A great location at a great price

A great place to stay for the money as well as being only minutes walking distance from the major museums as well as The Royal Albert Hall. Spacious rooms and helpful staff. I would be happy to stay there again.

Okay stay

Pros - good location, very clean and modern Cons - room very basic, no amenities, bed uncomfortable. Expensive for student halls of residence.
John, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Great service

Service was excellent; rooms were clean; the only reason I’m giving 3 stars is that the building is older, and the fire alarm is so sensitive that it goes off even if one takes a warm shower.
Kate, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent Value

Perfect for a trip to the Proms. We weren’t in the room much as we were off exploring and as such, it had everything we really needed. It was very clean and the staff were great.
Luis Ernesto, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

So close to the Albert Hall

I have stayed at Princes Gardens several times when attending the BBC PROMS at The Albert Hall. It is only a step or two away and the little park it overlooks makes for a pleasant place to sit if you have time

4/10 Fair

Good location but hostle feels

Was mold in the shower, sanity towels in the bin from a previous guest I assume. You have to book parking 7 days before visit! No information on that from hotels.com
Adam, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

This is not a hotel.

This is not a hotel. This place was advertised as a 4 star hotel. It was a dormitory. I was surprised and quite disappointed because I thought I was booking a hotel not a summer accommodation in a dormitory. On top of it we were given a handicap room to stay at without a door handle and a proper bathroom. It was very disappointing experience. The only good thing was a location.
Magdalena, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Shocking

Shocking from arriving to leaving 2 days later, took over 30 minutes stood in queues for room key, once got key opened room door to a smell, didnt sleep in bed had to sleep on top of quilt, shower not been cleaned
Samuel, 2-night trip

Noisy nearby Prince's Gardens

The noise problem at night was made by Summer Programme teenage students who ignore security guards to shout and scream and make Tic Toc videos in the Prince's Garden until the early hours. At 1:30 am, I asked to be moved to a quieter room, but none was available. Got to sleep about 2:30 am. If you want to sleep well, stay somewhere else!
Patrick, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Steer clear!

Gave me a key at reception. 10 minute walk to the room to find a woman in my bed. Had to walk back to be dealt with by a very rude receptionist.
Terry, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Uni halls

I wish it had been clear this is student accommodation, initially though I had been scammed as couldn’t find princes gardens. Only went into the uni halls because of the photo that I had to check. The was a huge line to check in. Staff were very friendly. The room was very very odd, bed in the middle of the room, w Bathroom appeared to have been, except the floor which had multiple pubic hairs scattered around.
Carla, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

This isn’t an hotel by my definition. Student accommodation that’s hired out to the public out of season Small uncomfortable double bed. Cord carpet floor tiles. No as advertised
Robert, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not a hotel

This is uni accommodation. I booked this as it was advertised as a hotel. When we arrived we were shocked that it was uni accommodation and this is not made known on the listing. No amenities - not even a hair dryer or mini fridge to store food/drinks?? How they can charge over £150 a night is beyond me. This is not a hotel!
