The Bailey's Hotel London Kensington
At first, the room was very unsuitable: it faced the inner courtyard with a 24/7 source of noise: the enormous air conditioning system. Changing rooms was no problem. The new room was tasteful, sufficiently large and very clean. The staff were very courteous and helpful throughout.

The Ampersand Hotel - Small Luxury Hotels of the World
I really liked the hotel. It was clean, modern, and had friendly staff, and was very close to a tube station with direct access to the center of London. Staying on this side of town is way easier, getting in and out of London, and there is easy access to the center.
