Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington

Th elocation was excellent too. I will stay there again."

STG Hotel London Oxford Street

10/10 Excellent

"The check in/out process was very organized with options for early arrival or late departure (for a fee) which was very helpful to me. Everyone was friendly and professional. The room was clean and bed comfortable but being earplugs for city traffic and car horns of you are a light sleeper. Common are carpets in my wing need to be replaced but my room carpets were clean. Overall great stay! Great location!!"

Royal Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A Wonderful Stay at The Royal Garden Hotel, London The Royal Garden Hotel right next to Kensington Gardens and Kensington Palace, and within easy reach of Hyde Park. The hotel is very conveniently located, just a five-minute walk from High Street Kensington Station. It is also not far from central London, and the No. 9 bus stop right outside the hotel, providing a direct and convenient connection to the city centre. Our room was clean, beautifully presented and very comfortable. The bed linen and duvet were lovely, and we slept very well every night. The hotel’s Western-style buffet offered a wide variety of delicious food. All the staff were warm, friendly and helpful. We would especially like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Ryan and Frenco at the front desk. When they learned that I needed to print a contract in Chinese, they immediately went out of their way to help me, without any hesitation. We are truly grateful for their kindness and thoughtfulness. We wish them both happiness, good health and every success in life. We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to another member of the front desk team, a tall, slim lady with curly hair, whose name I unfortunately forgot to ask. We greatly appreciate her kind assistance during our stay. We absolutely loved this hotel. We stayed for 12 days, and our experience left us with many wonderful memories. If we visit London again, we will definitely choose The Royal Garden Hotel once more!"

Bluedaws Private Hotel

8/10 Good

"This is a budget hotel. If you are willing to stay at a budget place, with a shared washroom, I'd highly recommend this place because it is so close to Paddington Station, and a quick walk through Hyde Park takes you to some of the major museums and pick-up spots for many of the tours that go out of London. The staff are lovely."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Barbican?

The Barbican Centre and its surrounding residential areas are the best places to stay when visiting Barbican.

The Barbican Estate is a large, iconic Brutalist complex known for its distinctive architecture, tranquil gardens, and water features. It's home to the Barbican Centre, a major arts venue featuring concert halls, theatres, cinemas, and art galleries. The area is exceptionally well-connected by public transport, with several Underground stations nearby, making it easy to reach other parts of London.

For culture enthusiasts, staying within the Barbican Estate or directly adjacent offers unparalleled convenience. You're literally steps away from world-class performances, exhibitions, and films. Many of the flats within the estate are available for short-term lets and provide a unique opportunity to experience this architectural marvel firsthand, often with access to private residents' gardens.

Couples looking for a sophisticated and peaceful base will appreciate the area's relaxed atmosphere, especially in the evenings when the Barbican Centre lights up. There are numerous high-quality restaurants and bars within and around the complex, great for a pre-theatre dinner or a quiet drink.
