Our room at The Portobello Hotel was huge and richly decorated...we loved spending time in it ,which is unusual for hotel rooms. Breakfast was delightful. Staff was very accommodating including keeping our bag as we went off to Egypt. Hotel is walking distance to Portobello market and lots of great restaurants and Holland Park!

The property is in a great location and still quiet at night. The bed was extremely comfortable but the room a little cramped and the bathroom very small.

Quaint and charming don’t quite fully describe this little gem of a hotel. Authentically homey, well appointed, and perfectly located. Nicest staff, great breakfast and a lovely living room. Our room was spacious for any city - felt luxuriously ample for London/Europe. It was a bit loud - we could hear upstairs neighbors walking around - nothing a sound app couldn’t muffle.

Lovely quirky hotel
Really lovely quirky hotel very near Portobello Road - great for all the restaurants etc in the area. We had an attic room that was perfect for us - really quiet, cool (it was a very hot day) and discreet. Will definitely be staying here again.

What an experience staying at this storied and and beautiful boutique hotel in the Notting Hill area of London! The rooms were comfortable, quiet and uniquely decorated. Staff were helpful and fun to talk to. It’s also just a short walk to some lovely wine bars and the Portobello Market. Loved it and will definitely be back!

Amazing hotel in the heart of Notting hill
Absolutely love the portobello hotel have stayed before and brought my mam for her 70th. The room was amazing, love the new decor and the bed is simply the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in and the pillows! Gorgeous feel in a beautiful place in Notting hill almost feels like a little secret and just round the corner from portobello market. My favourite hotel in London! Breakfast was nice the only thing I’d say is I think the choice of having a hot breakfast should be included in the price.

Lovely hotel. Very quiet, safe and room was spacious. Staff was kind and helpful. Continental breakfast was great and bed was super comfortable. We were on the ground floor and loved our beautifully decorated room that had a large bathroom with antique bathtub. Beautiful garden views outside our window. Place was exactly as pictured and described. Furthermore - the neighborhood is wonderful to explore and walk. Highly recommend. Thank you!

Lovely place to stay. Great ambience, comfortable bed, quiet location. The staff were all amazing. For our 5 day stay, I had a relaxing breakfast downstairs, and then requested my wife's breakfast in our room. On the 4th day of our stay, I forgot to order her breakfast before I returned to our room. Shortly after I got there, the phone rang. It was reception asking if my wife would like her breakfast sent up. It doesn't get better than that!

Great location small room
Great service and perfect location. We had a ground floor room - it was much smaller than any of the photos I’d seen and the bathroom was so tiny there wasn’t even space to get changed in there. Paid £269 for one night and expected a bit more from the photos on the website. Continental breakfast was good value for two people.
