“Lovely hotel, shame about the staff”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 February 2011

Beautiful hotel, lovely room (we stayed in a Junior Suite). However, the reception upon arrival was unfriendly, and my partner and I felt as though we were cold-calling at the Royal Family's weekend residence. We went out for the evening, and upon our return we received a slightly better reception, but had to show our room key to prove we were residents. The minibar in the room (no alcohol in sight) charged £4.50 for a can of Coke, and £3.00 for a Mars Bar. Continental breakfast for one person was £14 (plus VAT) and not fresh. Or warm.

Really nice room, but not value for money.

“Spacious room in a great location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2011

Spent two nights here before Christmas with my husband. We loved the spacious room (we took a Junior Suite) - always a bonus in cities like London - my only complaint would be the bathroom, which was small and didn't live up to the standard of the room. Room service for breakfast was good, prompt and of a high standard. When we couldn't get a reservation at the fabulous Indian Restaurant around the corner called Rasoi for our second night, the Receptionist was successful - please go there if you can - the food is outstanding. Lastly, the location was perfect - so convenient for the shops. I would recommend this place and gladly stay there again; however, as we live in the country, and usually go to London for some hussle and bussle, I found San Domenico House too quiet .... which is the best compliment I can give the place because that is exactly why people stay there!

“London's Best Kept Secret”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 March 2010

Where does one start when he enjoyed everything. The property is one of a kind in london. I have stayed in my fair share of hotels and I loved that property. The exquisite attention to detail was unrivaled. I loved the homey feel the room had to it. Location was super ideal and the service was impeccable.

“A nicely styled hotel marred by slack customer service”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2010

We booked this hotel to stay in for our wedding night as the location was convenient and we loved the style of the hotel. However our stay was marred by the fact that despite booking almost a year in advance and confirming closer to the date the room we had specifically booked wasn't available when we turned up after the ceremony to get some professional photos taken. Unfortunately the photographs were dependent on this room so we never got our shots. A real disappointment on a near perfect day.

“a dream hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 September 2009

This little gem is situatd in the kensington/Chelsea Borough and has only 19 rooms. They are all differently styled but in a most chique and elegant way. The staff was very friendly. This hotel won the bet B&B 2008/2009 award and rightfully so. Many of the room interiors can be seen on the virtual tour on the hotel's website. The King's road is at 1 minute away with lots of café's and restaurants.Even the sloane square tube station is abt 2 min away. An ideal spot where we shall certainly return.
