I needed an apartment for our first days in London due to traveling with a family of five, but was skeptical of those companies who wanted all of our payment upfront. So, I found this apartment via London friends. They wanted a deposit but then accepted payment upon arrival. The apt was in an excellent location off of Kensington High... more

The Allen House met all my expectations during a four day stay this past week. We own a time share for a one bedroom unit but I was assigned a two bedroom unit (#22) on the Fourth (British Third) floor in the front of the building.

Close to Kensington Palace and Hyde Park. We walked, but it is a long walk--nice on a nice day. Groceries available nearby. Starbucks across the street. Busy area, so there... more
