Ember Locke Kensington was the perfect location for our family spring break. Quieter neighborhood to get good rest, close to Earl’s Court tube with three lines for quick connections through the city, a bus stop right in front of the hotel that’ll take you to the museums, and a Sainsbury’s around the corner to load up on groceries/snacks. Would definitely stay again!

This is a beautiful boutique hotel in a lovely part of London close to Holland Park, the Design Museum, the Natural History Museum, etc. Two great things about it are the incredible staff and the peaceful garden in the back. I will certainly return just for that!
