Top Science Museum Hotel Reviews

The Bailey's Hotel London Kensington

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about this hotel was lovely. Very clean, very convenient to Gloucester Rd tube, the attentiveness of staff was superior. Overall a very nice stay"

Hotel Riu Plaza London Victoria

10/10 Excellent

"After staying at a number of similarly priced hotels in London, this one stands out. The location and hotel were great. I would definitely recommend this hotel."

Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington

8/10 Good

"Staff were very accommodating and helpful."

Radisson Blu Hotel, London South Kensington

8/10 Good

"We had to ask to move room as we are both 60+ with mobility issues and I did not realise I would have problems accessing the bath/shower. Staff were excellent. Great breakfast. Comfy big bed."

Princes Gardens

10/10 Excellent

"This was one of my most favourite hotels in London. The staff were so nice, polite and patient. I arrive very late, 2am and staff wrre available and checked me in quickly. I always travel solo so most of the single rooms I book tend to be very small and cramped. This eingle room however was very spacious and the toliet bathroom had all the toiletries I needed. It's very close to South Kensington station and V&A."

The Ampersand Hotel - Small Luxury Hotels of the World

8/10 Good

"Clean and well maintained. Good location close to the South Kensington tube stop. Friendly and helpful staff. For a historic property, it has been nicely updated and modernized."

Numa London Chelsea Green

10/10 Excellent

"Daughter lives in Chelsea and this was a short walk to her flat. The early part of my stay I had a room with a kitchen. As there were excellent restaurants close by, I did not use the kitchen except for the fridge. Air conditioning was a godsend as it the temps were high. This is one of the reasons I did not stay with my daughter. On a student budget, she does not have AC in her flat. I stayed in smaller room later in my stay, and the room without the kitchen is much smaller with limited storage. I wouldn't recommend for a couple unless you are there with weekend bags. AC still was welcomed. For those who prefer to have someone on staff at the property, this is not the place. The app works perfectly for the front and room doors. I left my luggage in a locker the morning of my check-out as my train did not leave until the afternoon. I later realized that my code for the front door no longer worked. Thankfully, there was a housekeeper passing by just as I was trying to figure out how to contact the hotel. I would definitely return. We stayed at the property when it was Sonder, which offered breakfast in the main room. With coffee machine in the room and breakfast restaurants close by, I didn't find it to be something I missed."

The Kensington Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful hotel with super friendly staff."

The Queen's Gate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was beautiful and very comfortable"
