Top Royal Albert Hall Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn London - Kensington High St. by IHG

Holiday Inn London - Kensington High St. by IHG

8/10 Good
"I had a single room which was quite small but reasonable for a London Hotel in the centre of Kensington. There was a bath in the en-suite bathroom as well as shower. There is the added bonus of a large swimming pool and sauna. Sadly the jacuzzi was out of order but the pool is wonderful. My room had fridge, (useful as generally food is expensive) a good hairdryer, iron and ironing board, as well as plenty of cupboard space. TV channels are limited and there is precious little radio e.g.classic fm, or radio 3 or 4. There's pop music and not much else. This may change! I'd recommend and will return again."

"The room was clean and comfortable. We had all that we needed. The hotel is well located. The staff was qelcoming, friendand very helpful. It is right across from the Tube. So convenient. What we didn't want to walk to, we could grab the Tube for an easy ride. The only thing we didn't like was that they have a workout room but it is only available 8 am to 8 pm. 8 am is too late for a workout."
