It was fine
It was fine. Probably a really nice hotel 25 years ago, but doesn’t look like they’ve done anything to it since. Staff were really nice and helpful, bed was comfortable, and the price was good. I wouldn’t have put it as a 4 star hotel.

Great service and location
Great hotel. Friendly staff and the location is great, 5-10 min walk from High Street Kensington and the tube. Really reasonable priced too.
Looking for a central location, then this is the place to stay.

Ok, not great.
We were only there one night but the hotel is very dated, the rooms are in need of an overhaul. Have marked cleanliness down as the sink in the bathroom wouldn’t drain.
Also, car parking spaces are very small!

ok
Hotel is clean, restaurant offering is good, really enjoyed bujis. Overall hotel is little dated but well positioned and good value for location. Disapointments were the number of lifts out of service causing long waits at peak times. Also when checking in there was a queue of new guests and only one receptionist which took an age. In the fitness room no cups in the water dispenser Exercise bike not fully working and cross trainer in need of service. All that said I am likely to book again as locations suits my needs and budget

You get what you pay for
The hotel is lovely and I have stayed before on several occasions but I have always upgraded my room. This stay I had the standard room and it was very poor with the wallpaper peeling off the bed was like concrete and the heater did not work. If I ever go back I would have to upgrade the room choice. I have stayed in better travelodge rooms

Realistic review
Really needs to be repainted and carpets changed etc. looking very spent. Rooms are dated. Was clean enough, tv system is poor. I would never pay more than £80pn for it though.
