About this property

Comfortable Flat in West Kensington Perfect for Business or Leisure

Welcome to my spacious (500sqft/50sqm) ground floor flat which is part of an original red brick Victorian townhouse in a residential part of West Kensington. With two well connected tube stations within 5 mins walk, all of London is really accessible

The flat, which has high ceiling throughout, consists of a light and airy double bedroom with double bed and comfortable therapeutic mattress. There is ample storage, an en-suite bathroom with a shower and bathtub, an additional separate guest toilet, a bright and cheery fully fitted kitchen which gives on to a spacious reception room which has a good sized double sofa bed and dining space. In addition there is a foldable baby cot for those traveling with a young child


TRANSPORT:
The flat is very close and equidistant to both Baron’s Court tube station (Piccadilly line, District and Circle line) and West Kensington tube station (District and Circle line), as well as all major bus routes meaning you can be in the centre of London (Oxford street, Piccadilly) within 20 mins.
The apartment is very close to Kensington High Street, Notting Hill, Knightsbridge and Chelsea. And is walking distance from the Kensington Olympia Exhibition Center and the Earls Court Exhibition Center - which can make it ideal for exhibition and events visitors.
- Heathrow: 35-45 min tube journey, depending on the terminal. 30-45 mins by cab depending on traffic
- Paddington (Heathrow Express): 20 min tube journey
- Kings Cross (Eurostar): 30 min tube journey.
- Victoria (Gatwick Express): 17 min tube journey

This is the perfect accommodation for those on business or for couples looking for a retreat from their daily explorations of the city.

LOCAL AREA:
Being centrally located there are lots of things to do in this area.

FARMER'S MARKETS, FOOD & EATING OUT:
Packed with locally produced tasty English delights the farmer’s markets occur every Thursday in Hammersmith, and every Saturday in Notting Hill, South Kensington and Sloane Square (all reachable on local transport from the apartment). The famous portobello market is nearby too. There are two mini supermarkets within the same distance as well as a large Flagship Tesco Superstore. If you want to eat out there are plenty of popular Gastropubs and casual eateries nearby. Further afield (10-15 mins) there’s a fantastic and diverse selection of restaurants, pubs and bars - just ask me for more info as i have lives in and around the area all my life!

PARKS: Holland Park and Hyde Park are very close by (reachable either by a short bus or tube ride). And there's an enchanting Victorian cemetery a 5 min walk away, perfect for reading and relaxing on a warm sunny day. Also Brompton Cemetery (used in many film locations) is a 15 min walk away.

WALKS: Thames river with all it’s secret spots is a 20 minute walk away.

SHOPPING: Not far from the flat is High Street Kensington, the famous Kings Road, Notting Hill, Westbourne Grove and the very modern and vibrant Westfield shopping center. A little bit further is high end Knightsbridge, where you will find the famous department store Harrods and neighbouring Sloane Street - home to some of the world's finest name brand boutiques

GALLERIES, MUSEUMS & ATTRACTIONS:
The V&A is just 10 minutes away on the tube. Next door to it is the Natural History Museum and close by, in Hyde Park, is the Serpentine. The Saatchi Gallery is very close too, as well as the Royal Academy of Arts and the Tate Britain.
For TENNIS lovers, the exclusive Queens Club, which hosts the annual Stella Artois Championships is just a stone's throw away

The bed

Communication with Faiza was excellent. The property is in a good neighbourhood with easy tube access. The major concern was the bed the mattress needs to be replaced. We woke with back aches every morning. Very uncomfortable.

Extended stay in London

We recently stayed two weeks in Faiza’s apartment. The booking and communication process with Faiza was seamless. He responded quickly to my questions and concerns and when we arrived, we were met at the apartment and explained the heating system etc. The apartment can be used for four people but more accommodating for two. I was there with my daughter and two granddaughters for one week. My granddaughters slept on a pullout sofa and said it was very comfortable. Having two bathrooms is very helpful, especially with four women! After they left my husband joined me and we made full use of the kitchen facilities which is well equipped. The apartment is very airy. There are other folks on an upper floor but it was very quiet. The only reason why I gave the review four stars is because the sofa is not the same as pictured in the photo. There is washer dryer combo which is very handy for an extended stay. The property’s location is a quick walk from two tube stops. Because Baron’s Court is on the Piccadilly Line getting to and from Heathrow is simple. We found places to buy groceries nearby and there are restaurants in the area. We had some lovely dinners at Curtains Up . Excellent takeaway meat pies can be purchased at the butcher shop right near the Baron’s Court Tube station. Try C’est Ici for baked goods, sandwiches and coffee. Earls Court is a bit further but certainly walkable and has much to offer. Overall the property is a find. The neighborhood is excellent and Faiza is a very good manger; I appreciated how he communicated and would definitely stay again.

Excellent location, flat, and communication

This flat is close to two Underground stations, and is situated in a quiet neighborhood. It is perfect for going into central London for the day, and then coming back to a quiet and peaceful place to rest. Clean and large, with everything you need to feel at home. The owner is very responsive to texts. We would stay there again.

Average

Upon arrival we received the keys from a young man waiting outside the flat. He handed the keys to us and left. We never met with Faiza but corresponded via emails. Although we requested two separate sleeping spaces months before arrival, only the bed in the bedroom was prepared. Wet sheeting and towels in the dryer was left in the laundry cubicle. We had to make up the couch bed in the lounge ourselves. The carpet in main bedroom is stained and filthy. The plumbing is in need of repairs. The flat is spacious and well equipped. Be careful of the dishwasher door though. It is heavy and falls forward to the floor. It slipped out of my hand onto my foot, quite painfull.There are 2 metros a few blocks away from the flat. A £200 deposit was taken when we booked. With currency fluctuation receiving the deposit back it cost me £25.

Bel appartement dans maison londonienne dans quartier résidentiel.

Bons souvenirs du séjour malgré quelques détails regrettables mais sans conséquence : accessoires de cuisine, eau chaude bruyante (et faible dans la cuisine), douche difficile à pratiquer, fenêtres mal isolées au froid, plancher sonore de l'étage au dessus.

Convenient Location and nice price

We were only there for 3 days and this place met all our needs. It had a nice kitchen but we ate all our meals out so we were just looking for something clean and convenient to the Tube. This met our needs. The bed left something to be desired as it was just a double mattress with no springs and for us was quite small. The furniture was nice but very modest and the sofa and chairs were all very low. Great for someone with short legs.

Experience London like a local

We were quite comfortable in this rental for a party of 4. It is in great location to two Tube stations. Although we experienced a heat wave during our stay. The fans provided kept us cool. Many shops restaurants and stores close by. Very convenient by train from Heathrow. We were also allowed to leave our luggage at earlier time before check in time. Would recommend this rental.

Excellent Stay

Ashil was accommodating and helpful, agreeing to meet me at the apartment at 8:30 a.m. and check me in then, much earlier than the standard check-in time, since my flight arrived at 6. He also promptly responded to all my questions. Much appreciated. The apartment was scrupulously clean, appeared as in the photos and description, and was comfortable and well equipped. There were plenty of towels and a great shower. The upstairs occupants or their guests were noisy one night, but the apartment was otherwise quiet, happily well into the morning. I really liked not having to drag bags up or down any stairs. I also liked the neighbourhood feel of South Kensington and the proximate location of a grocery store, ethnic restaurants and two pubs. Best was the location about 10 minutes away of underground stations for two of the most useful subway lines, one a short, direct ride to Heathrow.

Great place to stay!

We (three of us) were in for London 4 days, and this flat gave us convenient access to the city via the Baron Court Station. The owners were very helpful -- providing directions for getting to the flat and checking on us to make sure we had everything we needed. It was nice to have a great shower and room to spread out and relax at the end of a long day of sightseeing. Great little kitchen! I would recommend this flat.

Quiet, clean, and convenient!

Flat was clean and conveniently located to 2 tube stations for lines we used most frequently - Piccadilly and District. Neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe. It was also an easy walk to a SixT car rental office for when we left London for a couple days (less expensive than when you pick up at an airport lot). Owner responded very quickly and courteously to all inquiries - really enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful place to stay in London!

We love staying at the flat in West Kensington. So close to the tube, easy access to groceries and very comfortable and clean. It was nice having a washer and dryer, however, if you are coming from the US, you may not be accustomed to the small washer/dryer combos. Does very small loads and the dryer is inefficient - great for getting caught up with some essentials though. Ashil and Faisa were very accommodating and turned us on to one of the best Indian meals we'ver ever had. At a pub surprisingly, not far from the flat called Warwick Arms I think. We only had 3 days, and would have been happy to stay longer!

very clean, nicely furnished appartment in a quiet location.

We spent a relaxing and enjoyable 9 days in London, using this very pleasant airy, ground floor appartment as our base. The close proximity to public transport made the car during our stay unnecessary. A secure private parking space for the duration was found just around the corner through JustPark.com. A 15 minute walk to the Thames made it ideal to watch the Boat Race from a great position. All facilities in the property matched the description and all worked, except for the toaster. Shops, pubs and small cafés were all in walking distance in this vibrant west London community. The nights were undisturbed by traffic or loud neighbours. Ashil and his wife were very helpful there was no trouble picking up the key. I would recommend the flat to anyone and would consider booking it again at a future date.

Great little flat

This was a great little flat to stay in whilst we were looking for more permanent accommodation in London. As it's within walking distance of two train lines it was really convenient to get around. There are also several cute delis, wine shops and grocery stores nearby. Whole Foods, bars, pubs and restaurants as well as more shopping options are a 20-25 minute walk away (or a couple of stops on the train). Ashil was very responsive and we really appreciated being able to check in a bit early after a long flight!

Fantastic modern apartment!

Wonderful location close to two Tube stations, shopping, restaurants, pubs, etc. Safe, well kept, quiet neighborhood just a short Tube ride from all the London sights. The apartment is large, with modern but very comfortable furniture. The kitchen has everything you need including a large fridge, oven, and dishwasher. The washer/dryer was useful. My favorite part of the day was gazing out the kitchen window watching the yellow cat sunning on the garden wall. Lots of birds in the garden too! Thanks for a memorable vacation for my daughter and I.

We enjoyed our stay at Ashil's apartment. There was an issue with the water temperature in the shower, however Ashil compensated us adequately to make up for the inconvenience. We definitely recommend this listing and would consider staying here again!
