This was perfect place to stay for an event I attended in Kensington. Nice staff, a large, well-run hotel, a 3-minute walk from Kensington High Street Tube.
Excellent location, spotlessly clean and comfortable room. A tad dated decor wise but exactly what was needed in terms of an overnight stay.
Convenient parking.
Excellent breakfast and very good evening meal.
Attentive staff throughout.
Will definitely stay again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Nice staff, good service and clean hotel room! Hotel is a bit old, ventilation was below par (windows couldn’t open).
All the staff were friendly and helpful, and the facilities were clean and modern. I was extremely satisfied with my stay at Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington.
The staff was incredibly nice. Special mentions to Jameela (spelling might be off) for being incredible and arranging super smooth early check-in, and to Sodiq for all his help and kindness.
Everyone here does their best to help you and arrange what you need.
The location is also hard to beat: 1 min away from High Street Kensington, which is both a station on the circle and district lines, and a street full of good restaurants (Yashin is pretty top notch)

We stayed at Tara hotel for 2 days and were really impressed with the space and amenities provided. The cleanliness was great and beds were comfortable. The location was convenient for travelers likes. Overall the stay was pleasant highly recommended 👍
Generally it was very good, staff were very polite and helpful. Check-in and out were smooth.
Comfy bed, useful that there is a microwave downstairs that guests can use.

Staff were very welcoming.
Room very clean but very outdated.
Aircon/heating worked but took a long time to ‘kick in’
