    I found the room quite comfortable, and with Gloucester Road tube station just a few steps away, getting around to landmarks like the Victoria and Albert Museum and Hyde Park was super easy and enjoyable.

    great location
    storage limitations

    We had a wonderful time exploring the nearby Natural History Museum, which was a hit with the kids! The convenience of having a kitchenette in our room meant we could prepare quick meals for our little ones. The location is just a short walk to Earl's Court Station.

    In my wife’s opinion, extra storage solutions would be beneficial for families with children.

    Our stay at The Resident Kensington was fantastic! The room was cozy with a nifty little kitchenette perfect for late-night snacks and morning coffee. We loved the proximity to Earl's Court tube station, making it super easy to explore London. Plus, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit.

    The room was pretty small for two people.

    our stay at the resident kensington was realy nice! the room was small but super cozy with comfy bedding and high ceilings. loved the kitchenette with the nespresso and those nice molton brown bathroom products. the area was great too, just a short walk to earls court tube station and loads of pubs around! the staff were really friendly and made us feel welcome.

    the wi-fi was kinda slow sometimes and the room was a bit cramped for two people.

    convenient location
    complimentary drinks
    compact room
    noise disturbance
    breakfast availability

    Location near major tube stations made exploring easy. The complimentary welcome drinks were a delightful touch, enhancing the overall stay. the room was quite compact, which might not suit everyone. Noise from fellow guests occasionally disrupted the peace, and the lack of breakfast options was slightly disappointing, considering the quality of the other amenities.

    kitchenette facilities
    inefficient toilet

    We had a blast during our group trip! We explored the hidden treasures of the secret underworld and went on fascinating Hidden London tours to disused stations. Our room had a kitchenette that was perfect for preparing snacks, and the staff were super friendly and professional. The location was convenient, just a short walk to the tube, making our travels easy.

    The only downside was that one of the toilets in our room didn't flush efficiently, requiring multiple attempts to get it to work.

    bathroom issues

    Staying at The Resident Kensington felt like a little retreat in the heart of London. The easy walk to Earl's Court underground station made getting around effortless. I loved the kitchenette in my room. it came in handy for snacks and drinks. The Molton Brown toiletries were a touch of luxury that made the bathroom feel special. My king-sized bed was comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep after long days of exploring. The staff was always friendly and ready to help, which added a personal touch to my stay. The location was vibrant yet quiet enough for a restful sleep. the room size felt a bit tight, especially with multiple bags, and there were occasional issues with the flushing system in the bathroom, requiring multiple attempts to get it right. the hotel struck a great balance of charm and convenience.

    relaxation spots
    noise from guests

    We had a lovely time with the wine and prosecco waiting for us when we checked in, and the spacious bathroom was a much-appreciated bonus. The relaxation spots, like the cozy lounge and the outdoor terrace, were perfect for unwinding. The only downside was some noise from other guests, but it didn't really put a damper on our fantastic stay! 🍷
