For 185 quid a night, do you expect...
A bed covering that looks as though it has been trampled with muddy boots?
A shrug and a "we'll change it tomorrow" when it is mentioned to staff?
A broken electrical socket that burns out your mobile phone adaptor?
A broken toilet seat?
An old, tired, and grimy bathroom?
or the offer of a smaller alternative room in the basement?
or silence and another shrug when you explain calmly that you are not entirely happy with your stay?
If your answers are "yes" to the above, then I can heartily recommend the Lennox.
What galls me most about so called “boutique” hotels like the Lennox is that so much is spent on furnishing the rooms “tastefully” to please the website voyeurs and so little is spent on providing clean and comfortable facilities for “over”- paying guests.
If you need to be close to Portobello then I suggest saving yourself 80 quid and shopping around for one of the many B&Bs and budget hotels in the area.
I would like to have provided photographic evidence of the “executive luxury” you can expect at the Lennox, but as I said, the hotel’s electrics fried my phone/camera charger.

We stayed in the Junior Suite and it was really lovely. The staff were very helpful, the room was clean with lots of natural light, a comfortable bed and everything that you would want on holidays. The breakfast was great. Can't fault the place.

Stayed here for two nights with my family of four in a large room with a large king bed and two cots. Really a lovely hotel with a warm and helpful staff. The location is simply perfect - only a minute's walk from the Notting Hill Gate tube stop, and close by loads of restaurants and pubs. Clean, elegant, and roomy. Excellent A/C, a small bar, and internet access. A favourite of English soccer star Paul "Gasa" who happened to be there at the same time as us - quite a character!

A word of caution to anyone travelling to London - it is beyond expensive. Every single thing you buy is 3 to 5 times the cost here in Canada!

Our family stayed here for three nights starting on June 14th, 2006. We stayed in a Junior Suite. The staff were extremely nice and helpful. We especially appreciated Ana's great help and kindness. The room was very nice and large with a very good air conditioning. The windows of the room looked out toward Portobello road in Notting Hill. This was our first trip to London and based upon our research, I think this is an excellent choice of a place to stay in London. It is quiet and still in a great location with easy access to transportation to any part of London. The Notting Hill Gate tube is just a short walk away as well as bus stops that take you anywhere in London. The famous market in Notting Hill was on Saturday is just out your back door steps, a short walk away and is lots of fun. There are many good restaurants in the area that the hotel will help you locate.

I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in London. Everything to me was just great!
