The KPH is good for a 1-2 night stay only, IMO. My partner and I booked for 6 nights and ended up moving rooms 3 times trying to get a better room because the first room was in the basement, which we didn't like. Positives: staff are very nice, friendly, and accommodating; very clean; nicely appointed interiors; comfortable beds with decent bed linens; lots of hot water and good water pressure; in-house breakfast was fine in a day-lit basement level dining room adjacent to the back garden; great walkable neighborhood close to shops and transit. Negatives: biggest dislike are the shower stalls; 2 bathrooms had shower curtains and 1 did not; the shower curtains end about 6-8 inches above the floor and there is no barrier to contain the shower water, so it floods the tiled bathroom floor, unless you construct a barrier out of multiple towels. The light switches are difficult to use and don't work consistently. Booked a "Deluxe Room, 1 King Bed", but did not feel I got what I paid for until we moved to the 3rd room, which was on the ground level (first level in U.S.). Watch out for being shoved in the basement!

Superb. Thoroughly recommend
Super impressed with the KPH. I’m in London weekly for work and move about quite often. This is most certainly up there with value for money and friendliness of staff. Notably, I witnessed on several occasions staff members out on the front entrance and pavement regularly cleaning and tending to litter removal. You don’t see that v often. The room was v quiet as only 2 rooms per sub-corridor - great! The only downside was being unable to activate WiFi during my stay - potentially my devices but I was unfortunately unable to use WiFi for work meetings. I would however return. Lovely peaceful location, great staff and overall a v good product offering. Thanks team KPH.

Two days in London
The hotel was a nice place. The only complaint we had was we didn’t have a shower curtain and the bathroom was soaked after each shower. We talked to the front desk and he said he would take care of it but we didn’t see a change while we were there.

Perfect location if attending Olympia events
A lovely hotel, perfect location if attending Olympia events.Modern and spotlessly clean, helpful staff. Breakfast was good . Unfortunately the TV wasnt working properly and i could only get Ch4, no sound or signal on other channels, this was disappointing for me as i as looking forward to settling down to watch TV in peace in the evening. I ordered food to be delivered in via the App provided, it took 80mins to arrive an was cold ( i ordered chicken burger and chips) hotel staff heated it up for me in their microwave. I would stay here again, staff are friendly and helpful
