The location was great. South Kensington is a convenient station for going anywhere, and there are many restaurants in the area so you won't have any trouble finding something to eat. The hotel has a nice interior and atmosphere, and the hospitality was excellent.

Stayed here for third time on recent London trip to attend Wimbledon. It is a beautiful small boutique hotel with the most wonderful interior decor by Kit Kemp. Close to train station and lots of interesting venues within walking distance. The staff are friendly and helpful however when we visited they needed more staff at breakfast as service was very slow particularly for coffee and refills. The bedrooms are comfy with lovely bright bathrooms. Room service is excellent. There is no tea/coffee machine in room but an honesty bar in lounge for all drinks. The weather was hot but you can open the window which is a bonus if u don’t like air conditioning. The hotel is on a quiet street and has a lovely garden. Look forward to staying there again

The Number Sixteen Hotel is located in South Kensington very close to the tube and walking distance to a number of cafes. The decor is eclectic and interesting. Staff very helpful. I was located on the third floor. This floor was not accessible by elevator. The elevator did not go beyond the second floor. After getting to the second floor and walking down a long corridor, you encounter a very steep narrow flight of stairs to the third floor! I imagine in years gone by it was where the servants slept! Once I had made it up the stairs my door was literally and step away from the top of the stairs - a dangerous spot when exiting the room. The room was beautifully decorated - very comfortable bed but oh so tiny! The bathroom again was tiny, when sitting on the toilet my legs were under the wash basin! Heaven help a large person - they most likely wouldn’t be able to use the facility. No fridge, no space other than the floor for your suitcase. Very disappointing! I overheard a couple of people asking to be moved to a lower floor mainly to avoid the steep staircases! I would recommend requesting either the first or second floors only.

Having been a neighbour to this hotel for over 25 years, I wanted to have British tea afternoon with a friend at No 16. We have been ejected rather abruptly by the reception staff insisting that only guests could access the hotel. This is stupid and wrong as I actually had many coffees, lunches, meetings at the hotel over the years. .. unless the rules recently changed, which is even more stupid.
