Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Portobello Hotel is known for its funky and uniquely decorated interior, creating a cozy and colorful atmosphere with great attention to detail. Guests often appreciate the spacious rooms, especially by London standards, and the hot chocolate offered with turn-down service is considered a sweet touch. The hotel's location is ideal, with Portobello Road Market just a two-minute walk away and Notting Hill Gate Station within easy reach; however, a few guests have noted that some rooms can be small. it offers a distinctly English experience in a lovely, quiet neighborhood.

A good boutique gem!

kind staffperfect housekeepinggood breakfastgreat comfort
I found the staff very kind. Housekeeping and breakfast service was perfect. Breakfast itself was GOOD. The bed and pillow provided great comfort. It seemed like home.
I thought the air conditioning was LOUD. It interrupted the otherwise perfect calm of the room. Otherwise, everything was perfect.

Breakfast was beautifully presented and cooked with evident CARE. Attention to detail was evident in the cups and saucers. I liked the in-snacks which were exactly what I like. The food was awesome!
