The lovely 33-room Garden Court Hotel, situated on leafy Kensington Gardens Square, feels like a country home in London, boasting real charm and an 'Old English' attention to detail. Everything, from the carpets to the wallpaper, seems well-maintained and proper, in a grandmother kind of way.
Even though we liked it as was, in 2004, the Garden Court celebrated its 50th anniversary and marked the occasion by giving a classy facelift to its fifth floor, adding an elevator and converting a downstairs bedroom into a tranquil 'garden room,' where guests can have enjoy some coffee, tea, or a book. Since then, the hotel has also equipped each room in 20 inch LCD digital flat screen televisions. Happily, the homey rooms on the first four floors remain virtually untouched.
Kensington Gardens Square is located one block North of the Bayswater Tube stop and five minutes from Hyde Park in the heart of Bayswater.
