We had a great stay! The room was always clean and the staff was super helpful and friendly. My only complaint is that the breakfast is a bit simple with no hot food. We had a fantastic stay otherwise! I also like how close you are to different tube stations and the neighborhood is so charming.

Small, cosy room on the lower ground floor. The double bed is a small double bed. Reception and bar staff were professional and friendly and everything was spotless. Great location too.

I can’t believe how uncomfortable my stay was. It was 5 degrees outside in November, yet my room felt like it was in the middle of summer. And the worst part? There was no actual thermostat. Just an old, outdated control unit that didn’t do anything. Huge red flag. I tried everything, opening the windows, fiddling with the old panel— but the room stayed insanely hot. Sleeping was nearly impossible. This was a really disappointing experience, and until they update their HVAC system so guests can control their own room temperature, I definitely won’t be back.

This Hotel was in a great location to the Tube and it was also very walkable through Kensington Park. The room was very clean and comfortable. The included breakfast was very good. We had a daily cleaning service for our room. I would highly recommend The Phoenix Hotel for a stay in London.

Reception entrance is very modern and stylish. My room was ok but very hot and humid in the evening. I had a fan but it wasn’t working properly so they replaced it with an old school van and it was a lot better. The lift was very slow and took too long to come. Breakfast options were ok, could be better. Was abit of a pain to get an uber to my locations, but I suppose that was because it was during the carnival period.
