myhotel Chelsea

The myhotel at Chelsea was a great experience. The room was very neat and clean and had all the necessary equipment.

The staff was very polite and helpful and there is a nice bar or reading room as well as meeting facilities.

The breakfast buffet was very nice and the food good.

We stayed here for two nights and were extremely pleased we chose this hotel to stay. The room was huge, with an enormous double bed. The hotel is very modestly decorated and relaxing. Breakfast was nice, with lovely sofas to relax with a coffee or glass or wine. The staff were extremely helpful and very pleasant. The location is in a beautiful part of London, easily accessible by tube. I would go back here in an instant.

This is a lovely location, though it's quite a walk from the nearest tube if you have luggage so would recommend you take a taxi. It's lovely and peaceful, even in the height of summer, yet it's walking distance to Harrods and Westminster. The V and A and Natural History Museum are even nearer.

On arrival the staff couldn't find our booking, so we were sent to have a glass of wone in the bar. When they did find the booking, we were upgraded, which was a wonderful surprise. As a consequence, our room was spacious, with a bath, and shower over. My only TEENSY quibble is that you would expect more milk and some biscuits on the hospitality tray. Otherwise everything is as you would expect for a boutique hotel, though I think the attitude of the staff here is wonderful - unobtrusive, yet they really try to take care of you.

The bar is, as someone else has mentioned, very 'Sex and the City'. We had to wait quite a while for our food, and when it arrived it was cold! However, they dealt with this really quickly when we pointed it out, and didn't charge us for our coffee and dessert as recompense. It was explained that the chef was 'confused'. We were more than happy with this, so it was a surprise to get a letter from the catering manager when we got home, offering us a complimentary main course and glass of wine on our next visit!

The next morning the chef was still confused, and so our mixed toast was just white. Again, this was sorted almost immediately - but it did put me in mind of the soused chef in 'Fawlty Towers'! That morning was the only time we made it down in time for breakfast, but it was a wonderful selection - no need to have the full English because the continental is more than sufficient.

On the whole I loved this hotel - we had a really lovely stay, and it was a beautiful oasis from the tourist hustle and bustle.
