Latest 5 reviews of Best Western John Howard Hotel
Friendly Hotel, Superb Location, Amazing Break
I stayed at the John Howard Hotel this summer with some of my friends for a city-break. It was a lovely hotel and the staff were very polite and helpful. For example, they recommended us a restaurant (which was very good) and gave suggestions as to what was the best way to see the most of London. The hotel is very clean (including the bathroom), and the hotel has everything you need. The location is incredible, it's in the heart of London but in the more sophisticated area of Kensington. Public transport is easy to get to, but it is easy to get to places even by walking.
I really enjoyed this break and especially the hotel, I would strongly recommed staying at the John Howard Hotel if visting London, and I hope to be back very soon.

Great location with friendly staff
Stayed for a total of 9 nights at beginning and end of 5 week trip (from Australia) so was able to compare to other hotels. Wasn't sure what to expect having read reviews about small rooms and a small lift.... was pleasantly surprised to find the room (E) more than adequate for the 4 of us and found a smaller lift in Cornwall! Beds were very comfy - floorboards are quite creaky and we had some inconsiderate neighbours above us a couple of times but its a very old place (in good nick) and mostly quiet. Staff were fantastic, especially the guys on night duty - all staff were happy to help put with tourist type advice and were fairly knowledgable. Its a pleasant 10 minute stroll to Glousester Rd or South Kensington tube stations - numerous eateries are less than 5 minutes walk away as is the Natural History museum. Felt very safe walking these nice streets. Hyde Park is literally over the road. Breakfast was no frills but fresh and tasty - could order extras if need be - didn't have dinner there. Would go again.

Great hotel, good facilities, excellant location and very warming
Myself and my freinds have stayed at this hotel on many occasions for long weekends.
The hotel staff and facilities are great together with the excellant customer service. Even at 4am in the morning the hotel staff arranged for pizza's and chips for us all which was great!!!
Definitely a good stay, good location and the general ethos of the hotel is very warming.

Great location...Hyde Park on your doorstep
My wife, I and our two young sons booked this hotel along with tickets to Grease. We arrived late on the Friday evening after a fantastic show.. travelled in style from theatre land to the hotel by Rickshaw, which cost the same as a taxi but was so much fun our sons will never forget it. The nightporters who showed us to our room were really helpful and it was no bother at all for them to make us some snacks to quench the hunger of two growing boys. The apartment was fantastic, really spacious and although it was in the basement this did not detract from it at all. Breakfast was really good with a hot food buffet plus other items to order. The reception staff were really helpful and directed us to the Diana Memorial Park in Hyde Park which is really worth a visit if you have children 12 or under, we had hours of fun and all for free. Definately would stay here again.. it is in a beautiful part of London, great staff, spacious accommodation and we think good value for money.

Close to everything
The room was small, we requested twin beds, reading other reviews we saw that most of the rooms and beds in London are small. The beds were comfortable as well as the pillow. Usually, beds tend to be very hard and pillows are uncomfortable. But that was not the case at this Best Western. The restaurant was expensive and the food not really all that good. It's best to take the #70 bus at the end of the block or walk a few blocks to find a variety of food. The staff was not very well informed regarding the area. Be extremely careful getting out of the bathtub. It is higher than the norm and very slippery.
