My stay at the Adria was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was fantastic, close to Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens, and many attractions, but there were some service issues that needed improvement. The rooms were cozy but had some minor inconveniences. Although the dining options were satisfactory, there were discrepancies in the breakfast. Overall, a good option for those looking for a central spot in London.

The dining experience was exceptional, with a lovely selection of fresh fruit, bread, cheeses, meat, and pastries. Overall, a great value for the money.

I had a splendid stay at Adria for 4 days during my last visit to London in the Serpentine Executive Room. The rooms are large and pretty, stocked with amazing snacks, but I did feel a bit out of bed twice due to the beautiful tree they had in the drawing room. The service is top-notch with a sense of safety and privacy, but some staff seemed scared and uncomfortable at times. The location couldn't be better in South Kensington, close to the V & A and the Natural History Museum. The dining left something to be desired with areas for improvement in the buffet. Overall, a great experience in a beautifully renovated building.

The hotel has bright and spacious rooms with well-organized closets built into the paneling, perfect for meeting friends or visitors if the room space feels small for couples. The service, initially perceived as stiff and arrogant, gradually improved day by day. The location is ideal for sightseeing near museums, and the dining experience, while lovely, felt slightly limited. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few service hiccups to bear in mind.

The hotel is located in a beautiful area of London, close to everything. The rooms lacked warmth but were comfortable overall. The service was exceptionally helpful, although staff seemed uncomfortable at times. The dining options, while fresh and reasonably priced, could use improvement. The location is fantastic for exploring London, near underground stations and key attractions.
