Rooms small, very hot and poorly ventilated. Breakfast very limited. Staff very helpful. ##### James Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Paul Jun 9, 2025 Great location, nice breakfast, friendly staff. Overall would recommend this hotel, if you are looking for a super location in South Kensington close to the museums and shopping this is the place to stay. On the downside, no AC, even in cooler months higher floors are very poorly ventilated, if you can sleep in 25c no problem ##### Paul Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lauren May 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean, comfortable and great location. ##### Lauren Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Marion Apr 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I enjoyed my stay at Sonder. The area is really quiet and safe and super close to public transports and restaurants. The rooms are small but it’s enough for one person. ##### Marion Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Maddison Sep 22, 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Honestly, for the price I paid for this hotel - it was not great. My room looked nothing like the pictures and I was placed on the ground floor in the tiniest room with hardly any natural light. I asked to be moved upstairs and they said that it’s better to stay on the ground floor because the building has no AC and that the heat rises. So just take note of that too. I would recommend the Mornington Kensington Hotel a couple blocks away and right by Earls Court service. ##### Maddison Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Sep 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Amenities Good for a night stay but is a no thrills Sonder. Not common as most Sonder venues are pretty solid options. Good safe and quiet location however and close to stations for easy transport. Would stay again ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ian Jul 1, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### Gilbert Hotel (Sonder) Nice friendly staff. Breakfast was simple but good. Room (512) was tiny. No AC (a small fan provided) over a couple of hot days in London. Shower was adequate but not powerful… probably just as well as the shower cubicle was so small I couldn’t get out of the jet to wash / lather so an ordeal rather than a pleasure. One of the two downlighters was out in the bathroom. Good position close to Gloucester Road tube. Overall if it had been £120 a night I wouldn’t have a problem, but it was £500 for two nights and just not good enough. ![Street scene](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3ae4624a-0c88-4e01-b0b9-734c2dec15ac-1751351171043.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Harrington Gardens ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9d9f1a54-55ac-4116-b570-40706211a635-1751351171277.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Ian Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Peter Jun 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Generally nice Hotel, the rooms are all well equipped but it's worth mentioning that room cleaning has to be ordered and paid separately. ##### Peter Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth Jul 31, 2024 Everything! ##### Elizabeth Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Laini Aug 30, 2024 Great property but the amenities not available as described and the atmosphere inside hotel could have been made and decorated better in terms of adding more picture and making it more charming and welcoming ##### Laini Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Umar Aug 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Room comfort #### Okay but lacks in important areas Hotel is in a nice area. Close to Gloucester Road Station which makes the rest of london very easy to access and walkable for those who like walking. The room was fine and had everything you would need for a short stay BUT the hotel has no AC and refused to provide a fan so on a hot day, this was a shockingly bad stay. ##### Umar Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Peter Jul 3, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bad place Rooms small, strange place with staff that didn’t care at all ##### Peter Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Beth Nov 1, 2024 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities The room was very basic, the fan didn’t work so it got quite hot. ##### Beth Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Albie Apr 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Lovely place! The building was beautiful and we felt very welcome when we arrived - the staff were brilliant! They were very happy to help and answer any questions. We booked a queen room and were under the impression from the pictures we had a window that looked out on to the street, however we had a basement apartment and very little view, but this didn't bother us too much as the room was lovely. The bed was very comfy - there was a few areas that were starting to look a little tired and the table was stained and hidden by a tissue box, so would definitely be one to flag if we were to stay again. All round lovely place and in the perfect area for access to lots of great places to eat, drink and enjoy! ✨ ##### Albie Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Borre Oct 8, 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Something should have twigged when the write up said Ground Floor room. It was actually in the basement (yes, you hit B on the elevator to get there). An opaque window at the bottom of a light well is still a basement. I checked the pictures for room layout, and nowhere was there an indication that you could not walk around the bed. You can't. Both ends are jammed against walls. The very small bathroom's layout is not great. Its difficult to turn the shower on before getting into it because as soon as you open the door you flood the bathroom. The bathroom lighting is such, that you face is shaded in the mirror making it difficult to shave, or if female, put your makeup on. I travelled extensively in my last couple of years if work, and basement rooms in hotels is a new one on me... ##### Borre Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Charlotte Oct 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Das Zimmer selbst war sauber. Im Badezimmer leider zu wenig Möglichkeiten um Handtücher aufzuhängen. Die Dusche war sehr unkomfortabel. Das Frühstück lässt ebenfalls zu wünschen übrig. Sehr geringe Auswahl und sind die Sachen einmal leer werden sie nicht wieder aufgefüllt. ##### Charlotte Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Daniel Aug 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Far too hot in the room, no air con, but the same cost as a hotel with air con. No fridge in the room either. The app has stopped working since the take over from Marriot Bonvoy too?! (maybe a coincidence) Lovely hotel otherwise, clean and friendly staff. ##### Daniel Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Emma Aug 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nöjd Duschen var extremt liten, och det var smala korridorer, men annars ett stort fint rum med soffa och kaffe/te på rummet. ##### Emma Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ruweida Jul 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Decent but tiny. Clean but no airconditioning. Friendly staff. No amenities really. London overall is really overpriced and no value for money. The same prices in the Middle East, Turkey, East Asia, Africa, even South America will get you infinitely more. It's becoming too much. ##### Ruweida Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lorna Jul 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Well worth it. Was a little apprehensive to book this “concept” hotel but need not have worried. Entry by access code, room entry by Bluetooth on phone, etc., was not even sure if there would be a human present. Room was small but perfectly formed, breakfast was self service. All of which presumably helps keeps the price down. Rooms not cleaned, nor towels refreshed, on a daily basis but nor would they be at home!! Lobby is actually manned 24 hours. In short, we were delighted with this lower priced option in a great area, 5 mins from Gloucester Road subway. Will use again. ##### Lorna Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Apr 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Convenient hotel in a quiet pleasant area of Londo We didn't need any special help so the fact that everything at the hotel seemed to be 'self-service' was fine. The breakfast room is quite noisy with coffee machine, toaster and juice machine all being used constantly. Not enjoyable if you make the mistake of sitting near the buffet. Otherwise, a great breakfast. Love the location. Close to Gloucester Road tube, a direct bus from our arrival at Marylebone Station. My favourite London district for strolling around. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Apr 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Single room was small but had everything needed. No air con which I knew about when booking but the room was very hot even through was not a particularly hot March day. Might be very warm in summer. Window only opened a small way. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hilton Garden Inn London Heathrow Terminal 2 and 3](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-London-Heathrow-Terminal-2-And-3.h33088275.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Kensington](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Kensington.h26612.Hotel-Information) > > [Staycity London Dalston](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Kingsland-Locke.h57227439.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis London Earls Court](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Ibis-London-Earls-Court.h14264.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza London Heathrow T4 by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-London-Heathrow-T4.h22334825.Hotel-Information) > > [London Heathrow Marriott Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-London-Heathrow-Marriott-Hotel.h438504.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Ibis-London-Heathrow-Airport.h16754.Hotel-Information) > > [Aerotel London Heathrow Airport Terminal 2-3](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Aerotel-London-Heathrow-T2-T3.h21528024.Hotel-Information) > > [Danubius Hotel Regents Park](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Danubius-Hotel-Regents-Park.h26085.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-London-Heathrow-Airport.h1716953.Hotel-Information) > > [Ibis budget London Heathrow Central](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-London-Heathrow-Central.h72386009.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Sofitel-London-Heathrow.h1740977.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stratford, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Stratford-Hotel-London.h31325464.Hotel-Information) > > [Renaissance London Heathrow Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Renaissance-London-Heathrow-Hotel.h9944.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Leonardo-London-Heathrow-Airport.h570358.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton London City](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Arbor-City-Hotel.h201127.Hotel-Information) > > [Tribe London Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Tribe-London-Canary-Wharf.h83096424.Hotel-Information) > > [MOXY London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-MOXY-London-Heathrow-Airport.h20463397.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn London Heathrow - Bath Road by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Heathrow-Bath-Road.h25727547.Hotel-Information) > > [Thistle London Heathrow Terminal 5](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Thistle-London-Heathrow-T5.h882761.Hotel-Information) > > [Mama Shelter London - Shoreditch](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Mama-Shelter-London-Shoreditch.h1886693.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton London - Docklands Riverside](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-London-Docklands-Riverside.h2456.Hotel-Information) > > [Stamford Bridge Hotel London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Stamford-Bridge-Hotel.h65802.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express London Heathrow T4 by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-London-Heathrow-T4.h22336089.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place London City East](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-London-City-East.h60903297.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Canary-Wharf.h1457899.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson RED Hotel London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Radisson-RED-Hotel-London-Heathrow.h46218383.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points Flex by Sheraton London Shoreditch East](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-East-London-Hotel.h27372440.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel London West](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Novotel-London-West.h17246.Hotel-Information)
