Top Design Museum Hotel Reviews

Residence Inn by Marriott London Kensington

10/10 Excellent

"We had the two bedroom suite. It was quite spacious. I didn't utilize the breakfast or bar but the space looked nice and they did have good options. The elevators are quite small and a bit slow but the stairwell is nice and very well lit if you are on a lower floor. The location is nice- right next to Tesco and a 10 minute walk to the train station."

Bob W London Hyde Park

10/10 Excellent

"Overall a great hotel, although bear in mind the 2 small lifts. One of them was out of service in the entire 4 days of my stay, so i feel that could’ve been addressed with more urgency. Otherwise, great room and experience."

Royal Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect stay"

Merit Kensington Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was well stocked and clean, though the carpet was a bit shabby. I requested an iron and it was provided quickly."

The Kensington Hideaway

8/10 Good

"Staff was excellent. Wonderful to have a bar for coffee in the morning or a drink later. Room was large because I had a handicap room. The non handicap were extremely small. Missing were to put toiletries in bathroom."

Millennium Hotel and Conference Centre Gloucester London

8/10 Good

"Nice property in good neighborhood..very safe and walkable to shopping and plenty of food options close by...Staff was courteous and helpful.. Would stay here again."

Brit Hotels Earls Court

8/10 Good

"I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The staff was helpful, the room was clean, and, most importantly, the location was perfect. The hotel is within walking distance of the metro, which takes you to downtown London and its must-see sights in under 30 minutes. It's also close to Filipino shops, which, as a Filipino travelling for work, was an extra plus for me, as I get to enjoy the food."

Miiro Templeton Garden

10/10 Excellent

"Just found this awesome little hotel near Earl's Court. Great location. Beautiful lobby, bar, restaurant ... and large GARDEN patio behind the hotel for lounging . VERY sweet staff. Good sized rooms. Quiet. Rain shower. Comfy bed. Coffee/tea service in the room. They even have WASHCLOTHS!!! My room mini frig was warm ... but okay, no big deal. Will definitely stay again."

Safestay London Kensington Holland Park

10/10 Excellent

"We had a family room (3 beds) for one night. Yes, it’s a hostel, so no, it’s not a plush hotel. But for the cost, the place is great. Fantastic location and friendly staff. 3 comfy beds in a good size room, and an en-suite with a great shower. A TV in the room, which we could use BBC iplayer on fine, and somewhere to get some food if you needed. What’s not to like."
