Top Science Museum Hotel Reviews

The Ampersand Hotel - Small Luxury Hotels of the World

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at The Ampersand Hotel in London was absolutely wonderful! My husband, Mark, and I were celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary, and the entire team went above and beyond to make our stay extra special. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The service was exceptional from start to finish. The staff truly bent over backwards to accommodate our needs and make us feel welcomed and cared for. A special thank-you to Christian, who was simply outstanding! He went the extra mile to help us with coffee shop recommendations and even assisted us with our postage needs. His kindness, thoughtfulness, and willingness to help with both big and small details made such a lasting impression on us. It’s the personal touches and genuine hospitality that make a hotel truly memorable, and The Ampersand exceeded our expectations in every way. We felt genuinely valued as guests, and their efforts helped make our anniversary celebration even more meaningful. We would wholeheartedly recommend The Ampersand Hotel to anyone visiting London. If you’re looking for a beautiful hotel with an exceptional team that genuinely cares about its guests, look no further! Thank you, The Ampersand, for helping make our 40th anniversary trip so memorable. We would love to stay with you again! ❤️"

Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington

8/10 Good

"the location is excellent. Would have preferred to have a coffee machine instead of a pot. Breakfast was good. The rooms need a bit of uplifting, especially on the AC front...The hot water was rarely hot, just acceptable. Nevertheless the staff was lovely. Truly. Helpful and lovely. Th elocation was excellent too. I will stay there again."

Royal Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A Wonderful Stay at The Royal Garden Hotel, London The Royal Garden Hotel right next to Kensington Gardens and Kensington Palace, and within easy reach of Hyde Park. The hotel is very conveniently located, just a five-minute walk from High Street Kensington Station. It is also not far from central London, and the No. 9 bus stop right outside the hotel, providing a direct and convenient connection to the city centre. Our room was clean, beautifully presented and very comfortable. The bed linen and duvet were lovely, and we slept very well every night. The hotel’s Western-style buffet offered a wide variety of delicious food. All the staff were warm, friendly and helpful. We would especially like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Ryan and Frenco at the front desk. When they learned that I needed to print a contract in Chinese, they immediately went out of their way to help me, without any hesitation. We are truly grateful for their kindness and thoughtfulness. We wish them both happiness, good health and every success in life. We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to another member of the front desk team, a tall, slim lady with curly hair, whose name I unfortunately forgot to ask. We greatly appreciate her kind assistance during our stay. We absolutely loved this hotel. We stayed for 12 days, and our experience left us with many wonderful memories. If we visit London again, we will definitely choose The Royal Garden Hotel once more!"

The Queen's Gate Hotel

"This hotel is a classic boutique property with an unbeatable location near major cultural landmarks, warm service, and great breakfast.I loved the ammenities and the staff were stellar."

The Gore London – Starhotels Collezione

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely delightful 19th century style English hotel with period decoration in the rooms and excellent amenities. Comfortable robes, lovely soaps and shampoo, clothing steamer, refrigerator, tea pot, and - much welcome - a US style outlet in the bedroom alongside the UK outlets, which allowed me to use my hair curler which would not function even with my adapter in the UK outlet. The staff was lovely, and the breakfast was outstanding. Big, generous and tasty full English with endless pots of tea! The location can't be beat: within walking distance of one top level museum after another. I can't say enough good things about this hotel."

The Rembrandt

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I stayed at the Rembrandt for 11 nights while visiting London and vicinity. Our room was large, spotless and nicely updated. The room faced the street but was exceptionally quiet. Bed was very comfortable. English breakfast provided enough options to satisfy. We found the staff to be professional, friendly and helpful. Very close to museums, a variety of restaurants and an easy walk to the tube. We would not hesitate to stay here again."

Princes Gardens

8/10 Good

"The room is clean and big. However the toilet flush was not working properly but they tried to fix it but can't be done straightaway. Staff are very helpful. There was a lot of food choices during breakfast but I am not really a breakfast person. So I just enjoy having coffee and bread and fresh fruits. Love the swimming pool. Location wise I personally .chose to stay here for some appointments that I have around this area"
