It was good until the last second everything was ruined
Pros:

Some staff were good and the location is good

Cons:

Absolutely unacceptable treatment — never staying here again.

This was not my first time staying at this hotel, and I had returned because my previous experiences were good. Unfortunately, after what happened during this stay, it will definitely be my last.

We arrived at the hotel at around 3:00 AM and were clearly informed that we had a late checkout until 12:00 PM. Because of our extremely late arrival, we planned accordingly: wake up around 11:30, shower, pack our belongings, and leave by the agreed checkout time.

Instead, at around 11:00 AM, we were woken up and told that we needed to leave. I calmly explained that we had been given until 12:00 PM and that we would leave at the agreed time.

What happened next was completely unacceptable.

A receptionist named Natalie came to our room and started knocking on the door so aggressively it sounded like she was trying to break it down. When I opened the door, instead of speaking to us professionally, she raised her voice and shouted:

“LEAVE IMMEDIATELY! WE NEED THE ROOM!”

I asked her to lower her voice and speak to me respectfully. I explained again that we had been told our checkout was at 12:00 PM. Her response was to accuse me of lying, saying that this “never happened.”

Whether another member of staff failed to put the late checkout into their system is absolutely not the guest’s responsibility. We were told 12:00 PM, and we planned our morning based on that information.

Despite her attitude, I remained calm and cooperative. We even allowed staff into the room while my friend was still taking a shower, simply because we did not want the situation to escalate. In the end, we actually left the room at approximately 11:30 AM — earlier than the checkout time we had originally been given.

Yet somehow the situation became even more ridiculous at reception.

Natalie then attempted to charge us a late-checkout fee, despite us having left at 11:30.

Jederzeit wieder, aber mit ausdrücklichem Hinweis, kein Zimmer im Untergeschoss zu akzeptieren
Pros:

Der Service war ausgezeichnet! Das Rezeptionsteam jederzeit erreichbar, bemüht, einfühlsam und immer höflich & freundlich. Die Lobby war hell, sauber und hatte ein angenehmes Ambiente zum Wohlfühlen. Generell hatte das Gebäude den Charme eines authentischen, typisch britischen Wohnhauses in guter Lage. Die Lage war trotz der Nähe zur viel befahrenen Brompton Street ausgesprochen ruhig.

Cons:

Leider wurde unserer Bitte nach 3 Zimmern, die in der Nähe zueinander liegen, nicht entsprochen - eines unserer 3 Zimmer war weit von den beiden anderen entfernt. Enttäuscht waren wir von der Tatsache, dass die beiden nahe beieinander liegenden Zimmer im Untergeschoß lagen. Obwohl beide über Fenster verfügten, konnten diese nicht über die "Kelleratmosphäre" hinweghelfen. Ein entsprechender Hinweis bei Zimmerbuchung wäre vortehilhaft.

Loved the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff.
Pros:

The beauty of the hotel and including the beauty of the street it was on. I enjoyed the Lyft too. Not used to seeing and old style elevator. Most important of all was the staff, absolutely friendly kind and courteous. I should say very helpful too. The size of the bathroom was great.

Cons:

The arrangement of the room, difficult to move around the bed. We felt the price for the breakfast was too high. The size of the Lyft was not desirable. We had to deal with the bathroom to the bedroom ramp since the floors were on a different height.

Fabulous
Pros:

The room was huge and extremely clean and comfortable. It was a wonderful hotel. The tea and scones in the afternoon, upon arrival, was a very welcome extra and having breakfast brought to my room meant I could get ready for the day in a very relaxed manner.

Cons:

That I only stayed for one night.
