I would give this hotel 5 stars for room cleanliness. The shower, sink, windowsills, under the desk- everywhere was clean. It’s been remodeled nicely. The towels were soft and thick. Even had usb ports for chargers. …

Breakfast is excellent, room itself totally fine (it's small but what do you expect in central London). The issue was that the hot water wasn't working in the room, so I ended up having a cold shower. On checking out I mentioned it to the receptionist who told me that it was an ongoing issue and that she'd note it. No offer to do anything about it. I see from the reviews that the plumbing is a long-term issue, so if you're staying, check the hot water straight away and ask to change room if it isn't, rather than waiting until the morning.

The room was nice. There was a couch, desk and 2 night stands. There were plenty of outlets in the room. The bathroom was clean, but the high sided raised tub was difficult to get out of with wet feet. There was no hand hold or anything to assist. I was also on the back side, and by a rear exit area and the breakfast area. It was loud in the morning, and when people were leaving. The location of the hotel is fantastic, lots of place to eat and relax at.

We were very happy with our choice to stay here. It was very comfortable, pleasant place to stay. The rooms are small, but that seems typical in this area. The breakfast was additional but was very good. Great variety and fresh food. All of the staff were very kind and helpful.

Best Western Mornington London is in a great location with easy access to Hyde Park and nearby stations. There are plenty of dining options around. The staff were excellent—very helpful and accommodating. The breakfast was also good. However, the room was quite small, and the lack of a fridge was a downside. Overall, it worked well for a solo business trip.

When I was asked on check out how my stay was, I informed the lady on front desk that there was no cold water alongside the shower pressure issue. The cold tap was hot and the hot tap was almost unbearably hot. …

Hotel located close to beautiful Hyde Park and not far from the underground. Very quiet area. The hotel staff was very helpful and friendly. We chose the breakfast option. The breakfast was really excellent. The library and the bar by the entrance are also very attractive.

Very disappointing. To say we booked an executive queen room, it was obvious that it was a standard twin with the beds pushed together. A pokey little room with poor facilities. …

I stayed at this hotel for only one night. It is an old building where the hotel is situated but it is such a great experience to spend a night in that kind of building.|The room was on the 5th floor, small but very nice. Breakfast was very good. Location of the hotel was great.
