Great stay

Our stay was perfect. The room on the top floor was clean and spacious for the three of us. Bathroom was solid. Really appreciate the Nespresso coffee, kitchenware, and nicely toiletries. The staff had great recommendations for restaurants and the area is beautiful and close to the tube.

The hotel building and rooms are not even close to 4 star hotel. The beds squeaks, the bathroom is tiny and very old. I can hear guests in rooms above and next to my room as well as their squeezing beds. I was on the first floor, I can hear cars and pedestrians all day long. It was a terrible 4 days stay! I could not sleep! The only positive thing about that place was the staff. They were helpful and friendly.

Room very small I asked for a king sized room and it was tiny, bathrooms, the shower very dirty, pillows uncomfortable. A moldy smell. Definitely not a 4 star hotel, are is great, staff friendly but totally wrongly advertised! And overcharged after I left a day early.

The Resident Kensington is well located, close to the Underground, and a lovely hotel. Ayush and his team were very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Check in was a breeze and the facilities had everything we needed. The Kensington area is very nice, and The Resident is close to many restaurants. We'll definitely stay at The Resident for future London visits.

The hotel is ok but I booked a “small double” - this is a single! Definitely only suitable for one person and even then it felt too small

This property is in a great area, quick walk to Earls Court station on the Piccadilly line, which gives quick access to central London and Heathrow. The hotel is clean and rooms are small (at least the one we had) but well appointed - a small kitchenette was a nice touch. Only problem was wooden blinds, which did not close properly and one was broken, so room never got dark. This was passed on to front desk. But overall a nice little hotel for a London trip.
