Room was clean, great location and very friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast and room good for a couple of nights in London. Only negative comment relates to the room being quite hot and the bathroom needing a bit of tlc. However, everything was clean and functional. Would stay again and recommend.

I have used the K Hotel before, located a few minutes walk from the Gloucester Road Underground.
Booked here as this is a pleasant 15-minute brisk walk to the iconic Royal Albert Hall.
The rooms always look immaculate, this was double room, on the 4th Floor, spacious and modern lighting, the room has drinks station to make tea/coffee, a safe and spacious hanging, the bathroom is always warm thank to the heated towel rail, with large shower, that has rainfall and handheld modes.
Locally there are a number of restaurants and amenities, as well
with a great range of shops only minutes away.

In terms of cleaning and location it was perfect. Breakfast must be diversified and qualified more and slippers must be placed in the room. Bidet should be rechecked especially for efficiency because ı was not able to use it properly. Thanks all.

Nice hotel - room was great. Clean and spacious however as my room was facing Cromwell road - and the window didn’t have any black out curtains it was a bit noisy!

Pros:
Air condition is excellent
They had a room available and let us check in early
Cons:
The bathrooms are visibly moldy, so much so that I felt sick the entire time I was there and my son's skin condition flared up.
We switched rooms and they said they'd inspected the new one for mold... but the ceiling in the bathroom was speckled in mold and the floors and shower were also very gross.
If you have any issues with mold, proceed with extreme caution. It's one of the moldiest hotels I've stayed in.

The room was clean and tidy, the staff were really kind and wanted to help as much as possible.
The road is quite loud outside so the addition of air con so i could be cool without opening the window was much e-welcomed.

The room was far too warm, even with the window open it was uncomfortably warm. The bed was a little uncomfortable too, the mattress was too soft which meant I kept slipping off the edge in the night. The staff were friendly and welcoming though and the hotel is in a great location with many local amenities.

Room was very clean and was meeting/exceeding of expectations with a really classic london view with an opening window! Check in was incredibly efficient if done online as I had done but was inconvenient for people who hadn’t and were causing a queue so would recommend you follow their advice! Good facilities and very attractive area close to gloucester road and south kensington station etc. Would recommend
