South Kensington has held its place on the map as an area of cultural and scientific importance since the Great Exhibition of 1851, and some of the world's most prestigious museums and universities grandly line up along Exhibition Road, showcasing West London’s distinctive stucco style. With the Natural History Museum, Royal Albert Hall and V&A attracting such a vibrant mix of people, it's easy to forget that this is a residential area as well. Yet just by the Tube station is a continental style square often filled with locals breakfasting in the sun. Tucked behind the museums lie rows of mansion blocks, terraced houses clustering round pretty garden squares and fine examples of villa style housing. Residents tend to be professionals and the area is an unbeatable location for shopping, with two of London’s most iconic department stores nearby. The jewel in South Kensington’s dazzling crown is surely its proximity to the historic and beautiful Hyde Park.

Kensington emotes regal elegance. Old-world buildings seamlessly blend with the glass windows of artisanal cheese shops, pastry bakeries, and international consulates, lending the neighbourhood an air of polished refinement and perfect finishing. Its opulence doesn’t detract from the neighborhood’s inviting nature—Kensington Gardens, Kensington Palace, and the area’s myriad museums are frequented by locals and visitors alike.

South Kensington is one of London’s most affluent areas, that boasts an unbeatable range of free museums and beautiful open spaces, alongside its more up-market attractions. The Natural History Museum, Science Museum, and Royal Albert Hall are within walking distance of each other, connected by Exhibition Road. The Great Exhibition in Hyde Park in 1851 created the foundations for these grand institutions dedicated to the arts and sciences. It was this investment in the area that set in motion a building spurt of large terraced houses which give the district its current appearance as a high-class residential area.

Getting Around:
South Kensington has better transport links than most parts of South West London. The area is served by three tube stations, South Kensington, Gloucester Road, and Earl's Court which are all on the Piccadilly, District and Circle lines. As a result, a journey to Central London via Piccadilly Circus takes just 8 minutes, while East London is just a 24-minute ride away via the Circle Line.

Other Things to Note:
Fresh bed linen, towels, fluffy pillows, toiletries and other necessities are provided for a comfortable stay. Our 24/7 support team will also be available if you ever needed anything more.
We kindly request that you read the house rules prior to booking and respect them during your stay. Parties or events of any kind will not be tolerated. Violation of this rule will result in eviction from the property and charges for any damages or additional cleaning required. Thank you in advance for your cooperation!

Not the best
Booked as a brief stop gap in the midst of heavy itinerant work for 24/25th December. Just wanted a nice place for two nights where I could cook for myself in a nice area so paid a little more for it's Kensington postcode. Step 1. The lockbox is in a needlessly clandestine location resulting in the police stopping me asking me what I was retrieving from under a bush (in the pouring rain). Get inside and decide just to make a coffee and watch the news to destress. Neither of the two TVs work (one no signal. One no power outlet available). Go to bed. Christmas Eve I was out all day (first awoken by police trying to trace one of the upstairs neighbours with loud knocking) and just grabbed some groceries on my way home. Christmas Day go to make breakfast and start prepping vegetables for my solo Christmas lunch to find that there are NO: knives, chopping boards, or oven trays. My main reason for choosing self-catering now all but denied me (I am an engineer with some tools and used to be a chef. I improvised). Add to this noisy neighbours upstairs (wouldn't have been an issue otherwise) and I fail to see how the accomodation matches the price tag. A nice flat in a nice area just woefully under-equipped

We had issues with this apartment and landlord
The apartment is nicely located, newly remodeled and very clean but the landlord could care less if you raise any issues. He provided only one set of keys which meant my wife and I had to make difficult arrangements to give each other access. The TVs didn't work and the landlord wouldn't fix them. There is no book of instructions for a very complicated Bosch oven and a clothes washer and beware the shower floor which is as slippery as a hockey rink. There are too many nice rentals in London to return to this place.

Excellent location for those new to London
It was my first time in London and the location was great since it was walking distance to a grocery store and restaurants/cafes. I would have given 5* but there are a few things that need to be addressed such as the bed mattress which you could feel the springs through and was quite uncomfortable. The wires and plugins were hanging from all of the TV's so don't expect to watch TV. Again something small to fix but would add more value to the stay. The book that was supposed to be left on the kitchen table was not there so I was a bit lost on how things worked in the flat and lastly a huge selling point for me was that there was working internet which unfortunately when I got there was not working due to the owner not paying his bill. All things that can be easily fixed before the next guest and would me a 5* stay
