Doubletree Hyde Park

Our package included air and 7-night hotel. Our hotel was the Doubletree Hyde Park, conveniently located just north of Hyde Park & Kensington Palace.

It's a 4 minute walk to the Queensway Tube Station on the Central Line and a 6 minute walk to Bayswater on the Circle Line. The location was definitely very convenient.




Doubletree's signature warm cookie on arrival.

There was some construction going on but the facade of the building next door was preserved.


The rooms were fairly large, by London standards.


The bathroom was large as well. My only complaint was that there were not enough hooks and bars to hang towels. The water pressure was good but the hot water ran hot & cool--apparently it's a London-wide problem.


Standard shampoo, conditioner, body gel, lotion and bar of soap. No q-tips or cotton swabs, no shower caps and no shoe shine sponge.


We got free breakfast and it was more than adequate. There was no variation--we were there for 7 nights and got the same thing every day.


Standard English breakfast with sausages (pork & chicken), bacon, hash brown potatoes, grilled tomatoes, fried & scrambled eggs, mushrooms, fruit & pastries.


The Hydration Juice was quite good. It was naturally low in sugar and was loaded with zinc and Vitamin C. You also had a choice of apple or orange juice.

There was a coffee and hot water dispenser.
