Many rooms are large and well finished with comfortable beds and traditional decor. Very nice location across from Kensington Gardens, and a short taxi ride (or long stroll) from some action - restaurants,bars etc. Generally rates are kept competitive, but anything around £100 a double room is usually reasonable value (doesnt include breakfast). Some nice Junior Suites and Apartments aswell.
