Everything was great. Really helpful staff, good sized rooms with good amenities. I’ve stayed in Kensington many times, but never here before, I think I was put off by the logo looking a little dated, it was never for specific reasons, that’s the only thing I can really think of. I only booked it because my usual go-tos were full, but in the future this will be my first choice.

Just spent nearly a week at the Copthorne Tara. Room was a bit shabby and dated ( although I don’t care about the latter), but clean. And for what I paid, the size of the room was great, and it was just a standard double. Staff helpful. Excellent location near the High Street Kensington Tube stop, and Hyde Park-Kensington Gardens, which is important to me because I love wandering through that park.

Clean room but needed some TLC decor wise, and shower clip broken. Bed very firm (fine for me, partner didn't like it). Some noise from train line below (but close to tube). Good breakfast selection and quality. Good location for RAH, Museums etc. close to lots of shops and restaurants.

this hotel has an excellent location, only about two blocks from the High St., Kensington tube station with plenty of restaurants and shopping within a short walk. It is also very close to Hyde Park and Kensington Palace. The only thing I would recommend is if the hotel add more outlets since everyone needs to charge their phones and tablets. I would recommend a multi outlet on the nightstand that separates the two beds. Other than that, I would highly recommend this hotel.
