The hotel boasts a prime location that makes exploring Kensington a breeze, with easy access to various attractions and public transport. While the rooms are undeniably compact, I found them clean and well-kept. Service was commendable, especially the helpful staff who made me feel welcome throughout my stay. However, I was a bit underwhelmed by the room size and the limited beverage options in the room.

I had a mostly pleasant stay at the hotel with some excellent staff who truly made an effort to enhance my experience. The rooms were quite small but had clean linens and were tidy throughout my stay. The pool area was a great escape after a long day, but I found the extra charge for using the jacuzzi a bit surprising. Overall, it's a decent place for short stays, but there are some improvements needed in room size and Wi-Fi reliability.

While the rooms were comfortable and the housekeeping maintained a high level of cleanliness, I did find the staff service lacking during check-in, which was frustrating. The location near Kensington is fantastic for exploring, but the dining experience could use some improvement, especially regarding breakfast variety. Additionally, the fitness facilities were impressive, contributing positively to my stay.

I had a pleasant stay at the Holiday Inn Kensington High Street, which is conveniently situated just a short walk from the tube station and Kensington Palace. The room I stayed in was comfortable and quiet, though I noticed it could be a bit small, especially for two people. The breakfast was notably good with a pleasant variety, but I wished there were a few more amenities for rewards guests. Overall, a solid choice but perhaps not a top pick for a return visit.
