Nadler Hotel Kensington

by Bryony Harrison (subscribe)

So you are visiting London and need a place to stay. There are so many places to choose from, but how do you know which is best? Ideally you want somewhere close to all the attractions, somewhere that has good rates, and somewhere with a bit of luxury - you are on holiday after all.

It just so happens that The Nadler Hotel Kensington offers all that. Originally built on the large meadow of Courtfield Gardens in the eighteenth century, the manor house was home to many notable figures, such as the surgeon John Hunter, The Duke of Richmond, and confectioner, James Gunter. Because of this it was once nicknamed Currant Jelly Hall, a name they think should brought back.

The Nadler is a four star hotel in the Royal Borough Of Kensington and Chelsea; it is only a short walk from Earls Court tube station, and many visitor attractions, such as Kensington Palace & Gardens, the Natural History Museum, the Science Museum, the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Royal Albert Hall, and more.

They provide free Wi-Fi, twenty-four hour reception & concierge service, air-conditioning, a mini-kitchen in every room, and assure that the price you pay at the checkout, is the price you pay at the checkin. I.E., there are no hidden extras. In fact, you might find yourself saving a few pounds, since they have special discounts for local restaurants.
