Overall
8(2792)7/10 Good
I recently stayed at this hotel and was very impressed with its excellent location, which made exploring the area easy and enjoyable. The staff were genuinely warm, professional, and attentive, adding a very positive touch to the overall experience.
That said, there were a few drawbacks worth noting. The room had an unpleasant smell, similar to sewage, which lingered throughout my stay and made the environment less comfortable. Additionally, the soundproofing between rooms was quite poor—noise from neighboring rooms, especially if they have children or stay up late, can be clearly heard. If you're a light sleeper, you may want to bring earplugs or prepare for interrupted rest.
Parking is available, which is a plus, but the entrance and exit are extremely narrow—tight enough that you’ll either need to drive a compact car or risk scratching your wheels on the way in or out. Maneuvering in and out requires extra caution, especially for larger vehicles.
Overall, while the service and location stand out as strong positives, the room condition, noise levels, and parking setup need improvement to offer a more comfortable and stress-free stay.

10/10 Fantastic Experience
What a great experience! When I booked our stay, I based in on the generally good reviews and nice rooms (so clean and comfortable), but they went above and beyond. They gifted our toddler son a beautiful bag of activities (drawing book, pencils, etc...), toys, and sweets. It was such a welcomed delight after a long day of travel.
Furthermore, after running into delays and the airport and traffic on the way into the city, we had to cancel our original dinner reservations. The hotel restaurant was fully booked, but they found space in the bar to accommodate our entire family.
Appreciated the wonderful customer service! Would highly recommend for travelling with kids.

9/10 Very comfortable, civilized and enjoyable.
Room was perfectly quiet - no noise whatsoever. Breakfast was well organized, quiet, spacious seating, coffee was good and buffet was more than adequate. Adequate number of lifts to room floors, never had to wait and lifts were fast. Housekeeping was excellent.
Location of hotel is perfect for public transport, taxis, parks, shopping, sightseeing.

10/10 A Perfect place to stay
This is the first time we have stayed at the Royal garden but it won’t be the last. The level of service was superb from check in which was seamless to the care and attention throughout our stay. Our room was roomy, excellently equipped and had amazing views over the park and Kensington Palace. Breakfast was one of the best we have ever experienced and the quality, selection and service was outstanding. We are involved in the travel industry and own a bespoke travel company working in Southern Africa and work hard to find hotels with these standards. Well done to everyone one at the Royal Garden.

9/10 Would definitely recommend! :)
The room was quite bigger than expected. Everything was very clean, and the room service was great. Hotel location is amazing, right next to the Hyde Park, and within 3-5 minute walk away from High Street Kensington underground station. A lot of nice restaurants, good breakfast places and shopping stores in the area as well.
Bonus point for the bellboys. They were extremely friendly and helpful during check-in and out as well.

9/10 Magnificent. The Goldilocks vacation.
The location was perfect close enough to amenities, far enough away not to feel claustrophobic. The views of the park were exceptional and the room was lovely and quiet. Staff were attentive but not too fussy and always helpful and happy. The hotel had a wonderful balance of functionality, beauty and comfort.
Breakfast was sublime, my son was in awe of the choice and quality as were we all.

10/10 Amazing Experience
My wife and I have stayed at the Royal Garden Hotel many times, a first class five-star hotel, serving first class food served and run by first class staff, our room overlooked Hyde Park, as farmers this was very special, it felt like we were back on our farm in Somerset.
A special mention to Joyce who served our breakfast in our room and Jason the doorman who were both brilliant, both a credit to the hotel.

The hotel is in a great location right next door to Kensington Gardens which are beautiful to walk in. Rooms are spacious, clean and very comfortable. The breakfast was excellent.

8/10 Excellent location
The main beds are quite firm, however the children's put up beds are deliciously soft and comfortable.
Superb breakfast! The whole dining room staff are attentive and this was the highlight of our experience at the hotel.
I would also like to put a mention in for the welcome we received the moment we pulled up. The front of house are impeccable.

10/10 Excellent pianist (Mauro) at the hotel's piano bar made our night
We didn't stay at the hotel but visited the hotel's piano bar one evening. It was excellent and we had a great time! Mauro, the incredibly talented pianist, absolutely made our night. He took requests and effortlessly switched between genres. Would very much recommend!

8/10 Great hotel in a fantastic location
Very nice hotel in a great location. Level of service was excellent. The room was a bit small - tricky to walk round the bottom of the bed without bumping into furniture. Service charge on the prepaid self service breakfast was a little “cheeky”
