Hotwire's packages list the "Gallery Hotel" as 3.5* and "Boutique Hotel, High-speed Internet Access"

... but currently the Tripadvisor information for the Gallery Hotel shows a 3.0/5.0 user rating with only 2 reviews, which is inconsistent with the information provided by HOTWIRE above.

I discovered an extremely odd thing on TripAdvisor. There are a lot more reviews for the Gallery Hotel in London, but somehow they have ended up placed under a Rome hotel:

Good find WillTravel!

If you look at the bottom of that page it states that this hotel (the Commodore) is also known as the Gallery London... i'm guessing the Commodore used to be called something else, and a mistake was made when they 'converted' the listings to the Commodore and it took all the posts from the Gallery and moved them all to the Commodore in Rome.

I had seen the Gallery before with these two amenities but discounted it since the TA info didn't match (wasn't even close). However, the TA info shown by HOTWIRE for this property matches that of the "mistaken" Commodore, so i would say that the Gallery London is a likely possibility for the above.

NICE collective effort everyone!

Now we just need the OP to purchase this and let us know :)

Thanks for the info WillTravel.

Also, Gallery Hotel is listed as 3.5 stars in the Hotwire packages listings. (note - searched HOTWIRE packages for a hotel/flight for May 27-31 to find the Gallery Hotel listing)

So are we saying that it is a very good chance that the hotel on offer is Gallery Hotel - 3.5* in Kensington?

[thereuare]

We're saying that the amenities match the Gallery Hotel, but while the Tripadvisor information doesn't match the info for this property, there may be an explanation for that.
