Fine Suite Experience

“I stayed in the magnificent splash suite for my partner's birthday, and it truly has the wow factor! The suite consists of three distinct rooms: a spacious living area, an expansive bedroom, and an enormous bathroom with a luxurious two-person Jacuzzi. Every room is equipped with TVs, and I loved the thoughtful touch of the TV positioned by the Jacuzzi. It was a good experience overall!” view full review

During my stay at The Exhibitionist Hotel, I was captivated by the quirky interior design and the friendly staff who were always willing to assist. However, the breakfast experience left much to be desired, as it was slow to set up and limited in options. Overall, the location was perfect for exploring nearby attractions like the Natural History Museum. 🏛️✨

My stay at The Exhibitionist Hotel was a mixed bag. While the quirky atmosphere and proximity to attractions like the Natural History Museum were excellent, there were significant concerns regarding room maintenance and customer service.

My stay at The Exhibitionist Hotel was quite the rollercoaster! The funky decor and comfy beds were definitely highlights, and the location near the Royal Albert Hall was super convenient. However, I faced some issues with service, like delays with cocktails and miscommunication about room amenities that really dampened the experience.

Rooms

I stayed in a superior double room that was smaller than I expected and lacked adequate space for my belongings. The decor was nice but felt a bit off from the photos I saw. The air conditioning also had issues, making the room uncomfortably hot.

Service

The staff were friendly overall, but I felt let down by the service quality. For example, I didn't receive the birthday balloons I asked for or the Prosecco, and everything seemed to take longer than it should have.

The room service options I tried were decent, and I appreciated how convenient it was to order food and drinks. However, the quality didn't meet the 5-star expectation, leading me to order from local places instead.

The hotel features a quirky vibe, especially in the lobby, but some facilities could use improvement. I expected more luxury amenities given the price tag.

My recent stay at The Exhibitionist Hotel was truly enjoyable, with a vibrant atmosphere that immediately caught my eye. The quirky decor and excellent cleanliness made the stay pleasant, but the room I was given was smaller than I expected for a luxury king. The staff's attentiveness was impressive, yet I did encounter a minor issue with room size that slightly affected my overall experience.

Rooms

My room was modern and clean, but honestly, it felt a bit cramped. I expected a spacious 'ultimate luxury king' room but found it less roomy than advertised. However, the amenities like a coffee machine and quality toiletries were a nice touch.
