Entrance to Ashburn Hotel in Kensington

Description

Two ways to stay in Kensington, with a boutique hotel for effortless city breaks and serviced apartments for greater independence.

Why stay in Kensington?

Kensington brings together many of the qualities people imagine when planning a London stay: elegant architecture, important museums, green space and straightforward connections across the city. It can feel cultural and cosmopolitan, yet residential streets are never far away.

Hotel room or serviced apartment?

The right choice depends on how you want to live while you are here. Ashburn Hotel is the collection’s boutique hotel, suited to guests who prefer the ease of a beautifully appointed room, 24 hour reception and attentive hotel service.

Ashburn Court offers serviced apartments for guests who value more space and independence. Separate living areas, fully equipped kitchens and in apartment laundry facilities are particularly helpful for families, work trips and longer stays.

What can you do nearby?

Walk towards South Kensington for the Victoria and Albert Museum, Natural History Museum and Science Museum. Continue to Hyde Park for open space, or spend an afternoon between the shops and restaurants of Kensington and Knightsbridge. The neighbourhood works especially well when the day is left flexible.

Which stay is best for you?

Choose the hotel when a compact, service-led base suits the rhythm of your visit. Choose an apartment when you would benefit from room to cook, work, entertain or settle into a family routine. Both provide a considered London address and a team ready to help arrange the practical details of your stay.
