Comfort Inn Kensington London
 

Just posted re: Quality Inn S. Kensington, then I found the Comfort Inn Kensington on Cromwell which looks like a better option. The rate is 63L per night and it has a/c which is a "must" since we sweltered last time we were there. Is this a decent choice for a hotel? Thanks.

I just got back last week, stayed at the Holiday Inn Forham Kensington on Cromwell rd The rooms were not that small and it did have A/C. Had a great view of London and its right next to the tube . Would stay there again

Where did you see the 67 GBP rate? I looked at three websites & 95 GBP was the lowest. Their own website was 120+GBP. This was for October.

I booked it from Travelocity this morning for 63.75 GBP. I don't think it includes breakfast but that's not a big deal to me. I think it's a rate for when it's close to when you're going though (stand by rate)-we're going in about 3 weeks. It wasn't one of the guaranteed rates either so you can cancel without penalty.<BR><BR>The best rate I can find for Holiday Inn Forham Kensington is 130 GBP. It's right near where we stayed last time and it is a great location. I'll keep on eye on it to see if the rates go down as I'd prefer that location. If you have a good booking site, please share.

I stayed at the Comfort Inn Kensington in '97. My room was small (as others I've had throughout London), but air-conditioned! It can be hot in summer so I appreciated an a/c room after lots of walking and touring all day. Room was recently renovated, clean and comfortable.The Earl's Court tube is a few blocks away, the Airbus from Heathrow has a stop nearby. Definitely good value.

Thanks Andrea, just the reassurance I was looking for. A small room doesn't bother me since we're typically not in it much.

Try priceline. Each time(3 different times) I picked a different neighborhood, depending where I wanted to stay, and a 4 star hotel, and got Thistle as low as $70 and only as high as $75.00. That's about 50 GBP.<BR>Their rooms are usually good sized with nice bathrooms, AC, and the locations can't be beat.

We stayed at the Comfort Inn in Kensington in November 2000. We had a double room and my mother in law had a single. The single room was perfect for one person our double room was small, no closet, but we weren't in it too much. Earls Court station is about a long block away. Would stay there again.

Well, I just tried Priceline and I got a 4 star hotel in Kensington (Copthorne Tara Kensington) for $75 plus taxes! I checked the hotel's website and the cheapest room is 106L, roughly $160. Thanks for the suggestion, I haven't thought about using Priceline as I was worried that I'd get stuck somewhere.<BR><BR>

I stayed there a couple years ago and my room was right up front on the road but still was pretty quiet and best of all my room had a bathtub. The staf was very helpful and as a single female I felt quite safe walking the neighborhood after dark. The bus stop was just down the block and the tube was about 2 blocks away. I booked based on price and was very pleased.
