This small hotel is situated on a very busy road and as such even the triple glazed windows do not block out all the noise. The room was described as an 'Executive Room', well that was being kind to say the least. Box-room was more like it. However, the place was very clean and the continental breakfast was pleasant.

This is a stylish hotel squeezed in between restaurants and shops in Kensington. My single room was tiny - almost like a telephone box but packed with stylish designer furnishings. The bathroom was small but sylish. Breakfast was adequate.Situated really well for Museums and Royal Albert Hall

This hotel is conveniently located to the Tube and bus routes which made it a great home base for my five night stay. The hotel is across the street from Kensington Palace and Hyde Park. The single room was small but not smaller than most singles in Europe but it was still hard to find a place to put my... More

We stayed here and had a family room for three. It was actually quite spacious as the extra bed was in an alcove, a little like a separate room. Free wifi. we were on first floor so no problem with stairs. clean rooms and helpful staff.

We stayed here for 3 nights while in London for concerts at the Albert Hall, it was only a ten minute walk to the Albert Hall which is why we picked this hotel but the rooms were tiny!! I think you would be lucky if there was a metre of free space around the beds, there was no room for... More

We stayed in the Seraphine in London overnight. I booked this hotel because it was close to the Victoria theater at which we had tickets to Wicked that night. Its location in London is a bit out of the way but it is very convenient to Notting Hill and lots of shopping, as well as the theater district. My first... More
