I really enjoyed my stay here. The staff were so kind and helpful from the moment I arrived. My room was clean and neat, it had everything I needed. I could walk to the train and there were lots of restaurants and amenities nearby including a laundromat. I was assisted by staff to book a taxi for my departure. I have no hesitation in recommending this hotel to anyone.

The location was great- lovely walking neighborhood with shops and food close by and easy access to the Circle Line in the Underground to go to all the places you want to see in London. Beautiful bathroom, comfortable beds, useful usb outlets making our converters not as necessary and wonderful ac during the heat wave. We definitely want to come back for another stay!

Beautiful building, great location. Safe and clean. My room was a bit of a squeeze, but otherwise it had all I needed for a 2 night stay. I was on the ground floor with a lovely double door exit to a pebble-stone courtyard (great for keeping the room refreshed).

Stayed 1 night after going to Wembley for an evening kick off. Staff were really friendly especially on the breakfast service. Hotel decor was excellent, room and bathroom spotless. Cracking nights sleep in a comfortable bed and the area around hotel was very very quiet at night so no disturbance. Bayswater Underground Station literally just round corner with 3 decent pubs in between. Wouldn’t hesitate to go back for another stay.

Absolutely lovely hotel. Beautifully clean and bright throughout. Both reception staff I met were smart, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good, not much to choose from in the continental section but the freshly ordered hot breakfast I had was lovely. I was upgraded on arrival so had a larger room than expected which was very appreciated. It meant my daughter and I could have our own beds. The room was clean and bright and so quiet! Could not fault the hotel. The area it is in is also beautiful. Minutes from Nottinghill on foot or Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park and plenty choices for somewhere to eat within a 10 minute walk in all directions. Will definitely return. Thank you

The Princes Square Hotel is a lovely, clean, and safe hotel that is centrally located in London with two nearby stations within a 5 minute walk, Bayswater and Queensway. This makes travel safe and easy. On this street, there are a variety of nice restaurants, pharmacy, and stores that are popular with the locals. The beds were blessedly comfortable and the shower in the bathroom was easy to use. The whole hotel was well maintained both inside and out. All the staff were very helpful and professional. We dragged ourselves through the front door after a harried four hour drive to drop the rental car off at Heathrow, an underground, and a taxi ride, we arrived despite my injured leg. The front desk not only gave us a very nice room, but he also carried our luggage to our room to make things easier. There is an elevator in the building, but he felt we would be more comfortable on the ground floor. He was right and it was a really nice room.
