We loved our stay SO much. It was the perfect location and the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. I do wish there had been a few more breakfast options, that was my only complaint! Would definitely stay here again.

Liked: Staff & service
The staff tried their best to accommodate our needs. They were very helpful. Our room was cleaned only once and it had to be requested. It was cleaned very well. But the room itself was small for a ten day stay. The bathroom shower curtain did not come down far enough and the floor was soaked after a shower. The location near Kensington Park was perfect for us. Breakfast was ample if simple but the fresh squeezed orange juice was terrific!

Very nice little spot. Quiet. But super close to all your needs. Made my first visit in London very smooth. Front desk is accommodating. No A/C in rooms but a fan is provided and the window opens. It never got brutally hot even in August. Highly recommend!

If you'd like to stay in a hot, uneven shoebox this is for you. The Staff we dealt with were mostly exceptional. Needs a compendium to show where things are eg. The essentials were on level 1. Power sockets don't meet modern requirements. Requires A/C, sheles & rails in bathroom. Not handicapped friendly.

Gut mit verbesserungspotenzial

Eigentlich ganz gut. Lage prima. Leider wurde uns beim Aufenthalt von 5 Tagen nicht einmal der Roomservice gemacht. keine neuen Handtücher kein neuer Bettbezug, keine Reinigung. Die Dusche war ziemlich klein. Auch der einstieg sehr eng. Hingegen das Morgenessen super war.

Great Kensington Hotel! Would stay again!

Beautiful hotel wonderfully located! Easy walk to museums, night life, restaurants. Longer walk to the tube, but manageable. AMAZING breakfast buffet! Staff is very helpful when they are onsite. Night number for assistance went unanswered. They are kind in letting people store their luggage, we used that and the staff was amazing! They let me check in a few hours early. Very kind.

Siisti kiva hotelli hyvällä paikalla. Ympäristössä ravintoloita ja Hyde Park näkyi ikkunasta. Aamiaisella ei ollut monia vaihtoehtoja mutta ihan ok. Allergiat huomioitu pienesti.

It was amazing staying at Sonder. The room was very clean. Even though my room was on the basement level, it was surprisingly well-ventilated and felt quite comfortable. The location was perfect—being close to Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park made morning walks delightful. The breakfast was excellent, and I also loved how convenient it was to have a bustling area nearby. I would definitely love to stay here again on my next visit to London!

A small cheap hotel located close to what we needed but you get what you pay for. A tiny room, a lift that does not inspire confidence and little support from the few staff that are around.

The hotel is in a quiet area about 15 min walk from the tube. The room was clean and comfortable. I stayed in a single room and it was perfect for my needs. Staff were helpful when I needed their help. Breakfast had a nice choice of friut, breads & pastries, meat & cheese. I would stay again.
