“High quality small London Hotel the best”
Firstly my stay lived up to the reason I selected it in the first place for central location, tube stops x2 a stones throw away and the pricepoint. It exceeded my expectations with the quality of clean, comfortable and tasteful accomodation, even though small, with a window I could partially open a… more

“Lovely little spot for visiting London/Notting Hill area!”
I’m super pleased with this hotel. We had a problem right up front when we got there and they went out of their way to take care of it right away for us. There are a lot of stairs. Just be prepared for that. Otherwise, this is a very lovely hotel!

“Lovely hotel”
The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The hotel room was perfect. The only downside was that it was on the fifth floor, and we had to climb six flights of stairs in a very hot stairwell. Unfortunately, the room itself was also around 35°C during the night, but of course the hotel can't … more

Key features of the moderation of reviews
There is an automatic system that detects offensive language, in which case the review will not be published. If an owner reports one of the reviews, the review will be re-evaluated and, if it fails to comply with our content standards, it will be taken down.
Our criteria for collecting guest reviews
After getting home from the trip booked with us, the customer will receive an email asking them to review different aspects of each of the services booked. The system only allows the booking holder to complete this review and only once.
When will my review appear on the website?
Reviews typically take less than 24 hours to appear on our website. The process may take longer if our team of moderators have to examine the review in more detail.
How long will my review stay on the website?
Once it has been published, your review will automatically appear in the summary of reviews and if it is considered a featured review (based on publication date, length and quality of content), the complete review will also appear. Said review will not appear or will disappear from the system if it contains offensive language or if it is reported.
Can I get a reward for my opinion?
No. Reviews written in exchange for personal rewards such as gifts, services, or money will be taken down.
Can a review be edited?
No, once a review has been written, it cannot be edited. If you want it taking down, you can ask to have it deleted and not republished again.
Will my review appear on other websites or publications?
Once published, all or some of the reviews written by our members may be used on some of our partner sites or in promotional material in general.
If I write a review about a service, can the provider contact me about it?
No, as the personal data of the booking holder writing the review will not be shared with any service providers being reviewed. In the featured reviews shown, only the booking holder's first name will appear, meaning that there's no way that the service provider can contact you.
