Reviews for The Kensington

A beacon in South Kensington

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 6 days ago

In an area filled with many small luxury boutique hotels, the Kensington remains one of the very safe values, where I like to go back regularly over the years. Well equiped rooms, nice decoration and very friendly service make a difference, not mentioning the fantastic breakfast served at the table, which I so much prefer over a buffet.

What a beauty this hotel is, a true gem. The staff are amazing. The food is incredible. It's wonderful, I can wait to come back next year. Special thanks and a shout-out to Daniella, who made our dinning experience 6 stars!

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.
