We selected this hotel based on the area and the price as we were visiting the Chelsea Flower show. I booked 2 single rooms for 2 nights for myself and my friend and we were given a double room each, but the rooms were so small that I could not imagine 2 people sharing them. One room was slightly larger... More

Our room was on the ground floor because was scared of the "no elevator" reviews I read somewhere. Proved to be inaccurate as the elevators were working fine, and we'd given up a good view from a higher floor for it. But overall the room was great, high ceiling and just enough for a couple with a lot of luggage.... More

You can survive in the hotel and it's one of the most affordable options, but the rooms were quite poor. Pros + Good location + Friendly staff Cons - Complimentary breakfast is a chaos - Rooms are really small and need some refurbishing/more attention - Noisy in the mornings/not very well isolated

Booked a room for the night. It's a basic hotel so were not expecting a lot and were happy with the room they gave us at the back overlooking a quiet mews. However, the windows were the dirtiest I have seen in a long time, so much so that, when the sun shone on them, you could only barely see... More

The hotel is situated in a very nice area of London : South Kensington has beautiful Victorian houses and nice shops & eating addresses. We had two rooms at the back and they were very quiet, no noise at all. The rooms are rather small, but big enough when spending all day in town. The Gloucester Road Underground is within... More

The Avni provides excellent value for a hotel close to the centre of London. Located 5 minutes from Gloucester Road tubs station, with a large range of pubs and restaurants a short walk away. Check in and out was great. The rooms are functional, clean, and the bed was comfortable. I did not have breakfast so cannot comment. I will... More
