Tube station in less than 5 minutes walk distance. Many nice restaurants at the other side of the street. The hotel is in a peaceful neighborhood, 3 museums are in walkable distance. Staff are sweet and friendly. My room was small but very comfortable, clean , warm and cozy. Perfect for solo travel. My favorite place in London.

Check in was smooth and greeted by friendly and professional staff. The room was nice and clean with the advertised amenities. Others were available from reception on request. Bathroom had nice toiletries included. Shower was very good with good water pressure. Towels were luxuriously soft. Overall a fantastic 4* hotel which I will be returning to next time I’m in the area.

Dreadful seevice
Room was fine and bed comfy. My issue was that I booked this for after an event I was at and therefore didn’t arrive until 3.30am. A key reason why I chose this hotel was the advertised 24/7 reception desk. The staff on the desk were quite rude and informed me that they had marked my reservation as a no show and they may not be able to give me a room. I had paid in full. They didn’t apologise for this but told me to wait for around 15mins whilst they worked out if they could. I genuinely believe they would have sent me away however I expressed frustration and annoyance which then made them ask me to wait whilst they chatted to decide if they would help me. As a woman on her own I found the whole thing unbelievable uncomfortable and was made to feel like I had done something wrong. Would never stay again and would strongly recommend not staying as a solo traveller.

Lovely stay at the Resident Kensington
We had a lovely overnight stay at the Resident Kensington for a 60th Birthday and Anniversary. The staff were so polite and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. Our Room was spotless and extremely comfortable. Great location for the tube and in walking distance to Kensington High street. Would highly recommend this lovely Hotel for a stay in London.
