Check the noise of your room

I was using 2 different rooms. First one was nice. But 2nd room was so bad. My room might be near the metro station. The noise from train couldn't get me sleep. If you stay there, you have to ask the receptionist where your room is.

Boutique hotel

Perfect location, just across Gloucester tube station. Many restaurant options in the area, as well as supermarkets, drugstores and boutiques. Quiete at night in a pretty neighborhood. The Victoria and Albert and Natural Sciences are in a short walking distance. The hotel bar and restaurants are good. The personnel very courteous and professional

Perfect

We stayed for one night at the Baileys in Knightsbridge. It was a special treat as we were coming out to see Gregory Porter at the Royal Albert Hall for my husband’s birthday. We found the hotel staff exceptionally friendly.l and nothing was too much trouble for them. They decorated the bed beautifully for us as a surprise for my husband’s birthday. There was also a little gift. The room was tidy, clean and comfortable. The bathroom was spotless. We had a double on the fifth floor and it was more than comfortable. I would highly recommend this hotel. Excellent location for all the sites too. Thank you for a lovely stay Mandy and Tim Green ☺️

After not accepting an expensive offer to upgrade to a suite we were assigned a room that was below the level we had reserved. We were moved to an acceptable room after we complained. The nightly delivery truck noise from the street at 4am made a full night’s sleep impossible. The kettle was broken and the TV controller had dead batteries. Insufficient closet and shelf space available to allow unloading of cases.

I loved the hotel and quaintness of it. It was clean but needs a little refresh on the paint. The room was a bit beat up. Our favorite staff member was the Bartender JOSEPH. He was always so nice, funny, personable, and excited to see us. He made our stay the much more enjoyable. The location of the hotel is great. There is the Underground directly across the street which could not have been more convenient. Several breakfast places, pubs, dinner restaurants and a grocery store within 150 ft of the front door. We would stay here again.

We had a fantastic stay! We are two adults traveling with our 4-year-old child. The location is perfect — the subway is right outside the door. Housekeeping was excellent; our room always looked spotless and well-arranged every time we returned. The only downside was that breakfast, early check-in, and the extra bed for our child were quite expensive.
