This property is in an excellent location for walking and enjoying the best of London. I stayed there with my daughter and could not have been happier with our choice. Though located in Central London, the street was very quiet and peaceful.

The property was in a beautiful neighborhood, close to museums, parks, eateries, shopping and public transportation. It was below ground level but illuminated by skylights, so it was bright and airy. Inside was comfortable and attractive. It was unusually hot in London while we were there, but with the portable fan going we were pretty comfortable anyway. The host was easy to communicate with.The description could have been clearer that the stairs to the front door were pretty steep and narrow - could be an issue for someone with mobility issues, but there was a good railing.There was internet access, but it was spotty at times. Having a washer and dryer was a plus.

We were visiting for my daughter’s graduation and this flat was the perfect place to stay. It was clean, warm and inviting! The location can’t be beat! Centrally located and so close to the tube. It was so nice after a long day to come back to the flat to relax and get a good night’s sleep. The beds are comfortable and the flat size was perfect for our family of four. We would definitely stay here again.

Everything about this rental was top notch! A well-equipped, clean and cozy flat. The skylights gave us natural light, and host Julie was most helpful and accommodating! The location was convenient with easy access to top attractions, yet letting us feel like local Kensington dwellers. Thanks!

Great stay for our family

We recently stayed in this London flat which fit our family of 4 great. The host was very responsive and the check in process was clear and simple. The location was fantastic, we found many great places to eat within walking distance, and the underground station is close too. Would recommend to check this place out if you are looking for a place to use as a home-base while you explore the city!

Amazing location and great value if you look for a 2BR at a reasonable price.Lovely place with 2 nice-size bedroom, the location is A and the neighborhood is stunning. We stayed for 3 nights and had all the necessities for the stay. There is a washer and dryer, dishwasher and enough kitchen utensils and cookware to stock up for breakfasts or dinners.It was very cosy and quite at night and the location allows for exploration of many of the London neighborhoods worth a visit, including Kensington, Notting Hill. Thank you for letting us visit!

Great location - enjoyable stay

We stayed at this apartment for three days. The location is great - good restaurants close by. Hyde Park at the end of the road and easy walk to Gloucester Rd underground. There was enough room for the four of us adults and the apartment was good and clean. Communication from the owner was fantastic, reponse to our messages very promptly.

Great rental in a wonderful neighborhood

We stayed here a few nights so we could see London before our cruise. I was thrilled with the neighborhood. We felt safe the entire time, even at night. The location was close to the subway system. And we also could walk to the Victoria and Albert Museum.
