I recently stayed at 1 Lexham Gardens Hotel, and while it had a fantastic location and friendly staff, my experience was marred by some significant drawbacks. The room was quite small and felt a bit rundown, with issues regarding heating making my stay uncomfortable. However, the staff were attentive and went out of their way to make my birthday special, which I truly appreciated. Overall, there were positives, but the experience could be significantly improved.

My stay at Lexham Gardens Hotel was quite a mixed bag. While the location was superb for exploring London's attractions, the overall experience left much to be desired.

My stay at 1 Lexham Gardens was quite disappointing. The hotel had potential, with a beautiful exterior and a decent location, but my experience was marred by issues such as a dirty room and poor customer service. I encountered cleanliness problems, significant delays during check-in, and a lack of responsiveness from the staff when I raised my concerns. Overall, it left a negative impression on my trip to London.
Rooms
5.0
The room I was initially given was frankly unacceptable. There were stains on the walls and the shower was mouldy. After complaining, I was moved to another room, which was an improvement, but still had issues like a broken door lock. Cleanliness clearly needs attention.
Service
5.0
Although the staff were friendly, their service fell short. I waited too long for check-in, and the response to my complaints about the room issues was lacking urgency. A maintenance issue took time to address without any apology.
Location
5.0
The location is decent, within walking distance to tube stations and nearby attractions like Hyde Park. However, the promise of a quick two-minute walk to the tube was misleading, as it was more like a 10-15 minute stroll.
Dining

I was left disappointed by the breakfast service which was slow and underwhelming. On one occasion, I only received a small yogurt and a slice of toast despite requesting an early breakfast the night before.
Facilities
5.0
The facilities seemed basic and outdated. I expected more for the price, especially in terms of room maintenance and cleanliness.

I stayed at Lexham Gardens for a few nights, and overall, the experience was decent but had its drawbacks. The location was convenient, being a short walk from the tube, which made exploring London easy. However, my room felt a bit old and in need of refurbishing, and I noticed some noise from the surroundings that disturbed my sleep occasionally. While I appreciated the toiletries and bottled water provided, the bathroom particularly needed attention.
