"Thistle Kensington Gardens Hotel was clean, well maintained" Thistle Kensington Gardens Hotel was clean, well maintained, beds were comfortable, location excellent. It was about a 5 minute walk to the subway, close to lots of restaurants. I would stay here again

"Thistle Kensington Gardens Hotel is a nice hotel" Thistle Kensington Gardens Hotel is a nice hotel, the room is not big, but very comfortable. The best thing is the location of this hotel, facing Kensington Garden, green view. Very close to the subway station and a lot of restaurants and cafes. The area is also safe. The only drawback is part of the first floor is a gas station and convenient shop, the receiption area is on the second floor.

"Very Pleased with hotel" We were very pleased with our accomodations. Booked 2 triple rooms. Had more space than I had imagined for a European hotel. Mattresses were comfortable and rooms were very clean. The wallpaper had some tears in it and the carpet in the hallway had some worn areas. We had a view of Hyde Park from our room. Although we were there in November, we like to sleep in a cool room and the air conditioning worked well. The room was also very quiet as we didn't hear any street noise, nor could we hear other people on our floor. The buffet breakfast was included in our package and was wonderful. It included eggs (scrambled and fried), bacon, sausage, several kinds of ham, hash browns, fruit, cereals, pastries, juice, coffee, tea, hot chocolate, etc. etc. etc. With food being so expensive in London, it was a nice start to our day. There was an in-room safe and a heated towel rack. The hotel is close to two subway stations- Queensway and Bayswater- and directly in front of a city bus stop. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. We were very pleased with our selection of hotel during our stay in London this week and would definitely recommend it to family or friends who may vacation there.

"Loved it" We stayed in this hotel for the weekend, I was worried about it over the reviews but I couldnt have been happier. The room was non smoking and large enough for two to have lots of room (210) The view was well terrible but it didnt matter to us. It is over a petrol station but you wouldnt even notice in fact its handy to get snacks. The location is really great, next to the tube and across from the park. Over all I would recommend it to anyone. A great base to see the best of London - book a show if you can!

"Good Value for Money" Got a great deal online through Expedia (£88 inc VAT for B&B). We were a little wary after reading some of the recent reviews but really had nothing to worry about. The room was a little on the small side but big enough to crash in and was very clean. The bed was comfy and the air con was a blessing after trudging around in the heat. Bathroom was small but served it's purpose and the shower was heavenly; powerful and hot. Breakfast was great, plenty to choose from and went on til 11.00 for those of us who struggle to get out of bed. There are currently closures on the nearest tube line, but the hotel was literally a 5/10 mins walk from Bayswater. Great location and will definitely be using again

"our best stay in 3 visits" This was my third trip to London and my favorite hotel experience. We were there 9 nights. Wonderful location, close to tubes and bus line, across the street from the park, close to restaurants and some shopping. Room spacious for the price, comfortable beds and air conditioning. Enough storage space for our clothes; electric tea pot and instant coffee, tea and hot chocolate; hair dryer. A 120 v. outlet in addition to shaver outlet in bathroom. 2 newspapers a day. The upgrade to include breakfast also included robes, heated towel rack and trouser press. The staff was very pleasant and helpful and easy to deal with. We did not have dinner in the restaurant but a couple of times had beer and sandwiches in their bar. Food was good and well presented.
