Very pleased with our 2 bed apartment. Very large especially for London and with 2 teenagers this was a fantastic alternative to a hotel. Would definitely stay again.

Fantastic stay. Excellent location near public transport with loads of amenities on the doorstep. Clean apartment, comfortable beds, plenty of hot water, well equipped kitchen. We were upgraded to a three bedroom deluxe apartment and it was huge! Would return.My only suggestion would be to provide recycling facilities please. We were advised we had to just put paper, card, plastic, cans and glass in the bin - surely we can do better than this?

Monarch House is a gem tucked behind a busy street in Kensington! Great location with easy access to the tube station, grocery store (next door), parks, the Design Museum, and many cute cafes and restaurants. The courtyard is beautifully designed; it is so wonderful to walk through the area when we return from a day of exploring the city. The apartment is clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed. The reception desk staff were super friendly and helpful. The only complaint we have is the remodeling that was happening to this hallway area that is right next to our room throughout our 7-night stay. The sound of electrical drills in the mornings was not too pleasant, and the sight of construction/half-painted walls was not what we expected during a vacation.
