We had a wonderful stay at Billie and Max's studio! Everything is exactly as described in the listing. The studio is on the top floor of a gorgeous building, and is right near everything you could need during your stay. If you are someone who struggles with stairs, or who may have trouble carrying luggage up many flights of stairs, I would reach out to them and ask for a studio on the lower floor, but we managed just fine! The studio is well decorated and came with towels, an iron, a hair dryer, a mini fridge and small kitchenette area- everything you need! Super comfortable bed!
One incredibly helpful thing was that we were able to drop our luggage off with Joanna and Anna, who work with Billie and Max. They were wonderful and so helpful. We got in very early (9am) which was about 6 hours before check in, so this was amazing because we could get started on some sightseeing!
As advertised, it is a small studio, but there are smart storage options for all of your things, and it is a great size for 2 people who spent most of the time out in the city. It is very close to Kensington High Street tube station for the District/Circle lines (to get to basically all the museums, etc.), and also to the Notting Hill Gate tube station from which you could change for the Central Line if you wanted to take the tube to Piccadilly Circus, Oxford St shopping, etc. or just to avoid the Circle and District lines. Kensington High Street has literally anything you need- there is a Waitrose down the way, Whole Foods, M&S, Boots, and clothes shops like Zara and Uniqlo if you need to update your wardrobe (for example, purchasing That Spotted Dress from Zara because, immersion).
The area is very residential and incredibly quiet, but just a few blocks away you can find great local spots for breakfast. We especially enjoyed Ffiona's, Eggbreak up in Notting Hill (walking distance), and Orée Boulangerie on the High Street. Also, go to Dishoom. Just go to Dishoom. Go. To. Dishoom. We did takeaway in the park for breakfast a few times (to Kensington Gardens and Holland Park) which was lovely.
Thank you Billie and Max for an amazing stay in London!
