Good location, questionable other things.
Good location hotel. Narrow stairs. No elevator to our room. Paper thin walls. Toilet takes 10-15 minutes to refill cisterne before can be used again. Surprise sur charge for “service” to tip staff added at check out. No mention of this at booking or checkin. Supposedly voluntary so I declined. Order only breakfast restaurant was slow to bring coffe and continental. No won’t be back.

Promised refund never appeared
Service at the hotel was slow in general.
But breakfast was appalling, firstly ignored over other guests. Food was slow to arrive, the drinks weren't even delivered - to the point was asked if we wanted more drinks when the first drinks hadn't even arrived. Simple requests like brown sauce took over 15 minutes to arrive and instead brown sauce was given. Orderd a croissant, waited 10 minutes to be told firstly it wasn't put through, then secondly that they ran out.
The room was tired. Mould along the bath seal, fabric wallpaper had questionable stains and was worn
Spoke to management on check out and was told a refund would be given but it would take time as it was booked via a third party , it's been nearly two months an no refund
Definitely not a five star hotel, a very tired four star in need of a refurbishment

The staff at the Pelham Hotel in Kensington was top notch! Thomas, the concierge, was incredible and went above and beyond. Location is impeccable with tube access across the street, bus access out the front door, and walking distance from many sites and wonderful restaurants

The Mews was an excellent suite for extra space, very nicely appointed. It is actually at the side of the hotel down a side alleyway and was surprisingly very quiet. our daughter loved the loft area with the second bed, but there are narrow stairs so not for those with mobility issues or very young kids.
The staff were very nice and helpful. The stairs to the Mews suite are very narrow so it’s difficult with larger suitcases. Kudos to the staff member who carried our luggage up!!
Breakfast was excellent! Upon our arrival some complimentary fruit and Chocolates awaited us which we demolished during our stay.
The surrounding area is extremely convenient for food choices, restaurants and access to the Tube and various museums.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Pelham.

The Pelham is a little slice of London living in what was once a townhouse in South Kensington. It's so charming and beautifully designed by one of the hotel world's most talented eyes - Kit Kemp.
If you're looking for a boutique hotel in one of London's best neighborhoods with walkable access to museums, restaurants, pubs, Hyde Park, the tube, then this is the spot.
