Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Situated in London's iconic Notting Hill area, this second-floor apartment is minimal and modern. We think it's a great spot whether you're travelling for work or leisure – self-check-in adds convenience, and your host can provide a free cot if you've got little ones. The location means there is the potential for some noise and parking outside will be tricky, but you'll have easy access to three tube stations for getting around the city. In the immediate area you'll find some restaurants, and a longer stroll will take you to Kensington Gardens.

About Notting Hill
Notting Hill is much loved by residents and visitors alike and it's not hard to see why.

Good food, antiques shops and bars aplenty, you won't easily get bored in this part of town. Portobello Road itself does get...

Grab a Coffee from Farm Girl Café
Shiny blue tiles and a sunny courtyard, this is definitely a feel good café. Delicious, nutritious superfoods are on the menu but don’t let the healthiness put you off.
Dine at the Electric Diner
Escape the bustle of Portobello Road, slip into a red leather booth and enjoy lunch or dinner in this French-American brasserie. It's attached to the Electric Cinema so you can catch a film as well.
Try Top nosh at Granger & Co.
Aussie chef Bill Granger’s troops serve up superb food, wine, and coffees in this bustling corner location. Get there early to beat the morning queues and relish an epic brunch.
Catch a film at Electric Cinema
Not your average cinema: think large, comfy red velvet armchairs, front row beds for cosy couples, an Edwardian Baroque-style interior & cocktails delivered to your chair. Sound like a plan?
Visit the Museum of Brands
Remember when Mars Bars used to be 10p? It’s all there, the brands and packs, radios and ads, fads, sweets, toys and games. Evocative and inspiring, it’s a kaleidoscope of images and brands.
Try the best tacos in town at Taqueria
Celebrate your London trip with a Latino vibe and deliciously confectioned tacos.
Explore The Tabernacle
A stunning red-brick former church offering a community theatre, exhibition space, dance studio, and all-day dining. Enjoy a delicious vegan roti wrap or relax in the outdoor seating area.
Grab a green meal at Farmacy
A leafy café with a retro vibe which attends to the needs of vegetarians, vegans, and other tribes with maximum style.
Bookshop of the movie
Famous as the inspiration for Hugh Grant’s bookshop in the film Notting Hill, it sells (wait for it) travel books, and also hosts several author events every month.
Learn to Graffiti at Graffik Gallery
Remember when your mother told you not to write on walls? At Graffik Gallery they've taken the opposite approach. Their graffiti stencil workshops give you the chance to create your own works of art.
Grab a bite to eat at Honest Burgers
A burger restaurant that offers great service and delicious food. Try their juicy burgers, and don't miss the addictive rosemary-salted chips.
