Hotels near The Serpentine, London

I have stayed in the Piccadilly Circus Zedwell and for the same price has considerably more to offer. This is a room only where as Piccadilly has a cafe, gym, ironing facilities. Important things for those traveling on business. In terms of room. It is big enough, clean and most importantly comfortable and quiet. No noise or disturbance you normally get from a central London hotel room.

Absolutely loved it! The location is relatively quiet, surrounded by consulates and Hyde Park, making it very safe. Getting around is super convenient with both the subway and bus nearby. You've got the Natural History Museum and V&A close by, Imperial College is right across from the hotel, and the Royal College of Music and Royal Albert Hall are just a short walk away. It's so handy to catch a great concert and then stroll back to the hotel.

I stayed at Smart Hyde Park View Hostel for two nights in a 6-bed dorm with a private bathroom. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable enough for a short stay. Having a private bathroom inside the room was very convenient and it was kept reasonably clean. The location is one of the best parts of this hostel. It is right next to Hyde Park and close to Queensway and Bayswater underground stations, which made it very easy to get around London and visit major attractions. The staff were friendly and check-in was smooth. Overall, it’s a good budget-friendly option in central London if you are looking for a simple and comfortable place to stay. I would consider staying here again.

Hotel is showing its age and rally needs a revamp….room amenities limited not biscuits with the tea and coffee, limited milk Hot water takes a long time to heat up from sink tap I let it run for 3-5 mins before it got hot No iron and ironing board Very noisy out side with deliveries very early in the morning Breakfast is over priced for what is on offer Limited staff on duty - only one at breakfast time Corridors are like rabbit warrens

The hotel was in a great location, a quick walk from Kensington High Street tube, and a pleasant 20mins walk to Notting Hill. The hotel itself in entering was very pleasant, looked inviting (with a Starbucks to one side but still within the same atmosphere and decoration) The staff were all friendly, concierge being the most willing and happy to help. The room was a bit disappointing. Appeared very grey and dark on entrance, but everything was clean had what you needed. TV was opposite a small settee, but far more comfortable to sit in the bed so the tv was across to the right, feel the room was too small to have a settee/sitting area as it was immediately next to the door. Didn’t feel inviting. But after the initial disappointment it didn’t need to be much more for our needs. We then used the pool area. Again a bit like the rooms this is a tired looking area, the pool sides stained and peeling bits here and there. The hot tub and steam room were both closed, but swam a few lengths and then used the sauna which was within the changing room area. Sauna was good hot enough too! We were going to have room service as a bit of a novelty, but thought the bar area looked nicer to sit for an hour or so so had a meal there. This was the biggest disappointment and extremely over priced. I was possibly unlucky and ordered the wrong thing, but would not eat here again. I ordered ‘Crushed avocado on a toasted bruschetta with slow roasted tomatoes’ and a side of chunky chips. This can as a dollop of cheap guacamole on a slice of french basic baguette with half a cherry tom on top, 3 of these! I personally can’t eat guacamole on its own so had to scrape most of it off to then eat the bread (and only did because I was by then hungry) Besides that I would stay again but would rather not have paid the price we did.

Close to the underground and the Heathrow express 15 minutes and you are at terminal 2 so picked for these reasons. The room was good and clean. Service was ok, we asked for more water and we had to go down and get it after 45 minutes as we did not need any room service while there for the 3 days just some more water. Would have to say the person we dealt with we learning and guessing he forgot. But close to the city and easy to train or walk to a lot of places. Hyde park is down the road and a nice wee stroll.

Cleanliness: Found some small ants in the bathroom and kitchen. Facilities: The wooden floors in the room were quite noisy when walked on, and the soundproofing wasn't great. Service: My first time in London, and how lucky I was to find this hotel! Wonderful, safe, and convenient location! It's just a 5-10 minute walk to the Underground, supermarket, and shopping!! Yuli, Nattie, Natalia, and Alina always had a big, lovely smile and were so friendly, patiently and kindly helping customers (myself included)!! I definitely recommend this hotel!!

Location is amazing, right in the centre underground, food, shops all within walking distance. The capsule room itself is clean, mattress comfy, nice lighting and big mirror and sufficient hooks to hang stuff. Room is very quiet and surprisingly blocks out sound so great for a quiet good sleep even in the mornings when people are packing and moving around. Love that they have a fan in the room that is great to keep air circulating but can get a bit hot but lifting the shutter door a few inches helps. Although good hook space not great for someone with more than a backpack as there is no place to put a suitcase near you. Although check out is 10am the cleaners rush and can end up clearing and cleaning your room before you are even ready to check out yet. Check in progress is supposed to be easy but in trying to make things easier they just made more unnecessary steps. Like you can check in online but still have to check in when you arrive? There is security at the door at all times which feels safe as you have to confirm you have a room key before they let you into the building. Shared bathroom is close by to the room, showers are great plenty of hot water, sufficient space to put your stuff and hang stuff, toilets lack hooks and insufficient sink space compared to showers and toilets. No room to place essentials when using the sink and although they try cleaning the shared bathroom is lacking just due to the amount of people having to share that one bathroom. I would say at least 3 rooms have access to that one shared bathroom and each of those big rooms can fit 30+ people if full. Overall for a short overnight trip I would definitely stay again just due to comfort and location.

My passport and wallet were stolen shortly after I arrived in London. I complained to the hotel about it, and they were very comforting and even upgraded our room. The service was excellent, and the breakfast was quite good too. The surrounding area felt safe, and there's a direct bus to the city center.

The location of the hotel is good. The facilities are too old and congested. Bath room set up is poor and water pressure is very weak. Not comfortable. Access at corridor is difficult. Luckily the hotel is willing to change room following our requests.
