The Pelham London - Starhotels Collezione

London|0.31km from Victoria and Albert Museum
The advantage is that it is close to the subway station and basically across the road from the station. The room is small and it is acceptable considering the location. But the facilities are average, the hair dryer is bad, the bottle of bath liquid cannot be opened, I have to run two times at the front desk to deal with this. When I left, the front desk asked me if I wanted to give a tip for 9.8 pounds. The first time I was tipped by the front desk of the hotel, I was embarrassed and gave it in person. But I was very uncomfortable, because the room rate should include service, why tip? I used to stay in the store, and I tipped the bellman at most, never asked for it at the front desk. I also repeatedly charged the room fee and found it by me. They said that they did not receive the room fee given by the platform. How can I have my check-in information if I don't receive the room fee? Fortunately, after contacting Trip.com, Trip.com refunded me the prepaid room rate. But everyone must be careful.

London|0.32km from Victoria and Albert Museum
Wonderful hotel! Now on our permanent list for future visits. Had a last minute flight cancel and had to spend an overnight in London. We had been coming off a long guided trip and wanted a cozy and convenient place for our unexpected (bonus) overnight. Booked room only hours before arrival based on a friend’s rec who had only heard about hotel. The staff (notably Benjamin) could not have made us feel more welcome and as if we had just arrived home. Hotel was cozy and charming. Relaxing welcome beverage (tea or champagne) in sitting room off reception. Also enjoyed ‘house special’ Martini in bar that evening accompanied by great complimentary nibbles. King bed room was perfect for us and sized as expected - 2nd floor back in a separate foyer from main hallway - not huge, but great space and good sized bath for 2 people. Welcome treats & personal hospitality note in our room. (Again, they only had few hours notice aware of our arrival). Turn down service with slippers provided. Wonderful location for our preferences and easy walk to SoKen tube. Highly recommend.

My family and I came to a Europe for a vacation that started in London. Since the minute we entered the whole staff was super nice, professional, and very helpful. Anything we asked for was taken very seriously and they provided us with everything we need and more. This feels like a home. In the morning, Elana and Loulou were very welcoming and made us feel like we were home. The food was amazing and they always came to check on us to see if we needed more things. They also suggested great places to visit around the area. The manager was a very nice lady. She came to us and greeted us very nicely the minute we came. I highly recommend this place to everyone. Besides having clean rooms, and great breakfast it is located in a very nice area. You can walk around and have everything around you. Again thank you Elana and Loulou!!

The Ritz London

London|2.41km from Victoria and Albert Museum
Truly an experience. My wife and I brought my mom to London for her 80th birthday, as afternoon tea at The Ritz was still on her bucket list. She had no idea I booked our stay there as well, and the Rolls Royce pickup from the airport. The hotel itself is what you expect, the Luis XVI style common areas and rooms are beautiful, but what really makes the place memorable, are the people. From our first contact with Johan, and our check in with Giacomo, Gavin, Roberto everyone was fantastic throughout our stay. The amount of time that the folks at reception are willing to spend just chatting and sharing stories with you is something you just don't find elsewhere. Many thoughtful interactions with my mom as the whole place seemed to know her big birthday was coming up. It was the experience of a lifetime. Thank you everyone at the Ritz for making it happen.

The Dilly

The Dilly

Mayfair London|2.86km from Victoria and Albert Museum
The Dilly was probably amazing in the 1980's and 1990's but not much has been updated since then! We stayed in a Dilly Classic room which was perfectly fine, a good size, clean with strong Wifi. The shower was powerful and there was plenty of hot water. I know some people on this site weren't impressed by the breakfast but I thought it was great. Obviously, the location is fabulous. However, I didn't feel the room was up to five-star standard. The coffee was instant and the milk small UHT cartons. There was no fridge or mini-bar (though we were in the 'cheapest' room so may be different elsewhere). The toiletries were cheap and basic (so bring your own), there was no plug by the bed to charge devices overnight and no Blu-tooth speaker which seems to be a given now in higher-end hotels. The style of the room itself was quite dated including the landline next to the toilet which I'm sure was incredibly cool in 1986 :) Overall, if this was a three-or-four-star hotel I'd give it full marks, but as it's a five-star, (and more importantly charging five-star prices), it's lacking in some areas. I believe the hotel is currently 'between owners' which makes sense, as I guess the current owners don't want to invest and are ticking along until the new ones take over. It's not dreadful by any means, but they charge a lot for what you get.

Lovely hotel in a prime location. Felt very safe. Breakfast buffet was included with room price. Everything you could want. The best croissants (are we in France?!), eggs, breakfast potatoes, yogurt, fruit, cheese, deli meats, bacon (like ham, not American bacon), juices, tea, coffee, toast. Also some items that are British beans and such. Several blocks to the Underground South Kensington station. Across the street from the V & A museum. Short walk to Harrolds, a must see! Amazing food hall, tea shops, chocolates and gems! Nice bar off the lobby with sofas and comfy chairs. Wine was reasonable price, 7 pounds. Two free drinks for booking room directly with hotel. Executive twin room was small, but adequate. Two chairs a table and a desk with chair, Robes, free bottle of water in mini-fridge daily. Nice view of the V & A museum from two large windows, that open. AC in room. Great shower!

Gainsborough Hotel

Gainsborough Hotel

London|0.41km from Victoria and Albert Museum
My office booked a room, most probably, through Expedia. The voucher generated thusly was handed to me by my office travel agent mentioned a single room with a twin bed. Upon check-in, I got half a room under the staircase with a half bed (even kids have bigger bed than that) that was made of cheap compressed wood, the stuff Ikea puts in its flatpack. The cupboard wobbled as one opened the door and there was barely space to move. The lift to the floor did not generate the impression, it would get you there safely. The bathroom sink could not be used because it was so slim, it barely jutted out of the wall. Hair on the towels and bed were included free in my room. The hotel is apparently refurbished and yet has stained carpets, as well as, mysterious stains on the bed, table, etc. The breakfast in their partner hotel located just across is not worth booking - the food choice is pedestrian and you can get quality breakfast well within the price at any food place in London. When I called the receptionist (Stefanie/Stephanie) today (24.06.2022 at 14:44), i.e. one day after checking out to find out why this discrepancy between my office booking and the offered room happened, she started screaming at me and said, I was speaking nonsense. After quite a few rounds of try to gently speak to her, I gave up and asked for her manager. She said Manager is not here and kept on shouting. I hung up, not able to believe that this is the behaviour of a travel and hospitality industry rep. Wow!

54 Queen's Gate Hotel

London|0.51km from Victoria and Albert Museum
I travelled with my daughter to London all the way from New Zealand for a combined work and holiday trip. It was her first time in London, and I wanted this trip to be something she would remember. I spent a lot of time looking for a good hotel in Kensington and I picked 54 Queens Gate, due to its convenient location for my conference and the good reviews and high rating in Tripadvisor and Booking.com. On the positives, I will list the extremely good and convenient location, the tasteful décor in the lounge and rooms and some of the staff, being polite and helpful. Otherwise, our stay did not confirm the high ratings for this hotel, which create high expectations, unfortunately not met. I had booked a ”double deluxe” room, which came at a price higher than the standard. Initially, we were given a tiny room on one of the upper floors (Room 20) for which you had to go up two different lifts and a few stairs. The room was not what was shown in the photos as a double deluxe (although they tried to tell me that it was in this category). It was also very hot, and the air conditioning was not working properly and was too noisy. It was impossible to stay there for 6 nights, so we immediately said we were disappointed. Luckily, they had a bigger room available in the lower ground floor (basement?), Room 2, which we happily took. The room was relatively clean, but the floor was not, and I had to specifically ask them to vacuum the floor. Later we discovered that a terrible sewer smell was coming from the drains, and the ventilation in the bathroom was not enough to improve the situation, luckily there was a patio door we could open for airing the room. The toiletries offered, although good quality, they were in very limited quantity, hardly enough for one person. Some of the staff were stressed, unaccommodating and grumpy. Breakfast was basic. After the second day we decided to have breakfast in the room, and we were served by an annoyed lady who seemed to hate us for ordering in the room (although this is advertised in the services, also note they don’t serve cooked breakfast in the rooms). On the last night, I made the mistake to ask reception to book a taxi for me. They told me to book an uber, and when I said that I don’t have an uber account, the person at the reception said they would have to ask their manager in order to book a taxi for me. On our check out they asked us how our stay was. I gave them honest and direct feedback, on which the manager responded aggressively, trying to blame everything on us (e.g., for asking for a taxi). They said no one else had complained about the smell from the sewers before, while I read similar reports from other customers on Booking.com and tried to blame us, for not reporting it earlier, supposedly they would have fixed it. I expect that they will try to respond in a similar manner to my review. I advise the traveler to take my review seriously and either lower their expectations or make an alternative choice f

Very warm hotel service absolutely pass. Hygiene is ok, but the room is small, and the elevator has to wait a long time to get up and down, so we take the stairs all the way and it is not very tired. Good location and convenient for shopping. Harrods is here on foot. Breakfast was delivered to the room.
