Thanks for a pleasant stay at your hotel!

Had a great stay at the Seraphine Kensington Olympia Hotel in October. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They do a nice little breakfast each morning for getting coffee/tea, juice, and toast/fruits. The location is very convenient for using the metro system or even walking many places.

Exactly what we needed

We had 1 night in London to see a performance in Royal Albert Hall, we needed a triple room which isn't easy to find in London. This hotel provided that plus is on a bus route direct to Albert Hall so was perfect for our needs. The room was comfortable and functional, breakfast was decent, staff were excellent.

Very friendly and helpful staff. The room was really hot and the windows can’t be opened so it was a bit of an uncomfortable nights sleep. Despite that the room was a nice size and had everything I needed for my stay. I would visit again as it is perfectly situated for shops, restaurants and Holland Park.

Pro’s: Good value for money. Good shower. In a nice part of town. Mostly clean. Air conditioning certainly worked well during a hot day. Con’s: Moths and fly’s in the room. Confusing entrance with a very slow moving lift!!! Room was too small to be comfortable. We were given the opportunity to make a bid to upgrade our room- however the room that we would have upgraded to was a single bed and smaller. Strange clicking noise coming from the air con. No iron in the room. Dead insects squished against the wall. All in all, a perfectly ok place to get your head down. But don’t be expecting anything else.
