The hotel offers a lovely room for a fixed price of £150, perfect for a short stay, although it felt a bit dusty initially. The service was fabulous, with friendly staff willing to assist. The location is awesome, with unique touches like a record player in the room and being close to Ladbroke Grove tube station. The dining experience, although cookie-less, was satisfactory. Overall, a quirky and lively spot in Notting Hill.

7.6/10

The hotel is in a lively area, spot on with a perfect view of Portobello Road. The rooms were lovely, making it perfect for a short stay, but there were dirty coffee grounds in the filter. The service was friendly and helpful but seemed a bit rushed trying to get everything in order. The location is awesome, especially for exploring Notting Hill, offering a unique experience with a record player and classic vinyls in the room. The dining experience would have been nice but lacked Bernese Fries. The facilities were well-equipped and satisfying.
