Hotel Details

Location

In the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea, 5 minutes from Holland Park and High Street Kensington, and a 15-minute walk to High Street Kensington Tube (District and Circle lines).
The hotel sits on Holland Road in a residential area, a 5-minute walk to Holland Park and High Street Kensington's shops and restaurants. High Street Kensington Tube station (District and Circle lines) is about a 15-minute walk, with direct links to Oxford Circus, Covent Garden, and South Kensington museums. Kensington Olympia overground station is next door (District Line on weekends) and provides additional connections. Westfield Shopping Centre is a 10-minute walk. Bus stops are nearby, and a 9 bus route takes about 4 minutes to reach the city centre. Several restaurants, cafés, and a pub (Crown & Sceptre) are within a 1-minute walk. Car parking is not available on site; the nearest public car park is at Westfield, a 10-15-minute walk. Road-facing rooms can be noisy from traffic, especially with windows open.

Accommodation

Rooms are in a Victorian townhouse, accessible by stairs only; some have private bathrooms while others use shared facilities on a different floor.
The hotel offers single, twin, triple, family, and quad rooms. Some rooms are in the annexe. Private bathrooms include a shower and WC. Shared bathrooms are on the first floor but may be located on a different level than the room-the top-floor shared bathroom is accessible only by climbing three flights of stairs. Rooms with shared bathrooms typically have a washbasin in the room. Standard room size is about 12 m², though some are noticeably compact. Some rooms feature city views or overlook the garden; garden-facing rooms tend to be quieter. There is no air conditioning, and windows must be opened for cooling, which lets in street noise on the road side. Heating, carpeted floors, flat-screen TVs, free toiletries, and hairdryers are provided. No coffee- or tea-making facilities in the room. Linens and towels are replaced daily. Rooms are cleaned each day when requested. Road-facing rooms can be noisy due to traffic, and upper-floor rooms on the road side may be less suitable for light sleepers.

Dining

Café44 on the ground floor serves breakfast from 7:30 AM to 12:00 PM with pastries, sandwiches, house-blend coffee, hot chocolate, and banana milkshakes.
Café44 is an on-site café offering a range of breakfast items: pastries, sandwiches, toast, and hot drinks including a signature house-blend coffee and hot chocolate. Breakfast is not included in the room rate and is available for a reasonable price. The café also acts as an information point providing maps and local recommendations. Guests may take their coffee to the Victorian lounge with an open fire and library. There is no bar in the hotel, but a pub (Crown & Sceptre) is a 1-minute walk away. Numerous other dining options-Pizza Express, Frank's Sandwich Bar, Shandeez, Hare&Tortoise, The Hand and Flower, Alborz, Fitaly, and Costa Coffee-are within a 0.3-0.5 km walk.

Wellness and Leisure

Holland Park, with its gardens and Kyoto Garden, is a 5-minute walk away; the shared lounge features an open fire and a small library.
Holland Park is a 5-minute walk from the hotel, offering gardens, walking paths, and the serene Kyoto Garden. The hotel's shared lounge includes an open fire and a small library, providing relaxation space indoors. There is no on-site pool, spa, or gym.

Top Strategic Tips

    Book a room with a private bathroom and a garden-side view to avoid noise and shared facilities.

  • 02

    Use the free luggage storage after checkout to explore the area before departure.

  • 03

    Request a room on a lower floor to minimise stair climbing-there is no lift and rooms are spread over three floors.
