My wife & I stayed for a week. The hotel was cosy, with the rooms a little small, but it is London and that's to be expected.
The highlight was the position - right on Gloucester Rd tube station which is on the circle/district lines...More

With its ivied mews, row upon row of Poppins-esque white washed mansions, and placid garden squares, it's easy to see the charms of South Kensington. And with superb access to Hyde Park, Holland Park and Kensington Gardens, as well as the largely child-friendly and mostly free Museum Quarter (not to mention more major attractions like Royal Albert Hall) such charms are easy to make the most of.

Sorry for the delay! It's 2:00 BUT; the staff was amazing at accommodating our luggage while waiting for the room to be ready. As we had an outing planned we pressed for an even earlier admittance. We may have had access around 1:30 but it still was close to 2:00.
Best!

Madam Tussauds is about a 10-15 minute tube ride away (nearest tube station is Baker street). The zoo is further on from Tussauds, I'd guess it's a further 20 minute walk. It would be a heck of a lot to do both Tussauds and the zoo in one day, I'd advise against that.

I will also be traveling with 2 children. What room type did you use to accomodate. We have booked the Kennsington suite but worried the sofa bed may not be adequate.
