Top Natural History Museum Hotel Reviews

The Bailey's Hotel London Kensington

10/10 Excellent

"The Bailey's Hotel London is AMAZING. This was our first trip to London and we have already decided we will NOT stay anywhere else. The location is great, right next to the Gloucester Road tube stop, literally across the street and that matters at the end of the day when you're tired! The grounds and hotel are beautiful and immaculately kept. The staff is so polite and helpful and ready to answer any questions. This hotel feels upscale with the service they provide. The decor is just beautiful and our room was perfect! Bed was both soft and supportive, closet space was great and the view within the inside "courtyard" was nice. The bathroom was a little on the small side and the step up into the tub was a bit ridiculous and quite slippery!! We just felt so good at this hotel. Breakfast was an amazing buffet and the breakfast hall is so posh! We LOVE this hotel. Lift available but if you're feeling brave, there is a beautiful staircase. Many little cafe's and a pub across the street and Chiptole's Mexican Grill if that's your USA thing. Very quite neighborhood. Cannot say enough good about this hotel."

Bob W London Hyde Park

Radisson Blu Hotel, London South Kensington

10/10 Excellent

"I can’t say enough about the amazing staff at the Radisson Blu, South Kensington. They always had smiles and answered my questions. I accidentally left a few items and they kept everything safe until I returned a few days later. This is my second time staying here and it’s the perfect location; across the street from the Glouster Road tube station, Boots Pharmacy and a Waitrose grocery store; it’s also within walking distance of great restaurants and Hyde Park. The next time I’m in London, I will definitely stay here again."

Millennium Hotel and Conference Centre Gloucester London

10/10 Excellent

"Quite, well appointed, great location, many amenities in neighborhood."

Bob W London Kensington

10/10 Excellent

"The room was much bigger than expected. After a few nights in a small apartment in Paris, it was perfect."
