The hotel offered great value for money with its affordable rates. The location was a key highlight, as it was conveniently located just around the corner from the tube station and museums. This made it easy to explore the city and visit popular attractions. Additionally, the area was quiet despite being close to busy streets, allowing for a peaceful stay.
Although the hotel had its positives, there were a few downsides to my experience. The breakfast was not to my taste, as I didn't enjoy the British-style filter coffee.

The Villa Kensington provided excellent value for money with a nice room and convenient location just a short walk from the Gloucester Street tube station. The staff were friendly and helpful, making our stay enjoyable. Additionally, the option to upgrade to a full English breakfast was a tempting choice. I would recommend this hotel for its great value and convenient location.

We had a delightful stay at Villa Kensington. The location was incredibly convenient, just a short walk to the Gloucester tube station. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and spotlessly clean. The AC worked perfectly, ensuring a cozy atmosphere even on chilly nights. The breakfast offered a good variety of options, including ham, cheese, eggs, and croissants. The staff in the restaurant were friendly and accommodating. we felt welcomed and at home during our stay.
The curtains in our room had some unsightly stains, and the WiFi did not reach our room, although we had specifically requested it. Additionally, the walls were a bit thin, allowing noise from neighboring rooms to be heard.

This hotel provides great value for money, especially considering the prime location in a very nice area. Situated on a quiet road, it's still conveniently close to Gloucester Road underground station. The staff here is friendly and attentive, always ready to assist with any needs. The basic amenities are well-maintained, and the rooms are equipped with A/C, ensuring a comfortable stay. I also appreciated the option to leave luggage after checkout, making exploring the city hassle-free. The breakfast offered here is well above average for a "continental" style, with a good variety of options including coffee.
All in all, everything was more than satisfactory.

We had a fantastic stay at a hotel in this city. The location was excellent, being very close to the underground station. It was just a 5-minute walk to GloucesterRd tube station, making it easy for us to explore the city. The hotel itself was pleasant and clean, with a modern feel. The room, although small, was comfortable and had a big wardrobe and a heating device. The staff at the hotel were very helpful and friendly, ensuring that our check-in experience was excellent.
No issues.

Excellent location, close to the tube, bus stops, and a 24/7 mini supermarket. Helpful and kind staff offered early check-in and storage for our bags. Clean and surprisingly spacious room with comfortable beds. Nice shower with great water pressure. Reliable and quick wifi.

The hotel is conveniently located near Gloucester tube station, making it easy to access public transportation. It is also close to a stop on the open top tourist bus, allowing you to explore the city with ease.
The rooms are small and the furniture is dated and worn, which may not meet your expectations for a comfortable stay.

This makes it really convenient to explore the city and easily get to and from Heathrow Airport. There are also many bars nearby, providing plenty of options for dining and entertainment. Plus, the rooms have high ceilings and great showers with good water pressure.
There is a small gap under the doors, which allows noise from the hallways to enter.

The hotel is situated in a very convenient area, just a short walk from the Gloucester Road underground station. It is located on a quiet road in a very nice area, making it a perfect base for exploring South Kensington. The rooms are clean and the beds are very comfortable. The breakfast, included in the rate, is well above average for a continental offering, with a decent variety of options, including coffee.
The noise issue mentioned in some reviews was not experienced.
