A tasty beginning to the day.
You'll be treated to a substantial, freshly prepared breakfast which is really delicious. You can either have a classic English fry-up or go for cereals, fruit and yoghurt. It'll set you up well for the day ahead.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Not the biggest.
While the guestrooms at Kelvin House are generally comfy, a few of them are rather on the small side. Indeed, in some of them there isn't the room to store your suitcases. Similarly, the bathrooms can be very cramped as well.
negative:
Getting online isn't always easy.
Sometimes, using the Wi-Fi is a little tricky. It doesn't always work very well in guestrooms, so you might find that you have a bit of trouble getting connected.
negative:
Be sure to get a spot.
The hotel has a free car park, but it isn't the biggest, so if you don't get a place you'll have to find a space on the street.
