Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington

Very, very old and basic. Like it has never been upgraded for about 35 years, and amenities are 1 star only. It's only worth it if you can get it cheap, say hk$ 1300 per night just to wash and sleep. Anything more than that not value for money.

Location was perfect , almost quite place , clean , simple check in -out

The hotel is very good and is near to the metro station. However, the bathroom have cigarette smell.

City breaks had a great time

The room we had, 216, was "dated". With an a/c unit from the late 70s early 80s The bath/shower was very high to step into. Basin slower to empty than a politician keeping a promise and the plug needed resetting to flow out. The toilet was a handle flush which needed to be "pumped". We called maintenance as the only plug outlets in the room were set just above the floor and we could not use the kettle provided Two of the lifts were out of order for much of our stay causing us to walk down the stairs as by the time it came down from above in the m, there was no room left. Saying that, the issues were attended to and the staff were wonderfully courteous and helpful. Breakfast buffet was simple. Nothing flash but filling and acceptable. Would we stay again? Probably not as this is an instance where the staff are let down by the property.

Great location and although an older hotel, the room was good. Nice bed, decent size room, good breakfast and good rate. I would come here again for sure.
