From the moment we decided we would like to stay at the Parkes we couldn't have wished for better service. All the details of our stay were so lovingly arranged. We arrived early so we could take full advantage of our stay in the capital and on arrival our ajoining rooms were already available. With our two children with us... more

We stayed here for one night to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary. Absolutely loved it! Could not have asked for anything more. We arrived early (11am), not expecting our room to be ready but the lovely lady on reception said we could go on up. She also said they had arranged a surprise for us. We had booked a standard... more

First of all, I can not even say enough good things about this hotel!!! I wish it had all five stars (and dont know why) so I would have found it sooner on tripadvisor. It is truly the best!!!! I have stayed in some really nice hotels before (Ritz in Central Park, Grand American in Salt Lake City, etc) and... more

Location is excellent, staff is unbelievably helpful. Hotel is very off the radar in an amazing part of London (Knightsbridge). Close to the tube, so work was easy - close to the sites and nightlife so fun was easy. Hotel has no bar or restaurant, would I would argue is the only downside. Bathrooms are AMAZING. more

I have stayed at Parkes several times previously and one thing I knew about them was that I could rely on this hotel not to let us down for a one-off celebratory weekend. Sure enough Parkes did not let us down. Once again we were... more

This was our 2nd stay this year and it was just as good! The staff are all so helpful and really care. This was an 88th birthday treat for mum in law and we had invited our number 2 son and his fiancee to join us. We had booked a deluxe double and adjoining single and a standard double at... more

Very welcoming and nice staff. We had a 1 bed suite (room 44). Bedroom tiny but sitting room a better size with tiny kitchen (fridge, microwave, etc.). Great minibar. Great location and definitely stay there again, possibly in a room with an outside terrace. M & K, Edinburgh more

We stayed at the Parkes in London in late October. The hotel is loced in the heart of Kensington, in quite street near Harrods. The property is a period residence, however is really past its prime and needs restoration. Both rooms we were in had problems. For the money I think there are much better options unless the location is... more
