One night stay for a concert at the Royal Albert Hall which is only a 20 min walk away and a 5 min walk from South Kensington tube station. Room very good with a lovely comfy bed only minor issue is getting in and out of the ensuite(door could do with opening outwards). Would definitely stay again if attending Albert Hall

We enjoyed our stay at the Gainsborough. Our room was lovely and quite spacious. The breakfasts were excellent (across the road in the sister hotel). The only 2 negatives were the very limited availability of evening meals mid-week. However, the French Institute next door had a wonderful bistro. We should have gone there instead of trying the evening food at the hotel. And the other negative was the incredibly tiny en-suite shower room.

Location is excellent: on a quiet side street in Kensington with lots of bakeries and south Kensington tube station 5 minute walk. We stayed in a basement room of which I think the hotel has 3 or 4 and it smelled and looked a bit moldy and carpet was not clean or had been burned. Staff was really friendly and helpful.

Hotel easy to acces from south kensington and walkable to royal albert hall. Hotel staff were welcoming and the room was very clean and modern. Resonable price for central london. However, I would not choose a budget room again as it was on lower floors with no windows. Overal a very pleasent stay.

We have booked a budget room , which was below ground level and were upgraded to a standard room. Well, the Travel Lodge would have been better than the standard room at £175 per night. The only window in the room had a huge air-con covering all of it. The room itself was basic, but the bathroom was so tiny that you had to close the door to be able to move from the sink ( toy-size sink!) to the toilet! The location though was really good.

The room was very bare, and musty. There was a damp smell. As I checked out I noticed damp and mould in an alcove that housed the wardrobe. I could not recommend.
