A reasonably-priced hotel, but we’d only recommend staying this far out if you’re attending an event at Kensington Olympia, as the only attractions within walking distance are Kensington Palace (25 minutes) and the Natural History Museum and Science Museum (30 minutes)

- Room facilities:

Located near Kensington Olympia, this is not a location we’d recommend to tourists unless they’re actually attending an event there because you’ll have to catch buses and tubes to all the attractions – it’s a 30 minute walk just to get to Kensington Palace. But on the plus side, the rooms do come with a kitchenette

Not the most central of hotels, but if you want a cheap and decent hotel within walking distance of the Kensington Palace and the Natural History Museum then give it a try… but you’ll have to budget for a bus or tube ride to all the other attractions

It’s far from the centre of town but it’s still a decent location nonetheless, close enough to walk to Kensington Palace, Natural History Museum and Royal Albert Hall. But you’ll need to catch a bus or tube to places like Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and the West End.
