Great location, excellent staff. We left some cash and keys in the room safe by accident. On ringing the hotel, they had already placed them in their safe and I was able to collect them two weeks later. Wonderful 😊

Ignore the doomsayers like Lennard!! This place is excellent. For under £100 per night, you won’t get the Dorchester! You get a clean room with great views. Tea and coffee in the room, and Light of India is next door. Sure, I’ve stayed in fancier hotels all over the world, but I’ve paid for the “privilege” Handy for the museums and the cool vibe of west London. Book a room: enjoy life 👍🏾

Very high quality service - the staff couldn’t have been more attentive. I normally stay with a famous hotel group but I will be staying at the Montana from now on when in Kensington.

No shower or toilet in the hotel rooms. Like a youth hostel, only shared bathrooms in the corridor. The hallway smells of cigarette. More appearance than reality. I have never seen anything like it. No thanks

I hate large hotels so this friendly hotel was just right.
The staff were really polite, friendly and helpful.
The hotel was not too big to be overwhelming. Very ho

We arrived about 2pm on a Monday. As everything had been paid in advance, check in took a matter of minutes. We were given a room in the basement, accessible via stairs off the bar. The room had two twin beds, a desk and bureau, small refrigerator, closet, TV, and a bathroom with full bathtub and shower and large medical cabinet. It was incredibly spacious by London standards. Of course, not all was glorious: the room was very warm and humid even with air conditioning cranked as low as it could go, and our window view looked upon a nasty-looking cement drainage basin between buildings. I kept the

Stayed here for a couple of nights and while the surrounding area is beautiful and desirable my husband and I were disappointed with the hotel itself. It is very dated and needs a lot of updating, the room was tiny leaving us with little room to actually walk on either side of the bed, the AC unit in the room did nothing to cool the room down, and the bed was uncomfortable.

Pros: good WiFi, good location

We stayed a total of 5 nights here. Two in one room and when we came back it was for 3 nights. First room was ok, things were messy due to painting they were doing so we didn't mind. The next time we stayed we had a different room that was smaller and the air conditioning didn't work or the fridge . We called to have those things fixed and they came the next morning. The fridge never got cold and when we called to let them know , they said we weren't used to the fridge temperature in London. None of our drinks or food were cold. However , for the inconvenience they gave us free breakfast

To be honest, this is certainly not my cup of tea. The south kensington area is nice though, but this worn down indian place rates no higher than two stars in my book. I must say that this is the last time that I allow my girlfriend to book the hotel.

Stayed here this past October for a full week plus one night and noticed quite a lot, so here it goes!

Front desk staff can be helpful, depends on who you ask really. There's this young lady from Spain: she's friendly, polite and helpful. A few others are quite courteous as well so overall service is adequate.

The included breakfast, which is served inside the hotel's Indian restaurant, left something to be desired though. The provided toasts were so thin and insubstantial you'd hardly be full even if you finished a whole rack of them. Quality of the tea and coffee were disappointing

I stayed here a couple nights, back in 2012 and I had a great time. The complimentary breakfast was great. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the free wifi was a nice touch. I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in London.

We ordered a deluxe room which turned out to be a dark and cold room located in the basement. The room was equipped with five beds but we we only needed three. There was only one window, a very small one facing another room. We were able to look into each others rooms so we had to keep the curtains closed. We complained to the receptionist but

2.5 stars for this DATED hotel that needs an update, although the staff at the front desk is very nice!! i guess for the price in London, I can't be too picky

PROS:
--Conveniently located next to Gloucester Tube stop w/ a Starbucks, Paul, Tesco express, & waitrose nearby
--free WIFI
--nice staff let us take fruit on the go for breakfast when we didn't have time to sit down!
--lift goes to every floor (but it's small & slow)
--hair dryer, fridge, TV, kettle, & safe provided
--there's an indian restaurant downstairs, but we never tried it! heard it was good though

The previous reviewers were rating the restaurant and not the hotel (which is still really crap).

This hotel is disgusting. A friend stayed a few nights nearby and when they were full and couldn't extend his trip he booked at Montana. Anyway, they led us him to his room and it was the size of a twin bed and about as clean as a functioning (and derelict) broom closet.

If you're really broke and need a bed in London and would prefer to be central and possibly contract some diseases, stay here. Otherwise, avoid!

The Montana is a great little hotel in the Gloucester Road area. We stayed here twice during my visits to London before we moved into a flat.

If you don't mind the occasional whiff of Indian cuisine from the restaurant that's located downstairs, it's a great place!

Rooms are a bit on the tight side - but hey - it is London!

You have the option to take a room with an en suite bathroom or shared; we always selected en suite so I can't comment about the shared facilities.


Management were great, check in was easy. Great little place. Since we've moved away, we'll

Superlative service (even for one businesswoman dining alone, which often leads to being treated like a second class citizen), sparkling clean tablecloths and friendly atmosphere (maybe the Best of Bollywood Dance Video playing on an infinity loop would not have appealed to everyone but I loved it), and every dish was delicious (event my favorite, spinach with prawns, which I'm very picky about.) Made me feel very cared for both physically and otherwise. NOTE: Restaurant is called "Light of India."

The Indian Restaurant in the Montana Hotel is one of my favorites. The food is very good and the decor is tacky, but it's the memories that make this place special for me. On a recent trip to London, my wife and I just enjoyed our time here very much. There is no shortage of quality Indian food in London, but this one somehow became a favorite of ours. If you're in the area, please try it. I want them to still be there for our next trip to London.
