The staff was very helpful & kind.
The hotel rooms are a little tired and that is the only reason for any negative to say.
We’re generally a fan of Hilton hotels however this one needs a little tlc, location wise it’s excellent right next to Shephard’s bush tube, Westfield shopping and a short walk from Kensington gardens, however the rooms need modernising as there are no usb points, our plug sockets by the desk were actually pushed into the wall, the shower was grubby with age and if you’re a tall person of around 6,2 in the particular room we were in you are showering with your head constantly at an angle, this does however seem to be reflected in the price.
Tired, dates and run down property, tiny rooms and bathrooms , very basic facilities, more of a 2-3 star hotel

Wonderful place to stay when you’re using Le Shuttle.
Opposite experience of a hotel being a place of re
Checked into a room with unbelievably loud maintenance drilling in adjacent room from 9am.
The hotel didn't inform ahead and rented out a room knowing well that from 9am,no guest can sleep in it.
Although there are small signs the hotel is showing its age, our stay was very comfortable. Great staff, good dining options and comfortable bedding. Just 8 minutes walk to Westfield London for great shopping and food. Well located between Holland Park tube and Sheperds Bush tube and overground. Value for money is excellent.
