Neighborhood

Kensington is a timeless picture-postcard view of London– a vista of smart townhouses, Royal Parks, great Victorian museums and garden squares. To a large extent, it’s an upmarket area full of hotels, embassies and show homes of the super-rich, given all the more glamour by the area’s royal connections. Kensington High Street runs through the heart of the neighbourhood, but its high-street stores and office blocks are unrepresentative of the exclusivity of the surrounding residential enclave, much of which is covered by a conservation area. South Kensington, where those famous museums are located, is at one end and has its own character. Kensington proper is roughly bounded by Kensington High Street to the south, Notting Hill to the north, Holland Park to the west and Hyde Park to the east.
Eating: A long-standing local favourite, Maggie Jones’s has the aura of a country farmhouse kitchen with a reliable British menu. Decked out with rock memorabilia and offering American-style burgers and ribs, Sticky Fingers is owned by Rolling Stone Bill Wyman. Overlooking Kensington Gardens, Zaika offers modern Indian dishes in a dining area boasting attractive wood-panelled and silk-draped furnishings. If it’s Michelin stars you’re after, head to Kitchen W8, which pulls off the rare trick of blending fine dining with a friendly, laid-back atmosphere.
Drinking: Trailing plants, antiques and bunting hang from the rafters of the Churchill Arms on Kensington Church Street. Its range of cask ales and reasonably priced Thai menu are popular with locals and visitors alike. The terrace at The Scarsdale Tavern spills onto the Georgian Edwardes Square, and offers a hearty gastropub menu. The latest in craft beers and hipster bar snacks are served at the Hansom Cab on Earls Court Road. For late-night partying and cocktails, HYDE Kensington ticks the boxes.
Culture: The Design Museum relocated in 2016 to the listed Commonwealth Institute building in Kensington, which was repurposed for its use. The museum’s collections and changing line-up of exhibitions, talks and workshops celebrate innovation and creativity in design of everything from table lamps to rocket ships. Preserved for the nation by the Victorian Society, 18 Stafford Terrace is a time capsule of 19th century life, which is open to the public. The home of Punch cartoonist Edward Linley Sambourne and his family, it is an example of a ‘house beautiful’ and richly decorated with objects from Japan, China and the Middle East.
Events: One of the country’s foremost exhibition and conference centres, Olympia London holds over 200 events a year. It covers everything from toy fairs and travel shows to the International Horse Show.

Transit

Rail: Mainline rail stations are within easy reach via the Piccadilly, Circle and District lines. Kensington (Olympia) provides a link with the London Overground network.
Tube: High Street Kensington, Gloucester Road and South Kensington are all on the Circle and District lines. The Piccadilly line also links South Kensington and Gloucester Road to the West End in around 10 minutes, and in the other direction, to Chiswick, Ealing, Hounslow and Heathrow Airport. In addition, Kensington (Olympia) in Zone 2 serves the western part of Kensington.
Bus: Many buses pass through the area, allowing easy connections to the West End, mainline railway stations and destinations in west and south London. The number 9 goes to Trafalgar Square, and the 10 to Oxford Street and King’s Cross. The number 27 connects with major intersections Paddington, Marylebone and Baker Street.
Road: The A4 Cromwell Road provides a link to the West End to the east and to Hounslow and Heathrow Airport to the west. To the south is Fulham Road, which connects South Kensington with Fulham and the south-west.
Cycle: Changes to the layout of Kensington High Street have resulted in a more pedestrian and cycle friendly environment. There are also cycle routes through the Royal Parks.
Getting away: The major railway stations are all quickly accessible by tube. The journey time to Heathrow Airport Terminals 1, 2 and 3, via South Kensington on the Piccadilly line, is about 42 minutes. A quick tube hop to Victoria gives access to the Gatwick Express.
