Superb location, for Albert Hell, museums etc. Accommodation is a student hall (for Imperial College) out of term - therefore rather spartan (no TV) but perfectly functional, clean, and relatively cheap for this part of London. Useful bar and small shop on site.

Basic accommodation in great location

Great basic accommodation, perfect location for hyde park. Very reeaonably priced compared to other hotels in the area. Student accommodation so nothing fancy but had what we needed for a one night stay. Mattress was very firm. Nice setting with garden area in the square, handy shop downstairs.

The staff was very helpful and the accommodations were hotel-like despite it being a residence hall. The fire alarms truly do go off a lot! At least 3 times during my 7 day stay.

These are college dorms and should be considered in that regard. The only thing that makes this space a bit uncomfortable is the tendency for fire alarms to go off at any point and the lack of toiletries available (e.g., towels, drinking water, ice, and iron)

Close to the Tube, Museums and Hyde Park

Located just a short walk from South Kensington, with both a Tube station and museums, this a summer hostel. Just a block off Edgeware road, I found this a great place to stay. Close to Hyde park which is perfect for a morning walk or run. Room was basic, but clean. Small bathroom and a pretty good bed. No TV, but if you need it, bring a laptop and hook up to the wifi. In spite of being just a short distance from a busy street during the day, it was surprisingly quiet during the nights, and I could sleep with an open window.

Horrible experience

I was bitten by a bee when I am bathing. It was a horrible experience and the entrance is hard to find and no air condition. But the location is good anyway.
