What an absolutely lovely hotel to choose from while my husband and I celebrated our honeymoon! Not only were we greeted with a welcome and congratulations upon arrival, but we were also surprised with a sweet congratulatory note and a bottle of wine from the staff that was left in our room. Not only that, but the hotel itself was absolutely beautiful! With a breathtaking lobby decorated for Christmas, a cozy bar off to the side, and the coziest rooms, it was such a nice respite at the end of our days. And the staff was always willing to be incredibly helpful if we needed anything, especially with this being our first time in London. Thank you for helping to make our honeymoon so memorable and enjoyable!

A Wonderful Stay at Bailey’s Hotel, London My family’s recent stay at Bailey’s Hotel in London was wonderful. From the moment we stepped into the beautiful Victorian building, we were greeted warmly by the staff. The lobby is lovely, with stunning architecture tastefully restored and charming Christmas decorations. The location of Bailey’s Hotel is unbeatable, situated in the heart of Kensington. It provided easy access to some of London’s most iconic landmarks, and the nearby Gloucester Road tube station was handy for exploring the city. The staff at Bailey’s were lovely and responsive. We checked into a suite for our family of four, and the concierge was very helpful, assisting us in booking our meal for the first evening. Our room was very good. The beds were comfortable, and the cleaning staff ensured the room was spotless, with bottled water and complimentary tea and coffee provided. The one negative was the limited closet space, which meant one of our children had to keep their clothing in their suitcase during the trip. While the rooms were nice, a bit of interior design could enhance their appeal. Overall, our stay at Bailey’s Hotel was wonderful, and we would certainly return again.

Incredibly helpful staff, before and during our stay. The rooms were great. The restaurant was great. We stayed over New Years, and other than fireworks at midnight, it was very quiet. The location was perfect for us and our 5 day stay.

The Bailey’s Hotel never disappoints. Very helpful concierge, door men, and great English breakfast. Lord Gary always goes above and beyond expectations for helping with anything needed. The property is very clean. The location right across the street from Goucester Road tube stop is super. The location is also a few minutes walking to Victoria and Albert museum, Harrod’s, Royal Albert Hall, and several good restaurants. The Christmas decorations were absolutely stunning! We will return there next time in London.

Traveled as a family of 4 with young kids. The Bailey was a welcome site after a long flight. Jet lagged and tired, we got there at the time they said the room would be ready - but unfortunately they were running behind. Instead of making us wait too long they ended up finding another solution and upgraded us to a bigger room. It was so nice to see that kind of hospitality. The concierge and bell folks are great as is their front desk personnel. Easy walking around the area, lots of pubs and food places. Pharmacy which is often important when you have young ones is just around the corner. Place is easy, clean, and reliable. Bar and restaurant downstairs also a welcome treat. We were quite happy and would be back!

I had an amazing time at this hotel during the holiday season. The hotel staff were wonderful and accommodating when I arrived. I arrived too early to check in so they allowed for me to store my bags while I explored. The room was nice and cozy. The staff were exceptional in helping me when needed. The hotel was decorated very beautifully for the holiday season which made my stay very festive. Also, this hotel is in the perfect location to catch the tube, as the tube station is directly across the street from the hotel. Also, very convenient to different fast food places if you need a quick bite.

Lobby was lovley, staff was great. Location was fantastic. But i wouldn't stay there again. The room I was given was claustrophobically small with 2 deceptive windows that just looked onto a dark alley, and could hardly see the sky. The bed was oddly short (I'm not tall), and the pillows were truly awful (I ended up using a cushion instead). Mattress was fine and the shower was nice, but a small, windowless bathroom with a slow-draining sink. Felt like I was being punished, despite 3 nights costing more than my paycheck.
