Indulge yourself and be rewarded
Pros:

This gem is located perfectly for tourism. Steps to South Kensington or just alongside a bus stop and taxi line. The linens and bed were so comfortable. Restaurant provided hearty and lovely food at all hours. Front desk personnel, especially Jerry, were always willing to assist and provide local knowledge to our benefit.

Cons:

Everyone’s top notch.

Beautiful hotel, perfect location close to the tube station, Apero restaurant superb!
Pros:

My lovely room was on the main floor looking out onto the street which meant that I had to keep the drapes pulled. I like a bright room with a view so this was not ideal.

Cons:

My room and bathroom were beautifully appointed but small, would have liked more space.
