About the Hotel

With the flair of a private European club and the charm of an Old World mansion, The Kensington Hotel is a classic but contemporary luxury hotel in one of London's most exclusive neighborhoods. This exclusive retreat rests gracefully among London's most respected museums and enticing shopping venues, all an easy walking distance for hotel guests. Visit the Natural History Museum in the morning, and spend a lavish afternoon at Harrods - all with plenty of time to be back in your room for a relaxing soak in a marvelously Victorian-designed bath. Your senses will be delighted by rich textures, details and forms on the fabrics, as well as authentic period furniture. Guest rooms also feature bay windows, fireplaces, wood floors and original artwork.

Reviews for The Kensington

Incredible

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

My friend and I were visiting London for a long girls trip and George and Arman were the best concierges we have ever experienced. They took us under their wing and helped to plan the most special trip. I cannot recommend this hotel enough…. Truly a unforgettable experience.

Absolutely fantastic - lovely hotel, and Tom Keating, the Guest Relations manager, pulled out all the stops for us. We will definitely be staying here on our next London visit.

Great hotel, service, location - like a home away from home

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 5 days ago

Terrific hotel, with a perfect location in Kensington near Chelsea FC, shopping, Hyde Park/Kensington Gardens, museums, tube, Thames and Battersea, as well as an easy trip back and forth to Heathrow. Highly recommend staying here for the home away from home feel, a boutique experience without being fussy. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff who want to accommodate and help.

Enjoyed roundy birthday celebrations at the Kensington Hotel on Saturday. Thomas Keating is the best guest relations manager I have ever encountered, a fabulous ambassador for the hotel. He made our experience truly memorable, thank you Tom. x
