Maranton House Hotel  

On a quiet street in Kensington, this family-run bed & breakfast sits just a 2-minute walk from Earls Court Exhibition Centre and Earls Court Tube Station, with direct tube links to Heathrow and Victoria Coach Station. About 10 minutes' walk from Hyde Park and convenient for Kensington Roof Gardens, Imperial College, Royal Albert Hall, Harrods and Buckingham Palace.

Original Georgian features set the tone — high ceilings and Georgian windows frame 16 unique guestrooms. Rooms are simple and spacious; some front-facing rooms have balconies over a tree-lined square while others offer garden views, tiled private bathrooms (some with bidets), flat-screen TVs, tea/coffee makers and occasional armchairs.

An evening bar and an on-site restaurant keep nights easy, while complimentary Wi‑Fi, room service and daily housekeeping make stays low-effort. Expect garden views, baggage storage and a 24-hour front desk; continental breakfast is available for a fee.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout, express check-out and a 24-hour multilingual front desk make short business stays straightforward.

There’s an on-site restaurant serving guests and a continental breakfast each morning (for a fee), plus an evening bar for drinks. A cluster of noted Mediterranean and local eateries is just steps away, including Locanda Locatelli, The Palomar and Macellaio RC South Kensington.
