Clean well laid out apartment in a truly beautiful part of this great city.
We stayed with our three small children and really appreciated being 5 minutes from the princess Diana playground where we got ice cream every afternoon- and many Notting hill coffee spots like kuro (well worth a stop off). The staff at the Hill cafe next door were very kind and there were lots of quick snack options for the kids.
There were so many delicious places to eat near the apartment we didn’t get to try all of them. We had the best vine leaves we’d ever eaten in Al Waha, had an excellent brunch in egg break and were completely disappointed to have missed Sunday in Brooklin and Farmacy (both of which look amazing!
The apartment is near shops and pharmacies, and the cinema that was featured in Notting hill the movie and had retained an old world charm.
Transport links were easily reached on foot and travel around the city from this location to many central spots and many of the free big museums was very quick and easy though we often walked to places like the natural history museum and Holland park and got taxis back because it was not hugely expensive to do so.
We didn’t use the heating at all during our stay (in March) easy to imagine it being cosy in winter and easy to imagine sitting in the courtyard in summer reading a book letting the breeze to blow through the house.
All in all a functional apartment with very comfortable beds, a spacious sofa bed and constant hot water in an ideal location.
Looking forward to returning!
