We loved our stay SO much. It was the perfect location and the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. I do wish there had been a few more breakfast options, that was my only complaint! Would definitely stay here again.

The staff tried their best to accommodate our needs. They were very helpful. Our room was cleaned only once and it had to be requested. It was cleaned very well. But the room itself was small for a ten day stay. The bathroom shower curtain did not come down far enough and the floor was soaked after a shower. The location near Kensington Park was perfect for us. Breakfast was ample if simple but the fresh squeezed orange juice was terrific!

Very nice little spot. Quiet. But super close to all your needs. Made my first visit in London very smooth. Front desk is accommodating. No A/C in rooms but a fan is provided and the window opens. It never got brutally hot even in August. Highly recommend!

Our room was fine, except some of the outlets were for Indian plugs, which created an issue as my husband was unable to plug in his CPAP machine. They gave us an adapter that was Indian to European, which we made work. Everything is done through the Sonder app, but we were unable to request a room cleaning as that service “was not yet available”. The location was great, as transport, shopping and dining were all walking distance. The coffee machine was fantastic, but unnecessarily complicated.

If you'd like to stay in a hot, uneven shoebox this is for you. The Staff we dealt with were mostly exceptional. Needs a compendium to show where things are eg. The essentials were on level 1. Power sockets don't meet modern requirements. Requires A/C, sheles & rails in bathroom. Not handicapped friendly.

Wardrobe interior - couldn't access inside

Great place to stay in central London

I have stayed at this property three times. It is very convenient to the Albert Hall and Kensington Gardens. It’s very quiet and reasonably priced breakfast is included. Continental type I would recommend it. There is also a lift

Very pleasant stay, a great location, handy for tube stations and many great places to eat and drink. Walkable if you enjoy romping about London! Right on the door step and the park which is also pretty! Rom had adequate space and facilities for a short stay,

Great Kensington Hotel! Would stay again!

Beautiful hotel wonderfully located! Easy walk to museums, night life, restaurants. Longer walk to the tube, but manageable. AMAZING breakfast buffet! Staff is very helpful when they are onsite. Night number for assistance went unanswered. They are kind in letting people store their luggage, we used that and the staff was amazing! They let me check in a few hours early. Very kind.

It was amazing staying at Sonder. The room was very clean. Even though my room was on the basement level, it was surprisingly well-ventilated and felt quite comfortable. The location was perfect—being close to Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park made morning walks delightful. The breakfast was excellent, and I also loved how convenient it was to have a bustling area nearby. I would definitely love to stay here again on my next visit to London!

Our room was located basement. If I knew subject room is in basement, I would never book it. Deceptive description! Room was so small and dark. It feels like a cheap motel.

A small cheap hotel located close to what we needed but you get what you pay for. A tiny room, a lift that does not inspire confidence and little support from the few staff that are around.

The hotel is in a quiet area about 15 min walk from the tube. The room was clean and comfortable. I stayed in a single room and it was perfect for my needs. Staff were helpful when I needed their help. Breakfast had a nice choice of friut, breads & pastries, meat & cheese. I would stay again.

I am from the US so I based my decision to stay here on the pictures and description of the hotel and room, which are described exactly as is in person. My room was so cute and cozy! It was warm with a nice heater and an option to crack open my window, put the ceiling fan on and enjoy the nice chill of London weather! The staff were super friendly and offered help learning the Underground travel system. I strongly recommend a stay at Sonder!

I was turned away; had paid four nights in advance

Having paid for four nights up front it was very distressing to be turned away from the hotel, as it was getting dark, for not possessing a bank card (in the event of damage - despite offering a deposit ). I had to pay for another hotel - another four nights in advance. Three weeks later I am still awaiting a refund from Hotels.com Their chat people appeared to be very helpful but after three chats I am still awaiting my refund.
