Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
the rooms are so smàll as are the beds that the experience is one of feeling severely restricted. there are no facilities in the room. we paid for 4 nights but left after one night. i suggest a place to be avoided.
The manager was very rude and behaved like a racist to me.
I was scheduled to check out at 11am on today, Tuesday , 17th September but there’s a late check out option at 2pm at the hotel. I arrived back at the hotel at 2:20pm due to a delayed train trip to find that my personal belongings had been removed from my room. I even offered to pay for the extra hours but then the manager turned it down and behaved very awkwardly to me as if we had issues before now. I can never use this hotel again . It’s a shame !!!!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Rooms were way too tiny. Not enough space to even put my luggage.
The staff were so so friendly and made this stay amazing! The rooms are perfect for a short stay and there is great breakfast options. The communal room is cozy. The location is ideal ! Overall the stay was amazing!
The hotel was beautifully clean and the staff were very kind. Breakfast was lovely and fresh and the lounge area was very calm and relaxing. The room we had was quite small but clean and comfy. 3 small negatives, only 1 double electric socket on one side of a bed another above it in a little cabinet so we had to buy an extension lead so the other person could charge their phone on their side, no kettle in the room which meant you needed to go down to ground floor to get hot water and lastly no iron in the room, you did however have an ironing room in the basemen but the iron was not great so would recommend taking a hand steamer if you need clothes for a meeting. I maybe missed reading about those things so could be my error.
I've stayed at this Point A location at least a dozen times, and it never disappoints. Perfect size for a solo traveler, quiet at night, less than 10 minutes walk to Earls Court tube station in one direction, and 10 minutes in the other is Kensington High Street. The front desk staff are always friendly and helpful – zero complaints.
We had an amazing experience, staff was lovely and very helpful with directions, suggestions, even providing ideas for places to go and visit since day 1! Very convenient location from the airport to the hotel and lot of restaurants around, stores and pharmacies.
If you will stay for less than 5 days and bring one piece of luggage is ok, the room was extremely small, there is not even a place to put your clothes. The staff was great, loved the breakfast, 7-8 minute walk to underground and 5 min to bus stop. Bars/restaurants options in the area
This hotel was great!! rooms were a bit small and squished which was a bummer, we could only fit one suitcase on the ground at a time. but other than that it was terrific - the front desk girls were so nice and accommodating, the breakfast was yummy and they had ac in the rooms! definitely would stay here again, only a short walk from the underground
