Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and comfy, and I loved that they opened onto the courtyard. However, the tables were very sticky. The service was friendly, but I felt they could have added more tables and chairs in the courtyard. The location was excellent, near the railway station and not far from Kingston town. Unfortunately, the dining experience was chaotic and definitely not good value for money.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable, and the staff was very helpful and friendly. The location was great for exploring the local area, but the dining experience was just average. Overall, it offered good value for the price.
The hotel had some positives like a pleasant and comfortable room, but overall fell short of 4-star quality. The location was convenient with easy access to nearby attractions. The dining options were limited and not impressive.
The hotel felt very overpriced for what it offered, with dark and cramped rooms lacking natural light and basic amenities. The location was convenient for public transport but seemed a bit outside the main city area. The dining experience was subpar with poor quality food and lack of notification about special events. However, the service was polite and accommodating, standing out among the disappointing aspects.
The hotel offers plenty of room for 2 adults and a teenage boy, but the rooms looked tired and shabby with torn curtains, a dirty toilet basin, and hair on the bathroom floor. The service was extremely helpful, especially at reception, where they quickly moved us to a nicer room. However, there was an incident of staff walking into our room early in the morning. The location had some drawbacks like outdated decor and long check-in times, but it was warm and had a festive atmosphere. The dining experience was adequate but could be improved. Despite the issues, the facilities were decent, though not ideal, with noisy fan heaters.
The hotel's location was perfect for my needs, close to Richmond park, Kingston town centre, and the river Thames. It had some minor upkeep issues in the decor, but overall, it was a suitable choice. Unfortunately, booking during the Christmas party season had its drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient, with a lovely seating area overlooking the central gardens, ideal for relaxing. However, the rooms needed some maintenance, particularly with a noisy fire door and cleanliness issues on the carpet. The dining experience was pleasant, and the service was consistently friendly and helpful, although the room temperature was a bit uncomfortable.
Arriving at this hotel, I found my room to be on the smaller side, but it was clean and had a complimentary bottle of water waiting for me. Unfortunately, the loud party noise was a major drawback, making me question the room allocation choices by the management.
The hotel offers spacious and spotlessly clean rooms, but the service was unwelcoming and made me feel uncomfortable. The location was ideal for my visit, but the dining experience was generally poor. The facilities were decent but could be improved.
The hotel had spacious rooms with a balcony, measuring 25 sq meters, and a good quality shower over the bath. However, the noise from the nearby car company next to our balcony was a downside. The service was extremely helpful and approachable, with staff paying attention to our needs. The location was fantastic, with easy access to Kingston town center. The dining experience was satisfactory but could be improved, and only had breakfast available. Overall, it was a mixed experience with some positives and negatives.
