London Marriott Hotel Kensington

This is an excellent property in a lovely area of London. It is a residential area of London and therefore avoids the pitfalls of some London destinations. Nearby are the Natural History Museum- the building itself is breathtaking and the V+A ( my personal favourite)But it is on the Piccadilly line so every museum is accessible. The rooms are well appointed and well designed and reflect excellent value for money- accommodation in London is more expensive than most European cities and properties close to the most iconic tourist sights reflect this even more strongly. The staff in the hotel are lovely- very eager to help in any way. We are members of the Bonvoy group- which I would recommend since it seemed to afford us even more than anticipated privileges. For example we arrived very early in the morning but a room was made available immediately- much to our surprise and delight. We were offered complementary beverages in the breakfast room straight away as well which felt very hospitable. A unique feature of the hotel is that they have an agreement with the next -door gym and guests can use all the gym resources. There is no hotel gym that could compete with this upmarket, well equipped gymnasium!! Travellers who like to work out should strongly consider this accommodation choice. The breakfast Buffet contains all the expected items and there is adequate seating to ensure that no-one feels crowded. I would highly recommend this hotel. It was such a warm experience and went a long way to my happy sojourn in London

The organisation was very good. Personeel was very helpful.

Recently stayed here for 8 nights. This hotel met my expectations and needs. Reasonably-sized clean rooms with daily cleaning and all the usual amenities. Comfortable beds with the ability to control the temperature of the room. Well located for attractions and restaurants. The rooms were mostly quiet at night, unless you had an especially noisy neighbour. Just a few things to note, I would recommend double checking the agreed upon price at check-in. For me, the price listed in their system was higher than what I booked the room for online. Thankfully, the concierge quickly corrected the price on their end with little hassle. Also, I would suggest bringing your own dish soap. In my room, I noticed the used cups were not changed daily, but rather were cleaned. Not being entirely sure what constituted as a “cleaning” for this (e.g. Was a dish rag reused for every room?), I ended up rewashing the glasses, mugs and spoons myself before each use.
