Tutto sommato non male
Pros:

Quartiere tranquillo e sicuro, a due passi dalle metro. Camera singola veramente piccola e con scale in discesa per arrivarci, un po’ complicato se si hanno molti bagagli. Camera nuova e bagno moderno. Pulizia molto buona.

Cons:

Colazione migliorabile a livello di numero di prodotti del buffet.

Pros:

Very nice location in Notting Hill, close to many cute shops and eateries. Very nice bathroom.

Cons:

The room was very small with a small double bed. We are a couple of two men and it was too small for us.

The breakfast is ok-ish but they don’t have anything containing pork, I guess it’s based on religious belief. I don’t care per se but they replaced pork-based items with turkey based ones and, honestly, I would rather not have bacon at all than ultra processed turkey meat to make it look like bacon…. 21£/pp for that breakfast is a no go, you’d better go to the many breakfast places just next door for that price.

Really good value for money
Pros:

We stayed in a family room on the lower floor. Nice and clean room with good firm beds. The bathroom is a little small but clean and sufficient. Helpful staff and good location, also for public transport. Would stay there again.

Lovely stay, easy walk to tube. Can't wait to come back!
Pros:

The hotel was spotless clean. The staff was absolutely wonderful and the breakfast was delicious. The bed could have been a bit more comfortable, maybe a mattress topper would help, and the top floors were a bit warm. Adding a small fan to top floor rooms would be a nice touch. Wereally appreciated having tea and coffee in the room, and even had a biscuit to go with it. Nice touch! It was a very easy walk to the tube station.
