Got a good price on the rooms, and the location was ideal - a quiet area a short distance from the Tube. The rooms were fine, especially for the price. more

We arrived in London on Monday afternoon, and got the tube to Kennsington High street which is really close to the hotel and the directions to the hotel from their web site are spot on. We arrived to the hotel at 1pm. The girl at reception told us we couldn't check in until 3 pm but if we paid £20... more

We stayed at the Copthorne Tara for three nights leisure break. We booked room only on an offer from Last Minute.com. When we arrived we were given vouchers from the Hotel reception for breafast at £10 each which just about made it worth having value wise. The breakfast was ok (nothing special) but the buffet style allowed you to fill... more

My friend and I spent 9 nights at the Copthorne Tara. Overall the experience was very pleasant. We had a clean room, that while a little dated was comfortable and met all our needs for our stay. My disappointments were few, the first was upon check-in at around noon I was told I could have my room for an addition... more

We stayed at the Copthorne Tara. The rooms were old and dated. The staff was rude and could hardly speak english. The only plus was that it was relatively clean and moderately priced. It was just not 4 star accommodations. more

We stayed here for four nights after booking with Priceline. We got a very good deal. At first I was disappointed that the hotel looked liked a 1960's school of architecture rejected project. Still inside was clean, comfortable, quiet. The best thing is the fabulous location close to Kensington high street and the park. The underground is a short walk... more

Stayed in a standard double room on the first floor. Spacious with a little table and chairs. Yes, it overlooked the train tracks, but I didn't hear a thing, and I was listening for train noise (based on other reviews). Yes, the bathroom is a little elderly and has English plumbing, but hey, it is England. The hotel is central,... more

I checked into this hotel as I was attending a corporate dinner nearby. Unfortunately, the hotel was exceptionally disappointing. I arrived at the hotel and was impressed by the lobby which was spacious. I then went to check in and was greeted by a slovenly girl slouched on a swivel chair who was sharp, snappy and unwelcoming. I was directed... more
