Rezerviraj ovo ako You want a Kensington palace address with the privacy of an apartment and the service of a five-star hotel.
Zašto Ljudima Se Sviđa
- Direct views of Kensington Gardens from Park View apartments
- Ultra-private feel with only ~17 residences in the building
- Welcome hampers stocked with actual groceries (eggs, bread, milk) not just snacks
Brzi pregled: It’s less of a hotel and more like borrowing a wealthy aunt's Kensington mansion while she's summering in the Hamptons.
Pregledano od @conciergekate: I loved how spacious this felt. Waking up next to Hyde Park and having a full kitchen made my London trip feel so much more relaxed and local. The marble bathroom was a total highlight—felt like my own private spa every morning.
