"The Webster just opened in Oct 2026, so my stay was within the first month of opening. As expected, the bed was brand new and super comfortable, the room and en suite were newly installed and clean. The staff tried to be very friendly but in my opinion, they were too artificially friendly and have missed the mark. For example, upon check in, a member of staff insisted on showing me to my room’s floor. The elevator was small and trying to maintain small talk after a busy day at work was no fun...

Top Hayward Gallery Hotel Reviews

The Chesterfield Mayfair

London City Centre

10/10 Excellent

This is a quaint hotel. The bathrooms are brand new, but the rest of the hotel has an English feel that welcomes you. The elevators are very small, but we never had any problems using them. There is a wonderful bar and an excellent restaurant. The staff could not be nicer. We had a dedicated doorman who helped me in and out of taxis. We loved every minute of our stay and would highly recommend it.

10/10 Excellent

Wow this hotel is absolutely stunning! I was super impressed. First time to London and we opted to stay in a quieter area with a local feel and this was it! Traveled with my friend and we rented bikes most days from just around the corner and biked all around London. Kensington is just so lovely. We got the bedroom with two twin beds. Although the room layout was small (European size), the beautiful decor and gorgeous windows took away from that. The bathroom was my favorite. So aesthetically...
