This is our third stay this year and we are back in September. It is a great base, very clean with friendly staff and comfortable beds. It also has air con which is just amazing at the moment especially during this heatwave. We have been to several concerts at Wembley Stadium and find the short walk to Earls Court tube station easy to get to and easy to navigate. There is also a coffee and pastry deal if you don’t fancy a full breakfast. Highly recommend, see you in September x

Everything was fine, but the room was too small for my liking. I could not even unfold my suitcase without obstructing the free space in the room.

The hotel was in a great location, very easy to navigate and get to the Tube station to get around London! The room and bathroom were very clean, we had two people with two twin beds. There was enough space for our luggage and to unpack some. The staff was very helpful and kind when we were going in and out throughout the day.

Lovely stay at Pointa Kensington for Wimbledon Championships …very good location! Clean room and comfortable beds! The only downside was that there are no tea and coffee making facilities and the only usb point in the room wasn’t working, which I reported to staff. The staff were ALL pleasant, welcoming and friendly… would stay here again! Thanks

Rooms are clean and comfortable, ac was much appreciated during 30+ degree days. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast is an additional charge unless you are a point a member, which wasn’t clear from the Expedia booking. Location is very close to the Design Museum, Natural History Museum and V & A and very accessible to transit (under 8 minute walk to Earl’s Court station).

Booked this hotel specifically for AC in the room during July. Room AC did not work and after working through it for almost 2 hours with the staff, it still did not function. They offered a fan which never brought the room temperature below 25C/77F. I had to provide timestamped screenshots to get them to agree to a full refund. Their initial offer was only a 15% refund although we cancelled only after trying to get the room AC to work on their timeline. Also they charged 3 pound per bag to hold them when we arrived early. Just note they won’t do that for free even if you are staying.

Comfortable, clean, modern, air conditioned room. Great buffet breakfast. Handy part of town if you’re wanting to get to the museums. Even though the hotel is situated next to a busy road, the room was perfectly quiet.

The room was nice but some days felt very warm, possibly because of the outside temp. A few chairs in the room and mini fridge would be nice or even easy access to ice to cool your drinks. Location was safe and walkable .

Although our room was clean, we were choked on how small it was. One side of the bed was too cramped to get out of bed on that side so we had to push the bed but then the other side was tight too! No drinking facilities at all in the (no tea, no coffee, no water), of course no fridge. No hand towels in the bathroom. Clothes hanging facilities very poor. Breakfast was adequate , no more than that. We paid a lot for that room so big disappointment all around!

June 2026; 2ppl; 7 nights; "Cosy Double with Window"; Top-floor; Front. Room: Size euro normal; smaller if used to NA hotels, but found completely adequate and comfortable for 2ppl and our luggage. Light blocking curtains. Zero street noise. Bed comfortable. Smart-tv, hair dryer, coat hangers, safe, and fold out chair. Clean and newer furnishings. Room AC managed 30C+ heat fine. Elevator quick and roomy. Minor suggestions: Bathroom latch update; Add a folding luggage stand. Breakfast: Worth it and quality: good pastries. Can take to go. More than enough variety for my tastes, but check photos of spread if particular. Eating area quiet, comfortable and spaced/planned well. Never had to hunt for a seat. Staff cleared and cleaned tables swiftly. Staff: Friendly, available, and accommodating. Check-in quick/easy; will hold luggage for 3p (standard). Location: Area pleasant, close shops, good Tube access (District/Piccadilly direct to most places). Tip: For pleasanter walking route to Tube: take a right on hotel exit and use crossing just down the road. During stay building exterior was damaged and needed immediate repair work; necessitating brief room access. Unfortunately partner was bedridden with illness for the day, staff handled situation professionally and were very empathetic and proactively accommodating; providing temporary room for duration. Unexpectedly and generously; they have actually since opted to refund the night for the inconvenience. Would book again.

The biggest issue with this hotel was the size of the rooms. They were extremely small, with virtually no space to open luggage. The only way to access our belongings was to place the suitcase on the bed. Once the luggage was on the floor, there was barely enough room to move around the room. The bathrooms were equally cramped. The space around the toilet was so tight that I had to sit at an angle to avoid my knees hitting the wall. The location is the hotel's strongest feature. It is very close to Kensington Olympia and Olympia stations, within walking distance of High Street Kensington, and surrounded by many restaurants and food options. Breakfast was basic and consisted mainly of pastries, boiled eggs, cereal, tea, and coffee. It was adequate but nothing special. I would not stay here again. If you are claustrophobic or prefer a reasonable amount of space in your hotel room, this property is probably not for you. A friend who stayed at the same hotel was assigned a basement room that had only a skylight in the ceiling as its source of natural light.
