Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located minutes away from Bayswater station, surrounded by restaurants and grocery stores. The room setup may not be ideal with stairs to another building, but the proximity to amenities adds value to the stay.
The hotel is in a brilliant location for exploring central London, with easy access to parks, sights, and shopping. The rooms are spacious and clean, perfect for families. However, the fan may not be sufficient during the summer heat. The service was friendly and helpful, although there were suggestions to check other websites for specific room information. The dining options were satisfactory, with additional choices available nearby.
The hotel is conveniently located near good restaurants and tube stations, offering a strategic position for Malaysian guests. The rooms were simple yet comfortable, but the constant noise from the buzzing air conditioning was disruptive during the night. The service was lacking in professionalism and forgot to arrange early morning transportation. The dining experience was subpar with limited choices, but the location's proximity to halal restaurants and convenient access to public transportation made up for it.
The hotel's rooms were old/aged, and the shower/bathroom were very small. However, everything was in good order and working well. The room was unreasonably hot and noisy.
The hotel's location is perfect, very centralised near Hyde Park and within a short walk to the nearest tube station. The rooms were quiet and peaceful, but quite tiny and separated from the rest of the apartment. The service was a mix of being quite abrupt during check-in and pleasantly friendly afterward. The dining experience was alright, with only cold breakfast available without paying extra for hot options. The facilities were adequate, but there were some minor issues with the cooler and AC not working properly.
The hotel is in a central location near Hyde Park and close to transportation links, making it convenient for exploring the area. The rooms, although initially not as expected, were eventually adjusted to meet our booking requirements. The service was polite and accommodating in handling our requests. The dining options, while satisfactory, had additional charges for hot breakfast. Overall, our stay was budget-friendly and suitable for our needs.
The hotel's location is perfect, with easy access to central London attractions, and the rooms were spacious and well-equipped. The service was helpful, but could improve on local knowledge. The dining experience was below par, and the facilities need attention.
The hotel was okay, not great and not bad. The rooms were located below ground level, at the far end of a hallway passing service staff and the hotel laundry. The service provided was polite, efficient, and nice. The location was very good and convenient, close to grocery stores and restaurants. The dining experience was too basic with Continental food options. The level of cleaning was great throughout the hotel.
The hotel offers a comfortable stay with friendly staff and a convenient location near shops, transport options, and restaurants. However, the room layout can be a bit cramped for larger groups, and the dining options are limited, with additional costs for certain meals.
The hotel has a great location, close to two underground stations and surrounded by plenty of dining options. While the rooms are spacious, some areas can be challenging to navigate with luggage, leading to discomfort and back/neck pains. The service is prompt and polite, with special arrangements made for specific needs. The dining experience is average with limited options, but the overall value for money is decent.
The hotel is strategically located for Malaysians, with professional staff and convenient access to ethnic restaurants near halal dining and groceries. The rooms were spacious and comfortable for our family, but lacked airflow and air conditioning. Service was pleasant and helpful for exploring London, despite attempts to mask odors. The location, though small and spread out over two floors, offered necessary facilities and easy access to the underground. The dining experience was nice, with room for improvement in offering more variety. Overall, a decent value for the stay.
The hotel was not what we were expecting. While the rooms were big and comfortable, they lacked air conditioning and the hotel tried to charge extra for it. The furniture was cheap, the bed was rock hard, and the decor was average and tired. The tiny TV didn't enhance our experience.
The hotel's location is ideal, close to public transportation and Hyde Park, with a variety of dining options nearby. The rooms, although somewhat confusing in layout, are conveniently located near train stations. The service was accommodating to specific needs, and the facility's location near Halal restaurants was a plus.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were comfortable but had some flaws, the service was polite but not consistently friendly, the location was great but had minor inconveniences, and the dining options were just okay. Overall, it was an average stay with some highlights and drawbacks.
I felt both comfortable and settled in my own space at the end of each busy day. The rooms are definitely not anything like what is advertised, merely adequate for cleanliness, and advertised as up to 6 people. The service was totally non-cooperative, yet they managed to bring it back to my room once it was ready without me having to waste an entire morning. The location is perfect, in walking distance of two Tube stations, very close to the center of London. I used it for breakfast and it was in close proximity to everything I needed to see in London. I found the dining experience OK, only cold breakfast available as part of the buffet inclusions, but you gotta pay extra for any hot breakfast. It was the only thing that stopped my ticking 5 stars.
