Manson Place has an excellent location, near the Main Street and Tube station and yet the area is secluded and quiet. However, the rooms and the apartments were run down and the furniture were sad looking and so were the drapes. The owners should spend some money to repair and refurbish the units. As I have said before, with its... More

I stayed at 7 -8 Manson Place in apartment 14 from January 6 until February 3 ,2013. I had a most enjoyable stay ,thanks to the friendly manager David and his team of cleaners,who serviced the apt every second day. The apt is comfortable and very conveniently situated in South Kensington ,just around the corner from the Old Brompton road... More

Unlike some of the other reviews on Tripadvisor, we, as a family of 5 found the place, a welcome home with a central location rather posh locality right next to famous museums - A boon for the traveller. We were in Apartment No. 6 which is on the Ground Floor with a nice living room, decent kitchen and two bedrooms.... More

We were very happy with our studio apartment. Coming back to a warm place at the end of a cold and rainy day out in London was just great. Initially I was a bit disappointed with the standard of the apartment, a bit tired with scuff marks on walls, etc, but overlooking that, and after settling in for a self... More

I stayed in Flat 12 on the 3rd floor and had a comfortable stay in a reasonably well equipped apartment. This is an apartment block, not a 4 or 5 star hotel and expectations have to be tailored accordingly. There is a secure entry system with a small lift to the upper floors. Keys to biulding and flat are provided.... More

Not as web site appears stay away... NIGHTMARE! The staff are uninformed and not helpful!!! This place is owned/managed by Maykenbel Properties. I would be cautious of their other properties as well.

These apartments are in a London property formerly leased by Morgan Stanley Dean Witter. The apartments are extremely well located, being 5-6 minutes from South Kensington Underground; 2 minutes from the Anslow Gardens bus stop (C1 bus to Harrods) and right in the middle of a very active neighborhood of young college students, young professionals, and long-term London residents. There... More

We booked this place because our apartment in London is under renovation. The first think we sensed (apart the smell of the mountain of garbage located next to the mansion entrance door) was the lack of trust to these people. The second think we found out was that the mansions are popular to Indian families. That means that the smell... More

These apartments are NOTHING like the website portray.
