    the area felt safe and welcoming, with many grocery stores and eateries nearby. the staff, especially a lovely lady who assisted me with extending my stay, were helpful, even reheating food for me. the filtered water tap was a nice touch too.

    Nothing major to complain about! 😊.

    I had a wonderful five-night stay primarily for leisure. The location is perfect, just a short walk from the tube station and major museums. The room was spacious, cozy, and clean, with lovely toiletries provided. I appreciated the secure building access and helpful staff.

    I can just recommend this hotel.

    the location was perfect for us, with great access to numerous pubs and restaurants, yet it remained peacefully quiet. our king size ensuite room was just right for our needs, and it was nicely equipped.

    Was all great! 😊.

    I had a fantastic New Year's stay! The location couldn't be better-just a short walk from the tube and close to awesome spots like the V&A Museum. The room was cozy and stylish, and I loved the comfy bed! Plus, the self-serve coffee in the lobby was a nice touch, perfect for those early mornings.

    The bathroom had some plumbing issues on my last night, which meant we had to use the lobby restrooms. the cleanliness wasn’t up to par—seeing a lipstick mark on the window was a bit off-putting. A heads up that there's no daily cleaning service would have been nice too!

    The location was fantastic, just a short walk to nearby stations, making it easy to access attractions and restaurants. The staff were responsive, answering my questions quickly, and even resolving a minor issue with my TV remote on the first night. I appreciated the cozy atmosphere of my single room and the free refreshments available in the reception area. Plus, the use of room codes meant I didn’t have to worry about losing keys.

    Not one thing! 😊.

    We had a fantastic experience at the Gilbert. the location was perfect, just a short walk from the nearby underground stations and major museums. our room was cozy and stylish. the staff were friendly and responsive, quickly addressing any concerns we had. additional perks like free coffee, tea, and filtered water made our experience even better.

    No fridge or ac in the summer 🥵.

    king size ensuite
    well-equipped
    entry difficulty
    no daily housekeeping

    Loved the king size ensuite—it was cozy and well-equipped for our couple's escape. 🌟 entry after 11 PM can be tricky without reading glasses. a small inconvenience with no daily housekeeping.

    Great location with a bright, clean room and a comfortable bed. While the digital check-in was a bit tricky and the bathroom felt small, the self-service aspect was manageable.

    the location was ideal, just a short walk to major attractions like hyde park and various museums. the staff were welcoming, and we especially appreciated the help we got with food storage and travel advice. our room was cozy, spotless, and featured a nice coffee machine. the lobby's coffee and tea station was a lovely perk, making us feel at home.

    All good! 😊.

    delicious waffles
    charming decor
    great location
    sweltering room
    cramped shower

    The waffles at breakfast were an absolute game-changer, fluffy and full of flavor! I also loved the lovely decor in the room. Plus, the location made hopping to nearby eateries like Five 25 and The Bombay Brasserie easy.

    The room was sweltering hot was good. With no air con and a squeaky fan to contend with, I was wishing for a cool breeze.

    The room cleaning policy is misleading, as there's an additional charge for service that isn't fully disclosed initially. The bathroom is cramped, with sliding doors not closing properly, leaving little space for comfort, and both the sink and toilet tend to clog frequently. Without air conditioning and a fan that barely helps, the rooms can get stuffy.

    housekeeping policy

    The room was well-equipped with modern amenities. The location was convenient for accessing various shops and cafes nearby, perfect for business lunches. The staff was friendly and helpful when I needed assistance .

    Housekeeping wasn't included and required prior notice for additional service.

    clean room
    fantastic fish
    confusing communication
    unexpected alarm
    carpeted floor

    Located in a quiet neighborhood, the hotel features clean rooms and a comfortable bed. An unexpected fire alarm at 2 AM caused chaos, leaving guests confused without clear communication from staff. While the towels were good, the carpeted floor might not appeal to everyone. The fish served at dinner was fantastic, showcasing quality in the dining experience.
