The Kensington Close Hotel & Health Spa - London

Stayed in a single room. Small but comfortable and very clean. Staff couldn't have been more pleasant and helpful. Handy for the tube. Far better alternative than other budget chains in London.

Big hotel with pool. Convenient location

The hotel is very conveniently located just around the corner from Kensington High Street Tube station, and not bad value for money. However, I thought the room was 'jaded' and the service for a snack meal in the evening at their Lion Sports Bar left a lot to be desired.

nice hotel in a great location. really close to the underground and shops on high st kensington. room rate was great for the area. pool was a bit disappointing and drinks in the hotel bar were very expensive- £13 for two drinks including a £1.50 service chven though we got the drinks at the bar.

I hated this hotel. I booked it for my boyfriends birthday as we were going to the Albert Hall that night. The standard double room was so small. The bed was pushed up against the window, and you could only get in from one side. I could hear everything the person next door was up to, including their shower at half 6 in the morning ( i thought it was my boyfriend, and had to check he was still there), then them being sick an hour later. Check out is at 11am, but we were woken up at 8.45 by the house keeper letting herself in to clean the room. The room had a marked mirror and a dirty desk. I would not recommend this hotel at all. Horrible stay. Wish I hadn;t bothered.

Hotel room was OK, small and dated, but fairly clean and location superb. There was however a lot of disturbance in the evening and early night. Seems to be a popular Hotel for young people going out in London. Overall: acceptable for the price you pay.

My wife and I have used this hotel over many years for short business and leisure visits. It's location is ideal for Kensington High St., tube station and all the SW attractions. ALbert Hall and Hyde Park are an easy walking distance. OK the standard rooms are a bit small but fine for a short stay. Breakfast is OK, and there are many restuarants nearby for dinner. There is a superb pool with steam room and saunas at £5 a time.

This hotel is located close to High Street Kensington tube and certainly within walking distance. It is wise to book breakfast at the same time as the room as the rates appear significantly cheaper and well worth while. Excellent b'fast variety.

We got up graded to an executive suite, well I would hate to see what a normal room looks like if ours was a executive. It was very very basic, there was nothing extra to make it better. You have to pay to use to the pool which should be made clear when booking a room! So when asking if it has pool facilities they should say no!

Not a bad hotel for the money. It was clean and tidy, although the rooms were a little on the small size. Certainly more than adequate for a week-end break. The hotel was in a good location and was only a 2 mintue walk from the tube station. I would certainly chose this hotel again. The only criticism I would make about the hotel was the price of the drinks. £5 for a shot of Brandy, is a typical price you will have to pay.
