We had a wonderful stay at The Kensington. The hotel was clean with nice rooms and accommodations. Overall, it was a great atmosphere in a perfect location. The staff was exceptional. Pavel, Gurcan and the rest of the concierge, door, dining, service and management staff went out of their way to ensure we had a wonderful experience. They could not have been nicer. It was the best hotel staff we have ever had the pleasure to experience. We highly recommend The Kensington to anyone visiting London.

Probably the best hotel in London. If Carlsberg made hotels......

We stayed at The Kensington this weekend, when we were at the Albert Hall to see Last night of the Proms. We had a great room, some lovely cocktails and a superb breakfast. Got to be the best hotel in London. The Kensington is our favourite hotel. Just amazing, and an amazing team. It’s those little things like a number of the team having Les Clefs d’Or golden keys. Levi (I think that is his name – Hungarian waiter/manager – lovely chap) showed us the little outside/inside table – we loved it. This is a boutique hotel. Not small, but not enormous. Just right. I love the decor inside, and I adore the tiffany blue cups that they have. I would highly recommend this hotel. It's the way that hotels should be. Personable, helpful, friendly etc
