Great location but pricey for a small room

Great location for the Albert Hall which is why we chose it. Helpful and friendly staff. Hotel was pricey, even by London standards and despite paying extra for the room upgrade it was still pretty small and the bed was a small double, which we could hardly walk around. The tap leaked in the bathroom and every time the toilet flushed water sprayed everywhere. There was no separate shower and instead it was over a bath and there was no screen but instead a tatty shower curtain so we did not use. Parking was a 5 minute walk and cost an additional £45. Breakfast was good and service the same, although a slight mishap when my partners breakfast was spilled over me, although it was quickly cleared away and staff were most apologetic.

All just a bit naff. The room was lovely, on first inspection, but the bathroom was very old, the bed was really uncomfortable and the pillows were nest to useless.

Myself and the children shared a large room with a sofa bed. It was a lovely service and all enjoyed the stay. Very handy to be able to park overnight on Saturday behind and visit London on Sunday where parking was much easier and accessible spaces more readily available.

The location was very good - loved the neighborhood. Kensington Park was just across the street. We walked through the park every day on our way to see the sights. Bathroom sink & faucets could use some maintenance. The bar and dining room were excellent, and the food was exceptionally good. The service staff in both were very attentive and friendly. We would definitely stay here again.

Great location for The Royal Albert Hall

The hotel has a warm friendly feel and the Lady Blessington Room was delightful except that the shower water temperature couldn't be regulated during our stay but the bath was great. Breakfast was cooked to order and was delicious.
