Nice place but pack light!
We were only there one night and the location was great and the staff friendly and helpful. The bed was very comfortable and they had a two for one happy hour which was nice. My only negatives were the room was really tight if you have any amount of luggage and the bathroom had horrible lighting above the sink and mirror.

Wonderful stay, the staff were all very friendly. The trash city suite is amazing and offers great opportunities to send confusing pictures to friends who can be convinced you are sleeping in the street. Room was kept very clean and well stocked with tea, coffee, biscuits, water and crisps. Great location easy to get to the museums, Royal Alber Hall, Harrods etc. Definitely will go back again.

Great value for money in South Kensington. Quirky rooms (e.g, no bedside lights) detract from an otherwise nice hotel.

Overall very nice
fab boutique hotel with funky touches. Overall great; two comments though... I don't understand why there's no minibar in the room...that would be great and in keeping with the vibe; also some of the Squint Suite I was in could do with some maintenance - eg the entrance door frame to the terrace is looking a bit worse for wear

It's OK but not great
There was an odd smell in the room ( perhaps damp?) - we reported this on checkout. The cleaning staff had left a clump of hair attached to the carpet - I'm not petty, I put in in the bin, but it was not a good start. The evening receptionist was playing his own music quire loudly when we were trying to enjoy an evening drink - this was with the piped music going as well ! The set up of the room was a bit cramped

Great Location Small Room
This hotel was a perfect location-only 2 blocks from the Soth Lexington Underground Station and near 3 museums and many excellent restaurants. All the staff was very friendly. I knew hotel rooms in London were small but the room I had on the cruise ship I arrived on was 2 times the size of this room. Essentially the king bed and a bathroom that strangely was very big. Could have use 1/2 the bathroom for additional room space. There is a closet but no dressers of any kind to unpack your clothes

Clean, Comfortable, Friendly/helpful Staff
The rooms are not huge, but are both clean and comfortable. The hotel is in a great location, and the staff are warm, welcoming and very helpful. The fact that this is stay number 12 at this place probably gives a good idea of how I feel about it.
