Two night stay with friends near St Pauls
Pros:

This is a lovely place to stay and this is our 6th time (at least). The welcome was good at reception. The rooms were clean and perfect for a two night stay with friends in a great location. The temperature in the apartment was very high and the heating impossible to reduce. Paradoxically the shower was too cold (I think the shower head needs descaling). There were a few kitchen items which would have been helpful (scissors, large bowl) I should have told the staff all these points but forgot. Apart from that I recommend this as a place to stay despite the room price having escalated this year.

Perfect location
Pros:

Absolutely perfect location, tucked on a quiet street three minutes from Saint Paul’s Cathedral
Having a restaurant on site was perfect for breakfast. Loved the two bedroom two bathroom apartment truly appreciated room to spread out at a affordable cost. Front desk was timely when there was an issue with sink drains. Will definitely stay here again next time in London.

great location; very comfortable
Pros:

Our fundamental criteria: apartment hotels with king beds which limit choice. For many years when visiting London, we used to stay in the Kensington / Knightsbridge area. About a decade ago we started staying in Mayfair, near the shepherds market area. This year due to a lack of availability we reluctantly had to stay in the City Area at Native kings Wardrobe.

No longer reluctant, it is now our first choice. Spacious and comfortable apartments. But more importantly as a tourist; well-located with close access to two tube stations, a couple of small supermarkets and plenty of restaurants. Also, easy walking distance to many tourist attractions.

Native Kings Wardrobe: an excellent choice!
Pros:

I always stay at Native Kings Wardrobe when visiting London. Andrea, the Operations Manager, and her team make me feel very welcome the moment I arrive. It is very well located with good restaurants in close proximity and getting to and from Kings Wardrobe is easy by tube. Counter Cafe bar and Courtyard, owned by Native Places, attached to Kings Wardrobe is excellent for breakfast, and lunch. And they make great cocktails, too!

A warm and personal experience - superb place to stay!
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Native Kings Wardrobe - we were a family group of five adults celebrating my dad’s 80th birthday. Our 3 bed apartment was spacious, warm, well appointed and had a lovely roof top balcony with a view of the London eye. The staff could not be more helpful and responsive to everything we asked and the breakfast was superb. We loved the location near St Paul’s which was safe and quiet at night yet everything we needed was nearby or accessible. We all agreed this hotel stay was superb. For some examples - a taxi called by the hotel for us to get to the west end cancelled last minute and the duty manager walked out to a nearby road to hail one for us himself, a toilet that suddenly started gushing was repaired really quickly with great communication, the unlimited coffee at breakfast was delivered with a smile and our many bags were held without issue. Our comfort and our enjoyment of the stay felt personal to the staff. Along with warm, modern and very well finished surroundings, this is a great choice!

Highly recommended
Pros:

We spent 7 nights in Native Kings Wardrobe (4 ordered directly between Nov. 5-9 + 3 ordered through Booking.com between Nov 11-14). The 2 apartments were similar, very spacious and well equipped . All the staff we met was very helpful and nice. 2 recommendations:
- Add a microwave
- Give the possibility to operate airconditioning independently (it is centrally controlled and was too hot for us).
We will definitely recommend you to.our relatives!

Établissement très confortable, bien situé et avec un excellent rapport qualité/prix
Pros:

We were lucky to be upgraded to a 2 bedroom flat : it was spacious, cosy, nicely decorated and well equipped. The beds are very comfortable.
The staff was very helpful. We had no hot water one morning and it was swiftly sorted out.
I strongly recommend Native Kings Wardrobe and I will come back .

2 small things however could be improved:
The light bulbs were not always appropriate ( too large for the lampshade in the living room ) or too white in one of the bedroom or just the bulb in the bathroom ( missing the lampshade) .
The toilets were not not spotlessly clean ( scaled)

You can reach directly St Pancras Eurostar in 10 minutes with ThamesLink ( City ThamesLink station is very close ). It is very convenient!

Nice apartment
Pros:

Nice apartment although it was directly to the street and on Thursday evening it was unbelievable loud because of the pub nearby. The staff is very kind and helpful and the food in the restaurant was very good as well.
