The name of Xenia – is derived from the ancient Greek concept of hospitality shown to travelers from faraway lands. Travelers who arrive on the whitewashed and pillared doorstep of this elegant estate will find homey touches in modern surroundings – cheeky rustic fowl pillows bring a hint of English countryside to the big city.

It was my fourth stay at this lovely boutique hotel. As always, I got a free upgrade as a Gold Marriott Bonvoy member, which was much appreciated as well as a small refrigerator which was brought into my room. The room was well appointed with very comfortable bed and crispy clean sheets. The bathroom was small, but not tiny as in many London hotels (L’Occitane toiletries was a very classy touch). There was an unexpected power outage in my room, but I was promptly offered another room for the night and in the morning was upgraded to the king size room, which was just excellent. The hotel staff was very professional and understanding handling my room problem. In general, service is top-notch and this is one of many reasons I remain a loyal guest of this charming property. The welcome gift of delicious biscuits and chocolate was waiting in my room upon my arrival. It was so nice! The neighborhood is the absolute best - there is no place like South Kensington to make me blissfully happy. The museum quarter is 15 minutes walk from the hotel as well as Royal Albert Hall and Kensington Gardens. And having Sainsbury Supermarket around the corner is a huge plus. The Waitrose Supermarket is within five minutes walk. Thank you, lovely Xenia Hotel, for making my yearly trip to London so wonderful!

I had a wonderful stay at the Hotel Xenia in London. It's my favourtie place to stay for the incredible service in the hotel and the amazing London location. Staff was welcoming the room is lovely and the restaurant is delicious. Reccomend it especially if you look to go for a morning jog as Hyde Park is a mile away.

I spent four nights with my wife this October and it was a real pleasure staying at this hotel. The staff is super friendly in particular at the reception, but also at the restaurant where Albino and Gosha had pampered our breakfast time! The atmosphere is very friendly. They really make you feel at home.. their rooms are cozy , clean and very comfortable. This is not my first time at the Xsenia hotel and I will definitely come back.!!

We recently stayed at the Hotel Xenia for 8 nights while on a leisure trip to the UK. The location of the hotel in Earl's Court was great, a short 2 blocks from the tube station which has great access to the District, Circle, and Piccadilly lines. Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly by the front desk staff, assisted with our bags, and thanked for being Platinum Elite members. We were given an overview of the hotel, a summary of what to expect at breakfast and then handed our room keys, which was a room that had a balcony. While the balcony was amazing, the bed in the room was up against the wall which did not work for us. The front desk staff immediately changed us to a room that had a bed that had access from three sides, as we preferred, and took us to view the room prior to making the change. This change was much appreciated as we were there for a longer stay. While the rooms are compact, they are spotless and have everything required for a comfortable stay including coffee and tea making facilities, robes, slippers, and bathroom amenities. The AC was great as we also enjoy a cooler room. The bathroom had a large walk in shower with great supply of hot water and great water pressure. Breakfast was superb. A consistent selection of scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, sausages- pork and chicken, bacon, fried mushrooms, assorted pastries, cereals, fresh fruits, yogurts, and spreads. All items on the menu were also presented and available for order including avocado toasts, Eggs Benedicts, and poached eggs to order. I cannot say enough about the staff in the restaurant- we dined there every morning and for one dinner. By the second morning, we were greeted by name, our room number was known, as was our coffee order. Albino and Hassan were particularly personable and a delight to chat with but honestly all of the staff were, even when we did not specifically note their names. Overall a wonderful experience at Hotel Xenia!

Great location very close to 2 tubes and a wealth of fabulous restaurants within walking distances. As others have mentioned Haydar is fabulous, really fantastic service. Room has lots and lots of high end toiletries and fluffy robes etc etc. The rooms are just sooooo tiny. I know it's London but a 500$ a night i couldn't stay for more than 1 on business it's quite claustrophobic.
