extremely convenient for exploring the area. Although the dining experience had its ups and downs, with some delightful treats and disappointments in the cooking, the overall atmosphere made up for it.
I can't say I wasn't pleased at all with my stay! The hotel's location is a winner – just a stroll away from Hyde Park and Oxford Street, making it perfect for shopping and dining. The rooms were lovely but a bit compact, making breakfast in-room a bit awkward, even though the delicious strawberries dipped in dark chocolate were a sweet touch. The service was top-notch – from the warm welcome champagne for Genius booking members to the quirky and interesting decor, everything was just delightful.
Staying at the hotel was a delightful experience overall. The rooms were a bit small and one was even tinier than the other despite being the same price. However, the highlight was definitely the delicious strawberries dipped in dark chocolate. The service was warm and friendly, with a few hiccups in breakfast service. The location was perfect, close to major attractions and yet nestled in a quiet residential street. The dining options were good, with some inconsistencies, and the facilities were satisfactory.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and beautifully decorated, although some areas need updating. The service was exceptional with helpful and polite staff, ensuring a cozy, home-away-from-home ambiance. The location was great, with easy access to most places walking or by Tube, but a bit uncomfortable to walk back from restaurants at night alone. The dining experience was really good, though service could be a bit slow at times.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were luxurious and comfortable, I felt a bit disappointed by the dining options. The service, especially for my elderly father, was exceptional. The location, just a stone's throw from Harrods, was perfect, but some facilities fell short of expectations.
