The room, although a tad small, was very clean and had everything I needed including working air conditioning. Towels and toiletries were provided. Shower was hot but the water pressure could have been a bit higher. Overall, a very pleasant stay and was great value for money considering its' location.
Limited choices for breakfast compared to the cost, we were offered fresh cooked eggs when noticed we were unhappy with the selection, which was very much appreciated. The front desk friendly and room and surrounding areas very clean. The location was EXCELLENT for activities and transportation.
Nice breakfast, clean rooms, spacious bathroom, quick walk to subway/underground station. Very safe and quiet neighborhood. Excellent service and staff.
We stayed for one night and the location is fantastic — a very short walk to Gloucester Road Underground and easy to reach Kensington High Street and Kensington Gardens, with plenty of amenities nearby.
The room was clean and functional, although quite small and only had space for one bedside table. Unfortunately, we were placed in a basement room between the lift and the breakfast room. The soundproofing was very poor and we were woken early by staff setting up breakfast. Our window also backed onto what seemed to be a generator or air conditioning unit that ran constantly throughout the night.
Breakfast was okay. Overall, we would only recommend staying here if you are in a room away from the basement, as the rest of the hotel may offer a much better experience.
I loved stay at The Villa Kensington, it was clean, the staff were amazing and prompt. I highly recommend staying and I will stay here again on my next trip.

Liked: Staff & service
A nice hotel if you’re just looking for a standard room to sleep in before heading out to sightsee during the day. The room was pretty quiet, no traffic noise or anything like that. And it was warm and fairly clean. The bed was a bit uncomfortable but not too bad. And the hotel is really close to the tube station so really handy getting to local theatres and attractions and it’s also close to fast food and coffee shops and grocery stores
Excellent location for using the tube to get around. The staff was professional and kind and always willing to help with questions. I would definitely recommend for a reasonable, very good stay.
Loved it all, I left y luggage and enjoyed the walk about the shops. Close to Underground Tube. Lovely neighborhood. Great staff. Modern yet traditional outside.
