Staying in London can be a bit of a hit and miss affair when it comes to Hotels, its a bit like Tom Hanks in forest Gump where he says ” life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get !! this rings very true when looking at London hotels . We found that Staying at the Seraphine Hotel London (kensington high street) was fabulous. It doesn’t have a great street presence, so you need to be careful that you don’t miss it but once inside it does not dissapoint. When we arrived the gentleman on reception was cheery ,friendly and helpful which isn’t always the way in main capital Cities.
The room was a very decent size and was fitted out with modern and stylish decor and fixtures and fittings. We booked through bookings.com and we received a good rate of £110 per night, which is not bad for a kensington based london hotel.
The room was en-suite with a rain forest shower, it had an i phone charger and a direct computer link access ( great if your on business and want to hook up) they also give you free access to wifi and tea and coffee making facilities with and added bonus of biscuits and bottles of water. The TV was also well located opposite the bed so could be seen easily without having to crick ones neck !! There was also a safe which is a must have in major Cities.
Breakfast was continental or you could pay extra and get a cooked breakfast. The continental was great with a large selection of pastries, cereal, cheese and cold meats, boiled egg, fruit, tea, coffee and toast with preserves. Yum Yum !!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Seraphine Hotel London, we had a great night sleep on the queen size bed which was comfortable and quiet. The pillows where comfy too, gotta have a good pillow ; )
The address is Seraphine Hotel London 225 Kensington High street.
