The Bailey's Hotel London Kensington

The Bailey's Hotel London Kensington

8/10 Good
"Check in and check out… Both arriving and departing was a drawn out process. Just far too slow. Really tried my patience. Then had to wait ages for the concierge. Friendly pleasant staff though. Communal areas… Pleasant enough. Room was on 1st floor up the main stairs and hang a right to the part beginning 108 or something like that. Problem is when you get up there the corridors stink! Need a good airing out and maybe carpets shampooing. Musty. Bedroom… Decent size. Comfy bed. Quiet. Needed a note pad and pen - I needed one and was surprised not to see one. Good size television. Only one teabag per person which felt a tad stingy. Guess if i asked they would have brought more. Complimentary bottles water was a nice touch. Bathroom… Clean. Lovely products. Decent size and good hot shower. Missed the little extras like cotton pads and buds etc. Breakfast… Very pleasant dining room which is where hotels can sometimes fall down. Light and airy. Good hot and cold options. Fried eggs looked a bit grim though so had a cooked breakfast without. Location… Excellent for tube (which is right next door) with great food and drink options locally. Would I stay again ? Yes. The issues i mention are minor."
