"Great Hotel, Excellent Service, Easy Access to Travel Around"

The Holiday Inn kensington is a great hotel. A few minutes walk from Kensington High Street underground station which is on kensington high street. It is a curcle line so stops at all the tourist attraction stations Inc Nottinghill fir Portabello Road. There are Green King pubs, Indian restaurants, M & S, Macdonalds and much more. Out of the hotel to the top of the road, turn right to many attractions if you like a walk.Kensington Gardens Inc Kensington Palace - 6 minsPrincess Diana`s memorial - 14 minsRoyal Albert Hall - 12 minsHyde Park - 20 minsKnights bridge, Buckingham Palace, St James Park, Westminster etc - no more than 25 minsIf you want a large room, it`s not for you but it is very clean and a base. It has a lovely bar, meals, the breakfast is very good and the added bonus of a swimming pool. Amazing.

"Ok"

Our stay was ok. Like most places rooms booked via 3rd party are not the best. The room was small but adequate for the amount of time we spent in it.

Clean hotel near underground. Room facilities good. Unfortunately only 2 lifts working so a bit of a wait getting to and from rooms. Breakfast disappointing as continental options poor although good choice of cooked items.

"Good location, good hotel but check your bill. "

Good size room for London and comfortable. Location good but there must be closer Hotels to Theatre land that are as good. Watch the add on`s to your bill if you stay here a 12% service charge was added to my extras and was not pointed out that I did not have to pay..... Sharp practice Holiday Inn.

"GOOD VALUE - BUT YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR"

Good location - central, but far away enough from Kensington High St to be quiet. Very helpful and pleasant staff. Nice overall space and energy. Downsides - the room was too small - you had to squeeze by the end of the bed to get to the wardrobe - only to find that the wardrobe door wouldn`t open more than 20 degrees as it hit the end of the bed. Decided to have an evening meal on one night as they have a `deal` - two courses plus a glass of wine, for £19.95 each, which for a central London hotel is good value. Or I thought it was - the main course of simple fish and chips was terrible. The haddock was a decent size but was tasteless. Not sweet as haddock should be. The chips were also completely tasteless - like eating cardboard. All frozen, presumably. The mushy peas were passable. We left most of it and went down the road to Wagamama as still hungry - great value and delicious. Holiday Inn should take a leaf out of their book!

"Vary dissatisfied "

This was meant to be a treat for my husband and myself .Firstly the room was tiny next the bath had a big rusty chip in it .we were on the forth floor and only one lift worked ,if you could get in it as this was also tiny and always full up . I picked this hotel as it had a swimming pool but they wanted to charge you to use it plus it was full of children .On the plus side the staff were friendly and breakfast was alright

"Poor service"

We were left a notice in our room to say that the air conditioning was having maintenance, we were left a fan which really did not keep the room cool. Were suppose to have been left bottles of water as a gesture Which we had not recived, when we contacted customer service, we were told we were only allowed one small bottle of water, which in the heat that we are having at the moment was very poor, I had also found out that other guest on our level had air conditioning. We then tried to use the pool at 7.30 and was told we were a minute to late as was refused entry all for the sake of a minute which was the time it took to get for the manager to explain that she has cashed up. Also we were charged a service charge for getting a drink from the bar . Very disappointed

"Disappointig"

No way we could fit into room allocated - it was tiny. One lift of 2 in lobby area out of service all time we were there.Requested 2 folding luggage holders to get off floor. Got one after calls 45 mins. Second one about 2 hrs.Asked for porter with cart to check out. Over 30 mins wait. Lousy service.

"Holiday Inn Kensington"

Room was not big enough for 3 adults and after paying over £900 for the theatre break, I was not expecting to sleep on a camp bed. This was not explained when I booked the room.The room was not prepared for 3 people on arrival with only 2cups, 2 teas and coffees etc and I had to ask for extra. I expected another bed for our party and a bigger room as the camp bed blocked access to the bathroom
