This was a great apartment for our family of three to spend a week. As other reviewers noted, there is a narrow spiral staircase up to the fifth floor flat, so that is a challenge with large luggage and would not be appropriate for some older or less mobile guests. Notting Hill Gate tube station is a short walk and serves the central, district and circle lines so there is easy access to all sightseeing locations. There are numerous pubs, restaurants and shops in Notting Hill, Kensington and Holland Park for exploring locally. The Mall Tavern (right across the street) for Sunday Roast and Happy Hour is excellent.
The flat felt spacious for the three of us and would accommodate four comfortably. The kitchen amenities are nice, but with so many great dining options nearby we only made use of the refrigerator.
The close proximity to Hyde Park was nice, and it was a great place for a quick bike ride.
