St Simeon

It's a very nice stay with good British breakfast everyday. Location is very good and convenient in a safe neighborhood. Daniel at the front desk is super friendly and provided the excellent services to us. We have followed his recommendations and had really good time in Londan. If you are lucky enough you may get a chance to meet the old gentleman (owner) who's very smart and kind too. The only minor issue was the lady (night shift?) who didn't want to help us at all to call the Hilton hotel in London STN airport to check my missing UK charger. It's not late (around 8PM) that night (should be our 1st night of the stay) but she directly told us to ask the front desk next morning... Eventually I got the helpul phone call from a nearby hotel.

We really liked the St. Simeon. Don't expect it to be like an American hotel with a huge bathroom and a pool. It has little rooms, eclectic art and twisty corridors. That's what makes it great--it's not trying to be anything other than a charming pensione in a Victorian era building. They've added TVs and have plenty of towels and other little amenities. If you love character and supporting independent businesses over corporate, cookie-cutter hotels, St. Simeon is a good choice. Really close to Earl's Court tube station (and Lady Diana's flat) and the staff was really nice. They served breakfast but we didn't make it down it time due to jet lag but they offered us coffee/tea because they felt bad we will missed it. We'd stay there again, definitely.

This is a wonderful hotel. The rate was very reasonable, so we were not expecting too much. To say we were agreeably surprised would be a major understatement. The room (both bedroom and bathroom) was spotless and nicely appointed, and the temperature was perfect. It got to freezing outside but we were always comfortable. The neighbourhood is very quiet and very safe: we walked back from the tube after 10 pm with no hint of any problem. The Gloucester Rd tube station is only about 5 minutes away on foot. The staff could not be more helpful. And, saving the best for last, they serve a full English breakfast, despite the website saying it's only continental (which they also have).

The staff were very helpful with directions and assistance. The room was basic, but with everything you required. It was actually quite, even though the room was at the front, only a faint sound of someone's TV - couldn't here the lift just outside our door. The breakfast was v. good esp. the eggs. The tomato were small & uncooked - could have done with large & cooked. The room could have been a bit cleaner, shower soap holder, scuff marks on wall, ripped lining on curtain. I would bring flip flops & or slippers as floor old and worn. Otherwise, for the money, great value - overall very pleasant, comfortable bed, friendly staff. Watch it when opening the sash windows, when high up and gusty!

Hotel located in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood, near the underground station that brings you to the city centre in about 10 minutes. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast in the morning and you can have tea and coffee all day long. The sink was very tiny, so it was easy to spill water when you used it.

Excellent value for money. Walking distance from tube. Safe and quiet surroundings although near to restaurants. Friendly staff, returned piece of clothing we forgot in our room. Luggage room very handy if you have to wait for transport.

the hotel is amazing, we stayed in the family deluxe mezzanine, a refurbished room, and it was super comfy, the heating worked just fine, the bed and bedding were super soft and it was really spacious, the staff is super friendly, I emailed them before my stay and they were always super helpful, the area felt really safe, it's close to two underground stations and a lot of good restaurants and a tesco express, the English breakfast is really good!! me and my family had a wonderful experience and would definitely go back there someday

Very friendly and helpful. Excelent free breakfast. We enjouyed our stay from the first minute we arrived and decided to come back next year. Nice neighbourhood and in a couple of minutes walk you find the Tube station, shops, pubs and restaurants. Perfect for a weekendtrip!

Clean rooms. Good breakfast. Best of all: the location A short distance to Gloucester road with great connections! The area is calm and great for families. Good restaurants nearby and a nice walk to Kensington garden/Hyde park.
