Very comfortable surroundings with courteous staff
Very quick and courteous check in followed by a short tour of the hotel. Luggage arrived in room super fast. Very tasty lunchtime snack in quiet surroundings. Bottle of bubbly left in our room as it was my husband’s birthday which was a nice gesture. Lovely brekkie the following morning and quick and easy checkout. Will revisit in the future

Birthday gift to myself
This is my second time staying at the Kensington. The staff was wonderful and they tried really hard to meet all my needs. They surprised me with a balloon, sparkling wine and a really good Victoria sponge cake. The bed was really comfortable and I received turned down service every night. Afternoon tea was wonderful and delicious. The only problem was one of the elevators’ buttons didn’t work for my floor. But other than that it was a lovely experience.
