Fodor's Review:

This opulent hotel is an elegant escape in Kensington. Housed in a creamy-white Victorian building, its lobby is a gorgeous explosion of marble, with high ceilings and chandeliers. The bedrooms are almost palatial in size (by London standards), with silk wallpaper, golden furnishings, and fine marble bathrooms with whirlpool baths—some have steam rooms. The two restaurants serve modern British cuisine with Continental touches, and Malachite is a quiet bar for a brandy after dinner. The staff is obliging, and the marble Turkish steam room is a unique haven from the stresses of the day. Pros: luxurious rooms; gorgeous spa; great location. Cons: can be a bit stuffy; old-fashioned style won't please everyone.
