The Ampersand Hotel
The influence of the neighborhood is clearly on display in the 111 rooms and suites, each in one of five themes: botany, music, geometry, ornithology and astronomy. Entry-level double rooms are small, though generous in other ways: lavish velvet headboards on the beds, large LCD screens, complimentary wi-fi and soft drinks from the minibar, toiletries by Malin + Goetz. Superior and Deluxe rooms are a bit more spacious, but it’s really not until the Deluxe studios, with their king beds and separate sitting areas, that there’s room to entertain. Opt for a suite and you’ll definitely want to show it off: floor-to-ceiling windows with London skyline views, a fourth- or fifth-floor balcony among the building’s eaves, a kitchenette and a separate sitting room, if you can bring yourself back inside.
The atmosphere of The Drawing Rooms, which form the heart of the hotel, are similarly urbane, though hardly prim and proper. Afternoon tea, pastries on silver trays and coffee from a Victorian press may all sound old-fashioned, yet the presentation is anything but. Beneath the original brick cellar arches at the base of the hotel, Apero bar and restaurant brings to its space an equally fresh style, with white metro tiles, warm lighting and light Mediterranean-style food. It’s all evidence that, with enough care and a good eye, it’s still possible to create a hotel that’s quintessentially London — without slipping into Union Jack self-parody.

The incredible service from everyone: warm, open, relaxed, ready to help with everything. The hotel is decorated with intelligence, whimsy, and an attention to detail. Excellent location and restaurant.
Location was perfect, just across South kensington tube station and 2 minutes to museums. Nice Restaurants around. Rooms were very good, clean, spacious and very big windows. Breakfast was very good. In a cosy cafe like place where you dont feel like hotel breakfast. Everything in the room was complimentary. Very tempting for kids :) They even had kid’s bathrobe and slippers, and gifts to kids upon arrival. Team was super helpful and kind.
lovely place, amazing view and super friendly staff. so dreamy!
The Ampersand was perfectly located. A short walk to Kensington Station, a bit longer to Sloane Station and a nice stroll to Harrod’s. The heated bathroom floor was divine. Niels went above & beyond assisting us with our stay w/in the hotel, w/places to dine, sight see and navigate to. And he made it all simple.
