Top Design Museum Hotel Reviews

Bob W London Hyde Park

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the location. Just a few minutes walk to Paddington, Bayswater, and Queensway train / tube stations. Very clean and nice surrounding area with an amazing range of pubs and restaurants, in various price ranges. Fast food to very high-end eateries. The hotel is very clean and nice, but very typical in size for Europe / UK. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Close to many of the sites most people visit, palaces, Hyde park, Harrods’ etc. absolutely, recommend staying here."

Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, less than a five minute walk from the subway station. Hotel is old, but well maintained and clean. Staff was very helpful throughout our visit"

Royal Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, best location"

Heeton Concept Hotel Kensington

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel and staff are absolutely great. Great location. If you are looking for something plush with all the extras, this hotel is not for you. It is clean the beds are comfortable. But, the hotel amenities themselves are bare minimum. The rooms are small. We had three adult women in the family room and it was tiny. Barely room for all of our suitcases. There was a double bed and bunk beds. No dresser to put clothes in if you wanted to unpack. Located down the street from the Earls Court underground, which was great to get around the city. We all agreed we definitely would stay there again!!"

Ember Locke Kensington

Millennium Hotel and Conference Centre Gloucester London

8/10 Good

"Lovely hotel. Well positioned. Amazing staff. Comfy bed. Appreciated bottled water in my room. Excellent toiletries. Good breakfast. I would have liked to have had a separate bin for recyclables. I would also have preferred a walk-in shower rather than a dangerous shower above a large and deep bath."
