Crowne Plaza Kensington or Harrington Hall Hotel?
 

I am researching hotels to stay in when I visit my daughter who will be studying in London. Both the Crowne Plaza Kensington and Harrington Hall look nice and are convenient to my daughter's location. Does anyone know these hotels and can offer their recommendation? Thanks!

We stayed at the Kensington Crowne Plaza several months ago just before it was upgraded from a Holiday Inn. The location is first-rate, the room was modern with flat-screen TV, updated bathroom, etc. It was similar to a nice motel room in US. It gets really good reviews on tripadvisor.com.
This was our second time to stay in that area - the first was at Millennium Bailey's, just around the corner. We absolutely love being so close to the tube, to grocery stores, pharmacies, pubs, eateries and such. We'd definitely stay there again.

I have stayed at Harrington Hall three or four times and have no qualms about recommending it. The location is perfect-close to both the Gloucester and S. Kensington tube stations. Nice rooms, pleasant, staff, etc.

We are staying at Harrington Hall in August, any recent tips or information that would help. All information is older on this forum.Thanks
