10/10

Very clean, good location, check in straightforward and easy, great for a business stay
2-night trip

10/10

This is a great hotel as it is in a very neighbourhood, close to the underground, within walking distance of the South Kensington museums and some nice places to eat. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The room was clean, comfortable, had coffee and tea facilities, and a decent bathroom. Breakfast was included, although it is fairly simple buffet, but certainly more than enough. I’d definitely stay here again.
2-night trip

8/10

We didn't need any special help so the fact that everything at the hotel seemed to be 'self-service' was fine. The breakfast room is quite noisy with coffee machine, toaster and juice machine all being used constantly. Not enjoyable if you make the mistake of sitting near the buffet. Otherwise, a great breakfast. Love the location. Close to Gloucester Road tube, a direct bus from our arrival at Marylebone Station. My favourite London district for strolling around.
5-night trip

8/10

Single room was small but had everything needed. No air con which I knew about when booking but the room was very hot even through was not a particularly hot March day. Might be very warm in summer. Window only opened a small way.

5-night trip

8/10

I only stayed for two nights. Room size is small especially bathroom but the overall price is great for short stay. The staff was nice and helpful when I have reported that the radiator seemed not working in the room, they provided the probable heater, and offered a compensation of late checkout.

Just so so but the location is quite convenient.

The room was a bit small, especially the bathroom and the shower, but overall it was a great place. The room had all the facilities needed, a bit hot tho even if the radiator was off
3-night trip

4/10

The rooms were great, but I hate the fact I had to create ana account to check in to the rooms. The water also had issues as it would not stay hot. There is also a charge to make up the room which I have never seen before?

2-night trip

8/10

I only stayed for two nights so I didn´t make use of the full range of service available. For such short stay it was perfect.Very nice clean bathroom with all products on the shelf and a great bed. I ask no more than that when I have a short stop over. Iron, safety box, and kettle for maiking tea too
2-night trip

6/10

Good for a night stay but is a no thrills Sonder. Not common as most Sonder venues are pretty solid options. Good safe and quiet location however and close to stations for easy transport. Would stay again
1-night trip

Nice location. Clean and cosy rooms with just enough space. Minus for no handheld showerhead and no sentral air/aircondition.
3-night trip

8/10

7 minute walk to closest train station. Rooms are pretty good size, but bathroom is small, especially the shower. Wasn’t able to control temperature in room but luckily the temperature was fine for our stay.

1-night trip

6/10

4th time at Sonder and my last stay was disappointing. Hair in the bathroom, very small room vs my booking description so unfortunately won’t stay there again. Such a shame as my previous stay was ok for the price.
2-night trip

6/10

Great property but the amenities not available as described and the atmosphere inside hotel could have been made and decorated better in terms of adding more picture and making it more charming and welcoming
2-night trip

8/10

I would just add a refrigerator, ice, microwave for guest that are staying more than 4 days
5-night trip

8/10

Generally nice Hotel, the rooms are all well equipped but it's worth mentioning that room cleaning has to be ordered and paid separately.
2-night trip

8/10

For me the location of the hotel was very good. It was easily accessible by public transportation. The hotel corridor and room was very hot and not air conditioned. But in the room by keeping the windows open it was okish. The rest was fine, friendly staff, good communication before check in and had easy check in check out process.
2-night trip

6/10

The room was very basic, the fan didn’t work so it got quite hot.
