Generally ok

Comparing with other hotels within that area, the price of this hotel is quite attractive. I didn't have very high expctation and everything is acceptable to me. The building itself is a little bit old, but the internal decoration is ok. The staff is quite polite. The hotel staff said wireless lan is available, but I my netbook can't connect to the hotel's network during my 5 day stay. Have to go to a net cafe nearby. The hotel is very near to the underground station.

General Information

What to expect: This large, double-fronted Victorian hotel has a bright, modern feel, with up-to-date facilities, but still retains much of its original character. Situated in a quiet conservation area, the hotel is within walking distance of the Natural History, Science, and Victoria and Albert Museums, as well as the Earl's Court Exhibition Centre.

Insider tip: The Albert Memorial, commissioned by Queen Victoria in the 19th century to commemorate her late husband, Prince Albert, is just a 10-minute walk away in Hyde Park. An elaborate structure with various friezes and pillars of red granite, it has recently been restored to its original splendor and re-covered in gold leaf.
