London is the place of some most outstanding boutique hotels of the world and while mentioning boutique hotels, Kensington can’t stay behind as it gives way to the Rockwell. This Kensington boutique is something a bit different for the ultra-competitive London hotel scene — neither a chintz-laden country-house fantasy nor the deranged hallucination of an interior designer gone mad, the Rockwell is modern in a way that’s sedate, restrained, maybe even a bit Scandinavian, behind that gleaming white Victorian facade. In other words it’s full of personality enigma, enough to invite guests and make them feel on top of the world with its contemporary interiors and traditional hospitality. 

The Rockwell boutique hotel is approximately a 5-minute walk from the Earl's Court tube station. If you’re arriving from Heathrow Airport, the most convenient transfer option to central London is the Heathrow Express train, which leaves Heathrow Airport every 15 minutes and takes 15 minutes to arrive at Paddington Station.

Whether the visit to Kensington is for business or pleasure, many of London’s best attractions are on the doorstep including Earls Court, Harrods, the Royal Albert Hall, the Natural History Museum, the Science Museum as well as the shopping areas of Knightsbridge and Chelsea.

Many public areas of the building retain their original features. The wrought-iron banisters and Victorian mosaic floor in the reception area have been skillfully restored. 

Guests can experience cutting-edge design and modern English cuisine in the stylish garden restaurant, and make use of free Wi-Fi at the rooms and also at the public areas as well. The menu is based on modern interpretations of traditional British fare, and is accompanied by an extensive wine list.

Rooms are individually designed and air conditioned. In-room features include floor-to-ceiling Victorian windows, dressing gowns, and White Company lotions and soaps. The prices start from 650 USD per night approximately.
