I would definitely stay here again. A nice home away from home in a great location. Parking is on street parking we were there on a Saturday so had to pay for parking £40 otherwise it's free from 6.30pm onwards from Saturday till Monday morning at 8.30am. Cleaning staff were excellent, reception were also helpful in where I called to let them know we would be checking in late. There's always someone on reception. Bathroom is a little on the small side but hey ho the apartment makes up for it size wise as didn't feel claustrophobic.

Presidential itself was the best place I've stayed, the construction directly cross the street was the worst if you're planning to sleep past 7:30am. to have control. I would have appreciated a heads up as I would have brought a white noise machine. I used ear plugs and helped minimally. Back to Presidential. BEST HOTEL/APT!!!

Family weekend stay

We stayed at the Presidential apartments for the weekend. All staff were very helpful, polite and friendly. The apartment was well-equiped, clean and comfortable, with plenty of space for 2 adults and a child. The heating controls were a little difficult to figure out, but we were grateful for air-conditioning. Some decaf options for tea/coffee would have been great, however, I didn't ask staff so cannot say whether they had some available, but none were provided in the room. Having access to a dvd collection was really helpful for evening entertainment. Overall, we had a great stay and would happily book again.

Unacceptable sofa bed option

we had a 3 person standard room. the pull out sofa bed was NOT acceptable as a bed option. When I talked to the desk person, they said they would send another duvet cover which of course made NO difference ! The bed slanted down at the head, you could feel every spring in the so called mattress. It WAS NOT a bed and should not be advertised as a bed. Sleeping on bed springs with 3 duvet covers!!!

The hotel met all our needs. The concierge stored our bags until check in time and transported our bags to our rooms. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The neighborhood is wonderful. Earl's Court tube stop a block away, multiple pubs and restaurants nearby, Marks and Spencer (grocery store) half a block away. You can take the Piccadilly line straight from Heathrow to Earl's Court and you're right there. Pretty much everything else a tourist likely would want to do is also on the Piccadilly/District line, so this hotel is ideally situated for that. Other reviewers complained about the condition of the cabinets or drapes. I suppose one could say that, but they were just fine and did their job. You will want to open the windows so the rooms don't get stuffy, but that's just personal preference. All in all, we had a great 6 night visit and would happily return.

The Presidential Serviced Apartments in Kensington, London were great. We enjoyed a spacious environment with comfortable beds, and a fully working kitchen. The washing machine was a bonus. They really should let visitors know that the radiators are controlled manually, and that one must remove the ‘wall’ in front of them to get to the control knob. The best part of our stay was interacting with the kind staff, especially Peter and Lenka. We needed assistance with the radiators, and with finding a special sized box to carry an awkwardly shaped item home. They went above and beyond trying to help us find one, and succeeded in doing so. They followed up with us to make sure we had everything we needed, and they made sure we felt we were well taken care of. Thank you Lenka and Peter!

The hotel is in great location. The earls court station is a 5 minute walk. We had the choice of The picadilly and district line to take into london. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. We had a deluxe studio which was perfect for 2 of us. We had a large refrigerator, washer/dryer combo, kettle,toaster,stove which we wanted. If youre expecting a ritz carlton this is not it but it was perfect for us. We felt more like locals vs tourists. I would stay again and would recommend.
