The whole place is a great place to stay. However you. Have todo something about those fire drills! In the 17 days i was there we had at least 9 drills! You maybe cant do much about the steam causing the alarm system to go off, at least you can do more to let people know how it happens. The new folks coming in have no idea. Signs are too few and too small.

Princes Gardens is lovely venue for a break in London. My room was immaculately clean and fresh, with really nice views over the gardens. Staff were friendly and check-in was very speedy. Security and safety were great, with a double-door entry security system at street level of reach building. I have stayed here before and would definitely return again.

Fantastic location and very good value, with a clean, well-furnished room and quiet surroundings. My only issues were with the lift and kitchens being unavailable and the fire alarm going off early one morning due to someone's shower setting it off. I would happily stay here again.

The courtesy and excellent service of your staff made up for any shortcomings the facilities had. In particular, many of the elevators were not working and fridges on our floors were not available. Location excellent. Thank you and regards, F. Sajed

Excellent solution to my requirement for a room for a night in this part of town. Courteous and efficient check in, and very nice tranquil room. Thank you. I would like to stay again in future.

I loved the location in South Kensington and the friendly reception. I found the lack of ventilation in the room - and inability to open a window - made it difficult to sleep.

Anon

Good clean accommodation near Exhibition Road. Comfortable bed. Good value accommodation in Central London.
