Fantastic stay
First time we have been to Olympia Horse show so unsure about what where to stay we did not need to worry. Your apartment was fantastic, location perfect and good access to other facilities ie shops train station and of course Olympia itself.

Lovely, small hotel suite which was close to a small grocery store (down the block). I do wish it were closer to an Underground Station, but the walk was less than a mile.

Nice staff - okay location
Its a little bit awkward to get to. Nice and clean. The other guests were quite loud at 2 am. We didnt have hot water for a shower - the hotel staff helped us to find a different room to use and I m sure sorted this out.

10/10 Exceptional

Economical, convenient location
My clean and fairly quiet room perfectly met my needs while using research libraries in London. The kitchenette allowed me to economize on meals and also get an early start or arrive back in the evening to work while I ate. Kensington Studios is right around the block from the Olympia overground train station (one quick stop away from the Central line) and, alternatively a 15-20 minute walk to underground stations in Kensington. There are many convenience and grocery stores in the area (including a Whole Foods), restaurants and take-out food, charming neighborhoods and Holland Park for strolls, and nearby small museums, as well as easy access to greater London. The hotel staff was friendly and immediately responded to questions and requests. My room was modern in design, more spacious than I expected, had ample storage, the best shower I've had in a London hotel, a laptop-sized work desk, and a comfortable bed. An enjoyable place to stay and work!

attic room for 4 night stay in London
The hotel is in a good location with transport within easy walking distance. There is a local grocery shop and take away. Kensington High Street is a 10 minute walk away. The rooms are tired and not very clean. It could be much better with a little effort and investment.

Really pleasant. Spacious, clean and comfortable. Shower did play up a bit with the hot water not consistent. However, had a good sleep and would be happy to stay again.

Worst experience
On arrival I was told that I had to pay more money as a deposit when I had already paid the full amount via Expedia. The next day when I was due to collect that money back the worker Alex was very rude and unhelpful. Her customer service was not professional. The room was very small and not clean as there where stains on the cushions and small hairs on the bed. The room was also cold and noisy and when I complained , Alex did not want to listen. This is a shame as the hotel is close to the tube station which was ideal.

Friendly helpful staff
Friendly helpful staff, easy after hours check in, clean room serviced daily, quality refurbishment, small supermarket nearby, bus stop almost at door and quiet and well heated room. Only issue was lack of utensils to cook with, desk to sit at and not much space to unpack suitcase.

8/10 Very good

Highly recommended
Lovely apartment, spotlessly clean and well maintained with handy kitchen facilities. It was great to be able to be self sufficient for a few days stay in London, with the bonus of clean linen and staff available. Some traffic noise of course, but that's to be expected. Kensington Olympia tube station wasn't open during the week , but there was a replacement bus service, and Earls Court station was only ten minutes walk, so very convenient. I could connect to the wi-fi on my phone but my boyfriend couldn't get his tablet to connect, and the TV didn't work, but we only put it on once then off again! The surrounding area felt safe and the room service was very good. I would highly recommend these apartments to anyone.
