The buildings are grand and historic, the streets are wide and leafy and the hustle and bustle of London can often seem far away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kensington London &#8211; Find the hidden gems<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>First off head to the museums that South Kensington is home to. The Natural History Museum, the Science Museum and the V&amp;A all sit within a few meters of each other and are as iconic and interesting from the outside as they are from inside. The museums are all free to enter and open at 10:00 am. There is often a queue during the day, especially for the Natural History Museum, so if you want to go inside I would suggest being at the gates for 10:00 am to miss the crowds!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After you&#8217;ve finished at the museums walk North up Exhibition Road in the direction of Hyde Park. Just before you get to Hyde Park be sure to take the last street on the left &#8211; Prince Consort Road as this will take you to the front of the famous Royal Albert Hall where many big events take place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then head into Hyde Park. Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens together create one of the largest parks in London and on the map you really can&#8217;t miss it due its rectangular shape right in the middle of the city. It&#8217;s home to gardens, memorials, cycling tracks, ponds and a Palace!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1620\" height=\"1080\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.meininger-hotels.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond.jpg\" alt=\"Kensington London - Kensington Gardens \" class=\"wp-image-8585 lazyload\" title=\"perfect weather in Kensington Gardens \" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond.jpg 1620w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-600x400.jpg 600w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1620px) 100vw, 1620px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1620px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1620\/1080;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1620\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.meininger-hotels.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond.jpg\" alt=\"Kensington London - Kensington Gardens \" class=\"wp-image-8585\" title=\"perfect weather in Kensington Gardens \" srcset=\"https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond.jpg 1620w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-Pond-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1620px) 100vw, 1620px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Take a slow walk around the park but be sure to end at Kensington Palace which has been a palace since 1689! You can pay to go inside or you can admire the palace and it&#8217;s gardens from the outside. The Palace has become even more popular in the last 20 years as Princess Diana who died in 1997 lived here for a while. Personally I really love walking around the Round Pond that is in front of the Palace and is usually filled with ducks.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1620\" height=\"1080\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.meininger-hotels.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace.jpg\" alt=\"Kensington London - Kensignton Palace\" class=\"wp-image-8584 lazyload\" title=\"Kensignton Palace\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace.jpg 1620w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-600x400.jpg 600w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1620px) 100vw, 1620px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1620px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1620\/1080;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1620\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.meininger-hotels.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace.jpg\" alt=\"Kensington London - Kensignton Palace\" class=\"wp-image-8584\" title=\"Kensignton Palace\" srcset=\"https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace.jpg 1620w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kensington-Palace-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1620px) 100vw, 1620px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>From here, head North West out of Hyde Park towards Notting Hill Tube Station. Notting Hill is incredibly busy and touristic these days but when in West London it really can&#8217;t be missed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Head to Portobello Road which on a Saturday hosts the famous Portobello Road Market. On Sunday-Friday although the market isn&#8217;t on it&#8217;s still worth the visit and the plus side is that the streets aren&#8217;t as busy. Here you can discover the colourful houses of Notting Hill and wander around the many independent shops.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"722\" height=\"1080\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.meininger-hotels.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Notting-Hill-Coloured-Houses.jpg\" alt=\"Kensington London - Notting Hill\" class=\"wp-image-8586 lazyload\" title=\"colourful street in Notting Hill\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Notting-Hill-Coloured-Houses.jpg 722w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Notting-Hill-Coloured-Houses-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Notting-Hill-Coloured-Houses-685x1024.jpg 685w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Notting-Hill-Coloured-Houses-600x898.jpg 600w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 722px) 100vw, 722px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 722px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 722\/1080;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"722\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.meininger-hotels.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Notting-Hill-Coloured-Houses.jpg\" alt=\"Kensington London - Notting Hill\" class=\"wp-image-8586\" title=\"colourful street in Notting Hill\" srcset=\"https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Notting-Hill-Coloured-Houses.jpg 722w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Notting-Hill-Coloured-Houses-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Notting-Hill-Coloured-Houses-685x1024.jpg 685w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Notting-Hill-Coloured-Houses-600x898.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 722px) 100vw, 722px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Next head to Holland Park walking down Ladbroke Grove, crossing the main road and heading up Holland Park road until you see an entry point into Holland Park. On route be sure to look out for the grand and affluent Victorian townhouses that make West London so fancy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Holland Park is another beautiful area of green in London home to woodland, play areas, the ruins of Holland House which was badly damaged during World War II and a very unique garden &#8211; Kyoto Gardens which is a&nbsp;Japanese garden donated to the park in 1991.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"1080\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.meininger-hotels.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kyoto-Gardens-1.jpg\" alt=\"Kensington London - Kyoto Gardens\" class=\"wp-image-8588 lazyload\" title=\"Kyoto Gardens - a Japanese garden in London\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kyoto-Gardens-1.jpg 720w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kyoto-Gardens-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kyoto-Gardens-1-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kyoto-Gardens-1-600x900.jpg 600w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 720px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 720\/1080;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.meininger-hotels.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kyoto-Gardens-1.jpg\" alt=\"Kensington London - Kyoto Gardens\" class=\"wp-image-8588\" title=\"Kyoto Gardens - a Japanese garden in London\" srcset=\"https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kyoto-Gardens-1.jpg 720w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kyoto-Gardens-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kyoto-Gardens-1-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kyoto-Gardens-1-600x900.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The garden can get quite busy but it still feels very serene. There&#8217;s a waterfall going into a pond, steps crossing the bottom of the waterfall and the pond is full of huge fish. Although not very Japanese there are also a number of peacocks that call this area home too which are interesting to see.&nbsp;Holland Park also has a cafe and free bathroom facilities if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Walk to the Southern Part of Holland Park and then head East along Kensington High Street. There are plenty of high street stores a long here as well as a few fancier stores too and lot&#8217;s of places to eat. Again, it is filled with huge Victorian Buildings and it does feel very grand and posh!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Walk past Kensington High Street Tube Station and continue straight until you see the corner of Hyde Park. On your right you&#8217;ll see Palace Gate road, take this street which then turns into Gloucester Road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>London is known for its mews houses and there&#8217;s is no where better to explore the mews than off of Gloucester Road!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"picturesque old mew houses in London\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1600\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8590 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.meininger-hotels.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2.jpg\" alt=\"Kensington London - mew houses London\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2.jpg 1620w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-600x400.jpg 600w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2400px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2400\/1600;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"picturesque old mew houses in London\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1600\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8590 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.meininger-hotels.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2.jpg\" alt=\"Kensington London - mew houses London\" srcset=\"https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2.jpg 1620w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/m-blog.tomek.webeeline.team\/app\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kynance-Mews-2-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mews used to be rows of stables when horse and carriages were used and the living quarters were on top. The roads are only small and tend to be just off of a main road. It&#8217;s quite funny because back in those days I&#8217;m sure no one wanted to live in them but fast forward to the present day and the mews of London go for a huge amount of money, are very popular and very pretty.&nbsp;It\u2019s not uncommon for celebrities to live in a mews property!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kynance Mews will be on your left after a few hundred meters.
