Dreadful seevice
Room was fine and bed comfy. My issue was that I booked this for after an event I was at and therefore didn’t arrive until 3.30am. A key reason why I chose this hotel was the advertised 24/7 reception desk. The staff on the desk were quite rude and informed me that they had marked my reservation as a no show and they may not be able to give me a room. I had paid in full. They didn’t apologise for this but told me to wait for around 15mins whilst they worked out if they could. I genuinely believe they would have sent me away however I expressed frustration and annoyance which then made them ask me to wait whilst they chatted to decide if they would help me. As a woman on her own I found the whole thing unbelievable uncomfortable and was made to feel like I had done something wrong. Would never stay again and would strongly recommend not staying as a solo traveller.

Lovely room. Bonus of a kitchenette, especially when traveling as a family. Tube just round the corner and on the Piccadilly line - what’s not to like? We enjoyed our stay here.

Lovely stay at the Resident Kensington
We had a lovely overnight stay at the Resident Kensington for a 60th Birthday and Anniversary. The staff were so polite and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. Our Room was spotless and extremely comfortable. Great location for the tube and in walking distance to Kensington High street. Would highly recommend this lovely Hotel for a stay in London.

Would Definitely Stay Again…!
Great location in the west side of central London, one block from the Earls Court Tube. Plus several great restaurants right in the immediate vicinity. Hotel staff are super friendly, helpful with any questions, and even serve wine nightly at 6pm. The room was super clean with a mini kitchen for convenience (great for happy hour snacks). The shower was awesome! Definitely recommend…

Nice enough hotel with appreciated wine bottle at check in. Room floor could use some cleaning and the room is especially small, even for Europe. Very walkable and the tube stop is fantastic. Very convenient for getting to/from Heathrow.
