After reading about the small size of some of the rooms, I elected to pay the quite reasonable upgrade fee and went for an executive suite. The room was large, with an extra sitting room with desk, second television and lounge. The hotel is close to both Holland Park and Shepherds Bush underground stations, and the bus stops right out...

Typical Hilton quality hotel but small room size, good breakfast but expensive. One of the most expensive hotel wifi, at £ 15.00 per day. Good concierge in their advise on the tours etc. Near the Westfield Shopping mall, 5 min away. Honest housekeeping: My wife left her wedding ring when we left, the housekeeping were able to find it and... More

I spent a lovely four nights at the Hilton Kensington. It was my first time in London and it is in a fantastic location. Holland Park is a lovely quiet suburb and it was nice not to be staying in central London. The hotel is just a walk away from the Shepherds Bush and Holland Park tube stations and there... More

My husband and I stayed here for one night only. The size of the room was above average to be in London. The reception area is really nice, but the room we were in was a bit tired. No major issue, but I was expecting more from a Hilton. There was absolutely no natural light in the room as we... More

I have had the joy of staying at this hotel a number of times. The staff has been excellent and is the major reason I continue to return. The rooms and comfortable and clean, and the beds sleep well. The location is near 2 tube stops and near a major bus stop, so it is easy to get around from... More

I stayed at the Kensington Hilton over the weekend and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys a very typically Hilton hotel, and needs to be in the Kensington area. The hotel is well served by the tube, being close to Shepherds Bush and Holland Park stations. I did some shopping at the excellent Westfield, caught the tube into... More

I was feeling a bit wary of staying in a London hotel, as they tend to be very impersonal.As we needed a twin room and as we booked online ,the only twin available was an executive room.We didn't realise until we arrived that this entitled us entry to the use of the executive lounge.This in fact made our stay a...
