There's nothing I can complain about. The staff were fantastic and helpful, my room was very clean with air conditioning and they even left a can of water in the room for me.
28.03.2026 Guest
Great for a night at RAH.
Staff either outstandingly polite and helpful, or rude and dismissive - hence the 3/5 on balance for service.
22.03.2026 Guest
Very nice hotel in the middle of South Kensington. Only issue is the corridors are a little dark, other than that, lovely hotel

Great location near underground, restaurants, and you can walk 10mins to natural history museum ,V&A .
It's a great choice to stay here for discover london museum.
Room is good for solo traveller, staff is friendly and helpful.
Please note, you have to deposit 50 £ before check-in.

I had a bad experience every thing was good but i had my gold rings in the room and they disappeared so don’t keep your expensive things in the room

Location was very good. Very nice location, right next to the museums.
Staff service were just okay, but the breakfast was the most disappointing part. Simple, little choice and low quality.
05.11.2025 Guest
The front desk was very helpful both on my day of arrival and departure. I had to store my luggage there before check-in and after check-out. Unfortunately, due to weather, I had to take out the luggage twice on the same day .... They are indeed helpful. really appreciate it !

dont trust the concierge with their arrangements, even with ample time, they were unable to live up to their promises. Cant believe this is a radisson blu hotel.

Great location. Friendly team members. Clean and well stocked room. Also I was very fortunate to have a very quiet room. Thank you to the team .

An absolutely terrible experience; items I lost at the hotel were never returned.
I checked out at 9 AM. By 1 PM, I realized I'd left 4 boxes of instant camera film, a disposable camera, and a neck pillow in the TV cabinet drawer. I immediately called the hotel, who simply said they'd contact housekeeping to search. After calling again at 3 PM, they still said housekeeping had been contacted and told us to wait.
The next day, I contacted Trip.com customer service to mediate with the hotel. Trip.com reported that the hotel initially kept telling us to wait, then later claimed the items couldn't be found, despite me being absolutely certain they were in that drawer.
On the third day, Trip.com customer service tried again, but the hotel still denied finding anything. The rep even mentioned that the hotel staff didn't seem to be actively searching. In the end, Trip.com compensated me with points, which felt like an unsatisfactory conclusion.
Over these three days, countless emails only yielded empty, frustrating responses like 'we are very sorry' and 'we are still looking'. Calling Radisson headquarters was no different. I'm blacklisting this brand for good.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!

great restaurant. The service is fast and the food really deliciouse!

One of the best Pizzas I've eaten! Spaghetti Bolognese Vegan version is very good as well. Says a German mouth.
23.12.2017 JA
Could not be less customer-service focused. Arrived at 23:05 for a quick dinner or potentially take-away to a nearby hotel. The sign on the door clearly says they close at 23:30 pm on Friday evenings, but the cook said 'no' when I asked politely if they were still serving, and the waiter/host person then said he would have to check with the manager about take-away! There were four men seated who were in the middle of eating, so I perhaps I should take it to be a bias towards women coming in to eat alone late at night, perhaps? In any case, I left; no use staying where you aren't wanted. The local Lebanese restaurant was happy to serve me.

Tasty food and attentive staff. Great lunch offer .
15.09.2017 Maxi
Should probably have ordered a pizza!
Service was mediocre and lacklustre, I watched my food, catching flies and getting cold on the counter for a good 5 minutes before it came to my table without a word of apology, took another few minutes to get the waiter back and another 5 before he actually remembered to bring the black pepper and cheese, he should have offered when he brought the plate!!
It was lunch time and it wasn't that busy.
The pasta, was over cooked, over priced and no where near as interesting as it sounded on the menu.
I wouldn't go here again
