Coca-Cola Diner - breakfast buffet ( NH )

You know you are in good hands when a table laden with thoughtful spreads is placed at the entrance.

Clean and Cosy on the inside.

Holiday Inn Kensington Forum - Our Room

First thing we saw when we opened the door. Nice and simple with a flatscreen tv.

Coffee making facilities are above the mini bar

Turned our attention to the bed

Firm and inviting. No squeaks. Thank goodness.

Can't wait to sink into this sofa

Checked the closet.

Real bummer.There's no safe deposit box anywhere to be seen.

Bathroom next.

Tub and shower.

Enough towels and basic toiletries provided

Time to rest my weary head.

Holiday Inn Kensington Forum - Lobby

While the hotel is fairly easy to find since it's on the same tube line from Heathrow, be prepared to lug your luggage up two landings in the underground station as the lifts only start after that.

There'll be a doorman dressed in coat tails and top hat outside the revolving doors to greet guests. 

Nice touch that !

Concierge is where most go to book theatre tickets .

We were lucky to get Miss Encka at the reception. She was extremely helpful and professional all at once. A calm welcoming presence, especially after a long flight.

Two thumbs up ! Really appreciated.

Look at the bottom.

They're all decked out in the spirit of the games

That over and done with, we head inwards

Glass display round the corner to tempt you into picking up some keepsakes from the gift shop near the entrance
