This flat is in a great location with shops, restaurants, and museums within walking distance. Public transportation options are also close by so one can easily get anywhere in London. The flat was spotless and the beds comfortable. Kitchen is small but well-equipped. All in all, we had everything we needed for a lovely stay. Highly recommended!

This is a lovely, spacious, comfortable, clean apartment in an historic building. The pictures are very accurate. It is conveniently located minutes from both the Gloucester Road and South Kensington tubes stations. We used Gloucester Road mostly because a Waitrose supermarket is right there. The Natural History, Science, and V&A museums are easy walks, Kensington Gardens is a few steps further. There are many restaurants in the area and a French cinema showing interesting films close by. The beds were super comfortable. The main bedroom is listed as a king bed but would be considered a queen in the US. One bath has a tub/shower combo that is difficult to get into and out of because the tub sits on a small platform and the tub itself high sides to step over. This situation is the reason for 4 vs 5 stars. It could probably be made safer with grab bars. We switched to the second bath which is equipped with a large walk in shower. We used the small kitchen just for breakfast and simple lunches or dinner, As a basement apartment there are 12 narrow steps down so it might not be suitable for those with mobility issues. The hosts are easy to reach and responsive.

Spacious, Clean and Convenient Stay

We had a great stay at Queens Gate Kensington. The location was ideal for Tube transport along with being within walking distance of many attractions. The flat was spacious and the host was very easy to work with. The beds are advertised as king size but appear to be queens. We had a wonderful stay and would recommend this flat to others visiting London!

Great!

Great apartment and even better neighborhood. No complaints! Minor comment would be that since it’s a basement apartment we did hear the people above at times.

Excellent city flat

Quite lovely flat, well appointed, and well supplied in an area of London, South Kensington, we like a great deal. Fine restaurants and pubs nearby. Located close to major museums--Natural History and the V&A. Close to Underground stops. Close to grocers and other stores. Great area for city walking. We would definitely book the flat again if age and energy permits.

Fantastic London family trip

Rented this flat for a trip to celebrate my father’s 80th birthday in London with my farther, husband, and 9 year old daughter. The listing was accurate, flat was spotless, amenities were great, beds were comfortable, location was unbeatable! Communication was clear and timely. Greatly appreciated the heads up about the steps to basement flat. Wonderful trip at a wonderful rental!

Location, location, location and home comforts

The property manager arranged a taxi for us from the airport. Cyril was very entertaining and saved us the challenge of finding the apartment after a long flight, and gave us our keys. The apartment met all the description details. The location is two blocks away from the Glouster Rd. tube station and the South Kensington station in the other direction. We never ate at the same restaurant ethnicity twice in the area, and enjoyed walking through the neighborhood exploring. I'd stay there again in a heartbeat.

Fabulous location/lovely flat

This is a wonderful place to stay in London. It is a very spacious flat, nicely appointed, and a terrific location. The beds are very nice, and there is plenty of light. The kitchen is small, but has everything, including a dishwasher (which is not always a given in these types of flats). We had very cold weather during our visit, and the heat worked perfectly. We had a great week there and would definitely stay here again. It is important to know that this is a basement flat and there are steep stairs down to the property. Our family had all ages and everyone managed it fine, but it might not work for some. You also need to meet any delivery folks at the street level, as they are confused how to find the flat (you do not go to the main door of the building).

Hello Debra, Thank you for the review. We are pleased you enjoyed your time in London and the flat. Basement flats are always described as such because we know they are not for everyone. However, we have taken your specific advice in hand and will continue to add/ improve the property's intimate details for our guests. Looking forward to your next stay. Thank you very much.
