Top 20 South Kensington, London vacation rentals & luxury serviced apartments

South Kensington is probably most famous for being home to some of London’s top museums (The Victoria & Albert Museum, Natural History Museum, and Science Museum) and so you don’t need to wander far to see some of the city’s greatest treasures. World-class Hyde Park is just a stone’s throw away and there are plenty of great bars and cafes on the delightful pedestrianised end of Exhibition Road, packed full with outdoor diners and a great spot for people watching. Your neighbours will be affluent business people for the most part and South Ken has such a sizeable French population that the area has been nicknamed Paris’s ‘21st arrondissement’. Those looking for retail therapy will be happy to know that Harrods and Harvey Nichols are just a short walk away. Oh and we almost forgot to mention the wonderfully grand, white stucco architecture and charming garden squares. South Kensington is a bit of a winner but you might be hard pressed to find a bargain in this neck of the woods.
