Customer reviews for Kensington Close Hotel & Spa

Edited summary of customer comments

-- The staff at the Kensington Close hotel attracted very mixed reviews, for though in general they were praised – visitors noted “the concierge was very friendly and helpful”, “the staff were well-mannered” and “The friendly staff (especially in the reception area)” – some customers had serious problems with individual staff members: "'The customer is always right' obviously did not apply at this hotel" was one observation, “I object to… the way I was treated by the senior staff in the bar” was another. Aside from this, the “location, in a quality, upmarket, safe and easily accessible area of London” was popular, as was the pool, although one guest was annoyed that “The hotel blurb implied that use of the pool was free”. The hotel was considered by most to be “clean and comfortable”, if a little “functional”. --

Most recent feedback from actual LondonTown.com customers

Currently the hotel is undergoing a major refurbishment which makes the hotel very noisy during the day. However, if you are travelling on business and at meetings most of the day it's great value at the moment.  

Denise from Llangwm, United Kingdom would recommend this hotel to a friend

The rooms were very small and the bathroom was awful i will never stay there again

Karen from Braintree, United Kingdom would not recommend this hotel to a friend
