We had a wonderful stay in this quiet, safe part of Kensington—my favorite area in London. The location is excellent, with Bus 74 right outside and the Tube just a 5-minute walk away. Check-in was easy, and the staff were friendly and very accommodating. Our room was ideal for two—clean, well-sized, and well-equipped. Strong water pressure in the shower and smart use of storage like ample hooks made the space very functional. Decor throughout the hotel including our room was beautifully designed. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

The property was absolutely breathtaking. We loved the aesthetic, the hospitality, and the convenience of this location. It was difficult to control the heat in our room (we were there in early spring, and it was quite warm in the room), but we opened windows to accommodate this.
