Pretty much everything was fine. Except :

The concierge and front desk people were fantastic. They spent time going over the different room options and showed us the ones we were interested in booking. All of the staff were friendly, professional and helpful. The location is right by the Gloucester Road Station and a 5 minute walk to Hyde Park. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property.
