Great foyer in the hotel. Night Manager was brilliant. Rooms are very small and very old fashioned. Nice staff overall more

I chose this hotel as part of a package from Virgin Vacations in 2004 and was really pleased! If you are looking for luxury and being catered to, this is not the hotel for you. If you're looking for a charm, a comfortable room, internet access, a filling breakfast, plus a quiet and unbeatable location - by all means, stay... more

Me and my Boyfriend stayed at this hotel last year for Valentines Day, I thought I would write a review as both the thisle hotels on the same street were BAD! We firstly booked to stay at the thisle park hotel which, was the 3* although we thought it was a 4* at the time. Checking in was slow, but... more

I had meant to stay at the Hotel Kensington Palace (which I stayed at before). I got mixed up and booked the Hotel Kensigton Park, I should have guess by the price! There is room for improvement, but overall it's not bad. I found it quite clean and reasonable. The service could have been better, the staff weren't the most... more

First off, I want to say that there are TWO thistle hotels right next to each other on the same street. KENSINGTON PARK is a 3 Star hotel, and KENSINGTON GARDENS/PALALCE is a 4 Star hotel. I am afraid that some people are confusing the two. WE stayed in the Kensigton Park hotel and it is definatley NOT a 3... more

It is a small, quiet hotel just across of Hyde Park. It is very old like most of the hotels in London. However, what is old in this hotel is not only the building itself, all of the furniture in the rooms and lobby, bathroom, closets etc. was very very old. We though that the furnitures in the lobby will... more

On 11 September 2007, my son and I registered at the Thistle Kensington Park Hotel as guests of British Airlines. The room assigned, was inadequate to say the least, and did not even have a safe in which to store our valuables. Since this was my first visit to England, I thought this was standard procedure in spite of the... more

I had seen some good and some bad reviews here, so in an attempt to set the record straight - this is a mid priced hotel, and is a nice place to stay. It is near two Tube Stations, Gloucester Road and Kensington High Street. It is clean, safe, everything in the room worked well, and the staff were helpful.... more

We chose this hotel as we had had good experiences with other Thistle group properties in London and wanted a hotel close to the Royal Albert Hall. Booking online was very problematic as the Thistle website crashed several times - resulting in phoning to book (a month before our visit). The day before we travelled Thistle reservations called to confirm... more

I stayed at this hotel while in London on a Course. I was only there for 3 nights but I was very impressed. I was staying in a Double room and was impressed with the size and quality. The fittments were in good condition and very clean. The only downpoint being the 1990's TV Facility but I am sure these... more
