	Date of Stay: November, 2009
Terrible experience. Rude Staff. Missold package. Tiny crampy rooms with loud sliding doors. Avoid if you can.

Date of Stay: July, 2009

I would highly recommend the Holiday Inn London Kensington Forum. Though the room was quite small and rather spartan, it was perfect for our purposes. It was air-conditioned, which was indispensable for the hottest days in London in three years. It is only a block from the Gloucester Road tube station and easy walking distance to several museums and the Royal Albert Hall. Best of all, it is located next to a mini-mall with several restaurants, a grocery store and a pharmacy.

ReviewUnderground car park offers secure parking - an excellent facility. Concierge very helpful re payment of congestion charge. Would recommend for business stopover or city break.

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
Good location. Near Gloucester Rd subway station. Nothing to complain about. Good hotel. It was better than expected. I liked the location because it was easy to get everywhere with subway.

	Date of Stay: June, 2008
Great location near the underground, some attractions and easy places to eat. Staff was helpful and friendly. The room was large by UK standards and very clean. We would stay here again.

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
Great location - able to walk to three museums, a grocery store and several restaurants, and the underground. Hotel staff pleasant and helpful. Room small but clean

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
This hotel was very basic but I thought the actual bedroom was not value for money. The actual bed frame was dirty and old and the wall above where the kettle was situated was dirty and clearly hadn't been cleaned properly.

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
Better than most Holiday Inns which are almost always poor. Food and service in restaurant was bad, no wireless internet in rooms. Great for a Holiday Inn.

	Date of Stay: May, 2008
Very convenient location. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Date of Stay: June, 2009

The hotel gives the impression it may be going a bit downhill. While everything was adequate, nothing really stood out as being great. On checkout, staff asked if we had a chance to try the exercise room (we had), and commented that they just put in all new machines the previous week (early June, 2009). I found this peculiar, as one of the stationary bikes was out of order already. The internet connection in our first room did not work, so they gave us the option to change rooms. A very helpful man at the front desk noticed the room next door to ours was open, and let me try the connection there before moving our luggage over. You will pay 15 pounds per day or 75 for a week of internet connection. This was a surprise to me, having had free wireless in our previous London hotel. The location is great, a block west of Gloucester Road tube station, on the Circle, District and Picadilly lines, so it's an easy trip to Westminster, SoHo, or just about any of the tourist destinations. We were on the 4th floor, and did experience some vehicle noise from the street and music, possibly from within the hotel, because I didn't notice any dance clubs on the street outside.

Good value, clean accommodation. Didnt eat so dont know whether that was good or bad

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
Location. Nothing. Good value for money. Easy access to and from Heathrow within 40 minutes. Convenient for tube station with access to Piccadilly, Circle and district lines.

Date of Stay: April, 2008

My wife and I were on our honeymoon, we only stayed in London one night coming back from Paris. Since we had little time to see the sites, and this being our first trip there, we really wanted to see as much as we could. The staff at the hotel went out of their way to point us in the right direction. They explained were and how to take the subway. The concierge got us tickets to the double-decker bus. We saw has much as one can in such little time thanks to the staff at the Holiday Inn London Kensington Forum. The hotel is well located and the staff is extremely helpful for all he guest needs. We highly recommend this hotel.

	Date of Stay: April, 2009
I was only there for one night, and a short one at that, but my stay was very good. I had a late check-in which wasn't a problem at all, I just called ahead and let them know. And when I checked out the next morning I was able to leave me luggage at the hotel for the day while I walked the city. Very accommodating staff; great experience!

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
In need of some TLC I would imagine that although clean the rooms do need some TLC, and with this done they would be very good value for money. Reception was fantastic and very helpful.Apart from being woken at 8am by the cleaning staff and some noisey kids along the corridor, the sleep was great. A lack of decent towels was my biggest bug bear.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
Location to the Underground stations. Twin beds for 250L a night is a rip-off. Great location. small rooms and the hairdryers are tucked under a desk. Also the coolers in the room do not work. Decent for about 1/2 the price.

	Date of Stay: October, 2007
Very close to a major underground station. There was no where we could not easily go. If you had the time and energy one could walk to many major sites. Rooms were a good size compared to what i was used to in other parts of europe. Starbucks was a god send. Would stay there again in a second.

Date of Stay: January, 2009

The London Kensington Forum is exremely convenient for getting around London.With a tube station only a half block away and a taxi rank on the hotel grounds a visit to any part of London is a snap, even for the London newcomer.Couple this with a central location and a myriad of restaurants and pubs within walking distance and you have a safe bet for a London stay.However,if you are seeking old world charm you won't find it at this very large,modern,American style hotel.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
london kensington holiday innattentive, helpful staff.well located.decent weekend break hotel.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
The location was great, nice staff and room was comfortable. Nice and comfortable hotel. Room size was decent for European standards. Small TV but not really in London to watch TV so that made no difference to me. Overall, we were very pleased with this hotel.
