The apartment is perfectly situated for exploring the city of London. We liked it a lot. It is very convenient for walking and also for using public transport. There are very nice restaurants, cafes and pubs nearby and it is just off Portobello Road, Notting Hill, a great and trendy place to be. There is a beautiful park (Holland Park) in walking distance and there a lot of nice streets with lovely houses in Kensington and Chelsea nearby.
