"Really nice place to stay in a great area"

"This hotel is in a very busy, commercial area, which isn't horrible but can be very noisy at times. The Underground is right around the corner which is great. There are a ton of fast food restaurants and a couple very nice restaurants. As far as the hotel itself.... The staff is extremely helpful!! I mean that, they are great. Unfortunately, the hotel is lacking in many areas. We booked online they Expedia and was sent email letting me know that I could inquire about a free upgrade.... When we arrived, I inquired, and was told I was supposed to do that they Expedia. No such a great start. We got to our room which was tiny...I mean tiny and hot. They came to look into the air conditioning and we decided to just upgrade. Back down the stairs and we did the upgrade. I asked them to make sure the air conditioner worked before we moved ourstuff, I was told they would definitely check. . "

"I booked this hotel because the reviews were ‘wonderful’ . My experience was totally different. Positives The hotel is in a prime location . It’s a few minutes walk from South Kensington underground, close to Knightsbridge and the museums. But check in was very impersonal. I was very shocked that not only was a credit card taken but £50 charge was immediately taken and this wasn’t refunded until 12 noon on the day of departure. I have never experienced this in a hotel previously and I am a seasoned traveller. My room was on the fourth floor. The lift was my first appalling experience. Fake grass and plastic flowers I couldn’t have been more offended. But I accept that’s my personal prejudice. So my room . Ok but absolutely by no standards a five star experience. The carpet was grubby with a particular obvious stain on the right side of the bed. Lovely comfortable bed, nice robes provided. Fluffy towels shower was adequate but although a hair dryer was provided it was fairly inadequate and unfortunately the flex wasn’t long enough to reach a plug point that also allowed access to a mirror. I dried my hair standing up next to the wardrobe where the plug points were. But the main issue for me was the noise. My room was situated next to the housemaid’s cupboard. So from 7 am every morning I was disturbed by banging and clanging. Additionally I heard every conversation in other guest rooms during my stay. I knew when they used the toilet and took a shower. Not for me "

"Very clean and renovated hotel at an excellent location. The staff was very friendly. Very spatious room. The rooms could use some renovation, especially the closets."

"I had a great stay at the Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington and would definitely recommend it. The location is fantastic—just a short walk from Kensington High Street, with easy access to public transportation, shops, and restaurants."

"I couldn’t make this booking and no one it seems noticed. This is pretty poor seeing as they bombarded me with upgrade and marketing ideas before I stayed. So I’ve gone a low rating for hotel attention and average for hotel amenities etc as I’ve got no idea. Co all I know it’s a dump. However had the hotel inquired why I could t stay I might’ve been more friendly"

"The room was clean and comfortable however the bathroom was very small and there were no suitable mirrors or lights to do hair and make up."

"When checked in, the iPad doesn’t work while typed in my information. That is your only way of check in and out, it should have been check daily are they working properly or not. Apart from that room is what you need for a night stay. There only one towel each. Face towel would have been helpful."
