This hotel was very good,clean and comfortable good location for theatre land. The only let down was the size of the bed we are not big people but I don`t remember double beds being this size. So when booking make sure you ask for Queen size or bigger.

"Location excellent, room too small, staff needs training on customer service."

Excellent for theatre break. Too pricey for such a small room. No guidance given on heating in the room, not told kettle and coffee, tea were in a cupboard. At breakfast not told where the toaster is , where the fruit juice is, how you get coffee or tea. Why does the guy take your room number and tell you absolutely nothing about where you find things and how breakfast is organised. Train the staff.

"VERY FRIENDLY HOTEL"

We arrived early and Mosh on reception was most helpful and arranged early check in for us. Concierge and customer service desks were also exceptionally friendly and could not do enough for you. We had pre booked afternoon tea in Scoff and Banter but staff had no record and we had to wait some time for this, which was a bit bad considering the hefty automatic service charge. Room 326 was also too small for a twin room, toilet had no where to hang towels other than small rail above toilet, not what you would expect in a 4 star hotel - even in London!

"Brilliant Location"

Excellent except that our room was next to the security door and it closed with a thump every time it closed. The hotel was fully booked so we received a complimentary breakfast to make up for this. Breakfast was wonderful. The waiting staff in the bar area were not as attentive as they could have been.

"Good location and good room.Hotel staff that we met were all very helpful and friendly."

Overall Hotel was up to standard although the breakfast choice was the same for both days so could get a bit tedious for a longer stay,The location is very good for several theatre venues which are within a fifteen minute walk from the hotel and the Museum is only a few yards away.

"Radisson Blu kenilworth"

Extremely friendly and helpful staff from the minute we arrived to the minute we left. A little blip with the room (adjoining) that resulted in a disturbed night but the staff tended to this the following day in a very professional and prompt manner. The surroundings and eating area / bar is lovely; great choice of breakfast. We would stay again!

"Brilliant location , excellent caring staff ,very comfortable "

After We made the reservation , I Informed the duty manager that we would be celebrating a special occasion .(Irene) organised a bottle of proseco and card to be left in the room when we checked in.which we appreciated very much , a very nice touch. All staff were absolutely fantastic . Every one ( yes everyone) was friendly, curteous and efficient. Nothing was too much trouble. We had breakfast both mornings of our stay, which again was excellent . The hotel is situated a couple of minutes walk from Tottenham Court Tube station. We walked to the Lyceum Theatre in no time at all . The following evening we walked into Soho to Ronnie Scott`s. We were also able to pick up the Original London tour bus not too far away. Would definitely recommend staying at the Radisson Blue Edwardian Kenilworth Hotel. Big thank you for making a special weekend even more special.

"Perfect "

As always the Radisson chain comes up trumps. Staff couldn`t be friendlier, room small but absolutely spotless and functional for our stay. 1 min from Shaftesbury theatre. A highly recommended place to stay

"Disappointing"

The staff are all very friendly and polite. The hotel and rooms themselves are very clean and there is a lovely, relaxed atmosphere. However, the room we were given on the first floor was right on the junction of a busy crossroads, where one of the main secondary glazing window panels was missing, therefore all night it was busy traffic and sirens so we didn`t get any sleep at all. We unfortunately didn`t realise this until it was time for bed as the air-con fan had been left on high which disguised the loud traffic noise until we turned it off!! Bitterly disappointed as this was our 10th wedding anniversary and this spoiled an otherwise lovely time.

"one night theatre break. "

Super location, with polite, attentive people working on reception. Our first kingsize room had a noisy bathroom fan that we couldn`t turn off so Enrique (think that`s how you spell the name) put us in a great room on the third floor that had loads of space and much better view (without a noisy fan). No fuss, no bother just lots of smiles and willingness to please! Fantastic.

"Standard Double Room"

Reception was swift and courteous. Room was smaller than expected but well laid out and had all I needed. Shower kept changing temperature slightly which was annoying. Only 4 channels on the tv, it was like being in the Eighties again!. It was good for 1 person, might be a bit small for 2

"Excellent location. "

The hotel was very good and the staff excellent and very helpful. The rooms were very small, considering the cost, but adequate for one night. On the plus side the location was great and we were able to walk to the Shaftesbury Theatre , which took 10 mins and Covent Garden.

"Smallest double room ever encountered in any hotel anywhere"

Accommodation unimpressive - tiny room, negligible storage space - cramped shower room - poky shower cubicle, with only a fixed overhead shower, in need of renovation.
