Top hotels in Kew
Strand Palace Hotel
I loved my stay here. Staff were so friendly and the atmosphere was positive. Abdulla was able to get me into my room early without any notice as I rolled in on very little sleep. I stayed in a single room. It was comfortable and clean, and the natural light from the window made it feel big enough ...

Zedwell Piccadilly Circus
The property was fantastic for myself and my friend doing the half marthon. So conveniently positioned in the heart of London. We did struggle a bit without a window or hair dryer but we got used to it. Very clean and comfortable. Great value for money.

Sea Containers London
Good hotel right on the water front. The city view rooms should be taken with a pinch of salt as you don’t see much really. Great cocktail bar in floor 12 with prices that are not that bad, just a bit bad. Room rates seem on the high side but I guess you’re paying extra for the location.
