The location is excellent and the room is very quiet (we stayed at the courtyard side). The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The great thing was also a laundry machine in the room! The colors of the room are not our favorites, and the rug and the lampshade are not our style but okay. Overall, a good place and the pizza place is good downstairs.

Perfect little apartment style room comfortable for a 2 night stay. Loved having a mini fridge, and cooking nook. Table was great to work from. No housekeeping so keep that in mind. Quick walk to Earls Court station, and Kensington High street. Friendly staff.

First off John at the front desk was great. Super friendly and checked us in quickly. The room we had was the studio suite. It came with a two burner stove, large fridge, a dishwasher and a washer dryer combo. Unexpected but perfect for our 10 day trip. The staff was always helpful but the room was only cleaned once for our stay. That was fine. We got toilet paper when we needed it and if you needed it you could tell the desk and housekeeping would empty your trash. The bed was very comfortable. The only issue was the tub/shower drained slow. All in all a great way to visit London.

The Ember Locke Kensington is chic with a laid-back vibe, and genuinely kind and friendly staff. The duplex room was unique, spacious, and well appointed—just the right amount of low-key luxury, and well worth the upgrade. We would stay there again without hesitation.
