Umberto's

Umberto's:

Calling all culture vultures: we’ve found your perfect perch. Umberto's is only a pleasant ten-minute amble away from South Kensington’s renowned galleries – the V&A, the Natural History Museum and the Science Museum. Spend your days there, admiring dinosaurs and double helixes, before resting up in this arty attic. It’s got everything you might need: a fully-stocked kitchen, books to read, a big TV to watch, a bigger bathtub for sore feet and soft bedding to happily collapse into.

Home truths:
* The flat is up four flights of stairs with no lift so maybe don't bring your biggest, heaviest luggage with you if you decide to stay here
* One of our guests thought the bed was too hard but whether or not this bothers you will depend on your mattress preferences - up to you!
* If you're a group of three, one of you will be on a sofa-bed in the living space
* The kitchen isn't huge and feels slightly on top of the living area
* We didn't have any problems on our visit, but one guest has mentioned that the key safe (where you will usually collect your keys from) isn't the easiest thing to open
