The Montana hotel in London's South Kensington is our best rated tourist class hotel offering a great location with museums, Harrods, shops, restaurants and the exhibition centres of Earls Court and Olympia all close by. Across the road is the London Underground station of Gloucester Road which offers direct lines to both London Heathrow Airport and the West End / Theatreland. The public areas are extremely comfortable and include a very good bar and a new restaurant. Highly recommended.
The Montana Hotel London is within 3 minutes walk of Gloucester Road Underground Station with it's direct connection to all four London Heathrow Airport Terminals. From this station, there is also a direct link to the West End of London and Theatreland with a journey time of less than 10 minutes to Piccadilly Circus, Leicester Square and Covent Garden. From the same station, it is also possible to directly access High Street Kensington, Knightsbridge (Harrod's), Victoria Station, Earl's Court and Tower Hill. In the immediate vicinity are some world famous London museums - the Victoria & Albert, the Natural History, the Geological and the Science are all less than 5 minutes walk. The Royal Albert Hall in less than 10 minutes away by foot and the nearby Kensington High Street. Harrods can be walked to in under 15 minutes. The surrounding area of Kensington offers many excellent fashion shops, restaurants and bars and is the "up market" area of the city center.
All the Montana Hotel bedrooms are 100% fully renovated and refurbished with 8mb Wi-Fi Internet service complimentary, 26" LCD flat screen Interactive Television system providing over 500 tracks of pop, rock, classic, jazz and other music, radio, games and 30 pay-per-view films, air conditioning / climate control, complimentary internet connection, hairdryer, trouser press, seating area, direct dial telephone with voicemail, Sky Channels, room safe, central heating and multi country plug points.

The air conditioned public areas are of a high standard and comprise of a Lounge Bar with satellite television and an adjacent sitting area with comfortable couches.
Breakfast is served in the restaurant and is continental style comprising of orange juice, tea, coffee, jams and toasts. A full English Cooked breakfast is available at a small supplement. In the evenings, we recommend that you sample what is acknowledged to be one of the best Indian Cuisine in Kensington in the Montana's very own air conditioned restaurant "The Light of India".
If I were to pick my ideal area of London to stay in it would be South Kensington around the Gloucester Road tube area. This is a good safe area with superb transport links around the city and out to Heathrow airport, many local attractions including the Natural History Museum and Harrods, bars and restaurants to suit everyones taste and budget and its close to Hyde Park and the shops of High Street Kensington. Earls Court, Chelsea, Fulham and Knightsbridge are all close by.
The Montana Hotel is right in the centre of this area and just 3 or 4 minutes walk to the underground station at Gloucester road. In 2007, all the hotels bedrooms were totally refurbished to include all new furniture and beds, flat screen television and air conditioning. It retains the atmosphere of a family run hotel yet has the facilities of a 21st century hotel. Nice combination!
Hotel Assist Verdict:
Value for Money
Given the upmarket area and the new bedroom facilities we have to say is that the Montana Hotel offers good value for money up to a max for a 2 person room of £125, above this price check for alternatives. Guests have expressed disappointment at the meagre breakfast but we are informed that this will be upgraded shortly.
