Pros: The hotel's very central and a walking distance from many attractions - even in the cold winter weather. Museums, Harrods, high-end shopping and parks are all very near. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly, available 24/7. We had an early flight back so checked out of the room and left early (6am) - we were greeted upon departure with take-away coffee and tea, along with fruits and pastries. Literally left good taste in our mouths as we left the hotel. We'll surely return to the Thompson on our next visit to London!
Cons: The room as several articles which seem complimentary (such as USB cable, etc.) which upon checkout apparently cost quite a lot (we were charged 10 GBP for the cable). Continental breakfast is not diverse - just a few pork cold-cuts, a couple of cheeses, some juice, coffee, pastries etc. We asked for a few slices of tomato and cucumber and were charged 4 GBP for them.
"Located in London City Centre, this guesthouse is within a 15-minute walk of Kensington High Street, Natural History Museum and Kensington Gardens.

Pros: Reception area and hotel restaurant very nice and stylish, very friendly and helpful staff
Cons: Room was no more than average. Bathroom was very modern and nice. The room we were given was on one of the below ground floors, meaning we had no windows in the room or mobile phone reception. The main issue for me, the walls are VERY thin and everything from adjacent rooms is easily heard. The bed in our room also was very squeaky with any slight movement.

Pros: I will not book a room in this hotel again because, having paid 200 pounds per night: - It took me half an hour to have a mediocre shower since the fresh water hardly run through the pipes (despite the washroom being recently refurbished). - The room was very noisy (street cars and doors slapping all night). - The complimentary breakfast (I paid for) was ridiculous. No salty/warm food, only some fresh fruit (which was good) and industrial pastries (along with the standard drinks, of course). R. Arranz (14/11/14)

Pros: Location-Good breakfast-clean
Cons: The hotel was under major renovation which Hilton did not warn us about. While the hotel room was slightly larger than our queen bed, the only window was covered up with a plastic vinyl so you could not look out. When I removed the vinyl, there was a tarp hanging in front of all the windows along with scaffolding. The work was done during the day...loud. When I asked for a room on the other side of the building, they told me those rooms were very loud and sleeping would be difficult. I paid for 3 nights and used my points for one night. What a huge disappointment. They only comped us one breakfast. I felt like we were in a closet with no windows. On a positive note, the folks working the desk were at least friendly, but keeping a happy customer was somewhat lacking.

Pros: The best part was location: one block from Earl's Court station and lots of restaurants nearby. The staff were very helpful and gave me a very slightly larger room as the other was so small and hospital-like that I didn't think I could sleep in it. Breakfast was good, a large spread in a large room.
Cons: The room, a single, was a veritable cubicle. Just enough room to pull the small suitcase past the bed. For my ipad, wifi seemed to be intermittent. That may not have been true of other people's devices.

Pros: location convenient for walking and underground; staff friendly, helpful, very hard-working in breakfast area; breakfast was great; rooms clean, functional but tight - OK for adults, wouldn't work for children. Price and style are typical of IBIS and we like the simplicity, no-frills style.
Cons: Very narrow upstairs hallways; particle-board side of bathtub was water-damaged; carpeting in hallways didn't fit, frayed on edges; TV remote didn't work,needed new battery; first room we were given had bad sewage smell from bathroom and we were given new room. We wondered how well the place is maintained - cleaning staff keep sheets & bathroom clean, but the infra-structure is not so good.
