Crackling fires, boutique bedrooms and fine-polished service in this Kensington town house hotel make a quintessentially British stay that ticked all our city break boxes
Location
This hotel is a short walk from South Kensington tube station on the leafy Queen’s Gate. The Kensington, housed in a row of townhouses built in the 1770s, is also within strolling distance of Chelsea for some shopping or neighbourhood pub-hopping and Hyde Park for early autumn rambles.
