Small but very comfortable and nicely decorated room, with well received extras (l'occitane toiletries, Nespresso machine, complimentary hot drinks brought to room on arrival). Lovely and very helpful staff. Very well located within just a few minutes walk of both Gloucester Rd and Earls Court tube stations, and lots of restaurants

Staff were really pleasant and make great efforts to talk and make sure everything was okay
The Hotel Xenia was able to accommodate me last minute when another hotel had some cleanliness issues. I'm SO glad I made the switch. I stayed for a week at Hotel Xenia, and the staff made me feel so welcomed and cared for. The location is perfect, with easy access to buses and the tube. I also loved being able to walk and run through Kensington Gardens with ease. Make sure to take advantage of the breakfast attached to the hotel! Some of the best baked goods I had on my trip.
The welcome my wife and I received when we arrived at the hotel for check-in was amazing, something like I’ve never experienced before. So friendly and all staff couldn’t do enough for us. Complimentary coffee was brought to our room by a lovely guy called Lit. Additional milk was delivered to our room within seconds. Thoroughly recommend this hotel mainly for its service, but also for its location.
Hotel Xenia was the perfect place for us! Each and every team member was so polite and attentive and made you feel quite welcome. The amenities were great, and the restaurant was sharp, with excellent food! The bed and bedding were sublime and hard to get the leave and get the day going!!
HIGHLY recommend staying here!
Lovely hotel with a good size room (for London standards). Close to trains, shops and restaurants, a good place to visit Kensington. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Beds super comfortable.
Lovely hotel in a great position on the Cromwell Road.
Staff are great.
Easy walking distance to many tourist attractions, museums, Royal Albert Hall, Knightsbridge and more.
Highly recommended.
This was our second stay at this hotel.
Great stay at Xenia! Staff is wonderful as is the breakfast. Convenient located near a central
Tube stop. Neighborhood is also very walkable with lots of dining options. I hope to go back
Soon!
Friendly and helpful staff. Great location. Clean and beautiful room. Easy to walk and also to catch the underground. We would love to stay here again.
The whole experience was extremely pleasant. Staff were well trained and everything was seamless. Room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The balcony was very welcome. It was noisy with the doors open but with the doors closed at night it was very peaceful. Highly recommend and will be going back.
I like people, who worked there. They tried to accommodate all our needs.
Very good breakfast. Room was little bit smaller, Ethen we expect, but it is London
Very friendly staff, the virgin experience day afternoon charcuterie with wine was lovely & the overnight stay was great too. We booked the small double which was tiny but had a comfortable bed & the shower was good so that’s all we really needed for our stay overnight in London
Such a great experience at Xenia! The staff were so accommodating and the hotel was very clean. The area and proximity to the tube was great. I will be back when I return to London!
