Staff v friendly and quick check in. First hotel i have stayed at where you are issued 2 cards-one for room and one for lift/stair access. Would stay again."

"Comfortable hotel just over the road from Gloucester Road Station, so very convenient for getting around London. Attractive historic architecture & not over modernised & still retaining some lovely period details. The lift is fine, the rooms are clean & comfortable & the staff pleasant & helpful. Good continental breakfast, with wide selection of fruits, pastries, cereals etc. Delicious on site Indian Restaurant. "

"The Kensington is a quaint boutique hotel that I know I’ll want to return to! The restaurant, lounge, and tea areas are beautifully and tastefully decorated, offering a perfect balance of luxury and comfort while honoring the building’s historic charm in the most elegant way. It all feels lush and refined. The staff is outstanding—warm, courteous, and always ready to help. The doormen, in particular, add a special touch with their friendliness and thoughtful conversation while you wait for your ride. And the location? Possibly my favorite part. As a first-time visitor to London, I wanted to be close to the main attractions—but not too close. This hotel delivered exactly that. Tucked away in a quiet, upscale neighborhood, it felt like a peaceful retreat far from the hustle and bustle, yet I could easily walk to most major sights. A true hidden gem that feels like another world. All in all, it was a fabulous stay. I can’t wait to come back!"

"The staff and convenient are lovely. We were annoyed that the pool closed at the time posted but when we would show with an hour to close they would discourage us from using facilities. Other than this inconvenience, the stay was quite memorable. We will return as guests again."

"Updated yet great London character. "
