Reviews for The Franklin
Prestigious stay in the Franklin hotel London.
Such a good experience, unforgettable stay, I had stayed 5 nights. The staff were very friendly specifically Yousef , Neusa. But I couldn't forget the manager Ms.Justina for her support. I had very pleasant stay in all manners, the only thing they need to consider is the time that it will be taken to have your breakfast 😉 really sometimes it took around 40 minutes.

Excellent Stay, Exceptional Staff - A Hotel that Stands Out in London
The Franklin Hotel is a fantastic oasis amongst the many hotels in London and specifically, Knightsbridge/South Kensington. While the experience was great, the staff are truly exceptional. Andrei went out of his way to find me a room after I moved hotels. He was attentive, helpful, and provided excellent service. Kate was so helpful and could not have been more thoughtful. Oscar offered great advice and impeccable service. The entire staff made the excellent hotel even better. I have stayed in many hotels in London, and I could not have been more pleased.

Lovely property
We had a Lovely stay in that small property. After a last minute cancellation from Eurostar, we had to find a room on the way to the airport. As it was just for one night, we booked the smaller category and was actually quite big ! The room is very quiet overlooking the shared garden. A regular socket inside the bathroom or a full mirror in the room might be a nice improvement to do my hair during the morning. Staff was very welcoming and always here to help. The menu at the restaurant is a bit surprising but the risotto was very tasty and the burger too. Breakfast was included and quite generous for free a la carte. Had a very nice moment in that typical British street !

Oh, dear...
We planned to stay for five nights, we left after one. Room (suite, 550 euros p/n) was dark gray with black curtains and no lights, like living in a cave. Couldn't find anything. Not a good look in cloudy, gray London. Tiny closet space and no chest of drawers. Had to close the bathroom door to use the loo. Heard the people upstairs. Eager, but amateurish staff. Boring part of the city, though close to Harrods if that is your thing. We left after one night and went to the Stafford. Triple the price, but SO nice. What happened to the SLH brand? Used to be wonderful.

Boutique hotel with great staff!
I stayed here the first weekend of December as I was getting married at Chelsea Town Hall. We stayed in the presidential suite and the room cannot be faulted. It’s beautifully decorated throughout and has a vast amount of space. The room has a greta selection of extras and upon our arrival was a lovely afternoon tea style selection of fruit and chocolates. The staff in the hotel from booking to the stay itself were excellent; I had some queries due to it being my wedding stay and they helped with the logistics of things and couldn’t be anymore helpful if they tried. I can’t remember everyone but Justina, Lorenzo and Francine are some names of staff that stick in my mind for being extremely helpful. We had breakfast both days we stayed and it was lovely. Brilliant food. Service was a little bit slow but nothing that was an issue. Location is great! 10 minute walk to Harrods and 12 minute walk to the Kings Road. Really central. Thank you to all the staff at the hotel for making our wedding weekend amazing.
