Fabulous Apartment on Wonderful Street

by Christine and Bill A

It was like staying in a boutique museum! Yet very comfortable and lovely!

Oasis in Kensington

by Warren L

This apartment is uniquely decorated and the longer you stay the more you appreciate its comfortable, calm and quiet environment. It is incredible to find a place so well situated to lovely Kensington restaurants, shops, pubs and verdant gardens. A couple of minor issues were addressed quickly by London Perfect. Use of the shower in the master en suite would have improved the stay.

Dear Warren, thank you for taking the time to leave your positive review. We are pleased the team promptly assisted you and that you enjoyed your stay in the stunning Phillimore property. We do not advertise a shower in bathroom 1, but fortunately there is a lovely marble shower in the second bathroom for guests to use. We hope to welcome you back soon, The London Perfect team.

Beautiful but also comfy!

by Lori Nawn

Beautiful and unique apartment! My daughter (27) and I stayed here for 10 days and truly enjoyed the space. While it’s true the apartment is filled with antiques and knickknacks, the only items with " do not touch " notes were the antique books. We felt very comfortable and made ourselves at home. The garden at the back of the apartment is a huge plus.

Unique property but not for everyone

by Jimmy h

While the apartment is uniquely furnished, it is not for everyone. My wife and I never felt comfortable or able to relax given the many knickknacks, antiques, and 'do not touch' signs. The second bedroom is a child's room and the antique twin bed, while beautiful, is not comfortable for an adult. The pull-out couch is in an inconvenient location off the entry foyer. The king-sized bed, however, in the master is divine. All in all, a unique property but not a relaxing one.

Dear Jimmy, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We regret to hear this apartment with its antiques and designer furnishing was not suitable for you. We are pleased to hear you found the master bed comfortable. We hope to welcome you to one of our other properties next time. Kind regards, The London Perfect team.

Highly recommend

by Marcia Gsell

We so enjoyed our stay at the Phillimore! Our daughter had just moved to London and it was so nice to come home to this beautiful flat each day after rushing around each day pulling her flat together!

Gorgeous Apartment / Obviously Loved

by Julie Young

The Phillimore home was stunning in its detail and curation. It was obvious the home is loved by a family with impeccable taste. The beautiful details did not distract from its functionality. We enjoyed the kitchen, curled up to read in the living room, and slept beautifully, in spite of jet lag and deep snoring 🙂 It was lovely to have everything essential in walking distance and we enjoyed the proximity to attractions. This apartment is an absolute gem, and we highly recommend.

Fabulous Apartment / Great Location

by Lawrence Papale

This is an exquisite apartment in the Phillimore Gardens area, one of the toniest neighborhoods in London. The decor of the apartment is artistically curated and at the same time very modern and up to date. And there is an outdoor garden as a bonus. The owner provided everything we could imagine to make our stay extremely comfortable and even left a personal welcome note to be sure that we knew about local restaurants (don't miss Phillies for breakfast!) and other interesting things to see and do. We would go back in a minute!

Sumptuous. Stylish. Sexy - and dare I say, more spoily than home.

by Sarah S

You won’t find another residence quite like this - anywhere. Designed by the owner (an internationally renowned interiors guru who I now want to help with my homes), the inspired combination of contemporary and quirky fabrics with classical styling, prized art and antique furniture makes this a unique and very special place. The art of a great night’s sleep is a given - with sumptuous hand-made mattresses, down pillows and the softest Egyptian linen. And silence. This inside / outside space is impossibly quiet with views across pretty residential gardens. so safe, I lived with the doors open. Loved all the thoughtful home touches and comforts that make every stay a pleasure. There’s state of the art lighting, an AV system that beats my own, sub-zero appliances and even a La Conue hob. Didn’t bother cooking - it took us just a minute’s walk through a lovely tree lined neighbourhood to buy breakfast from Café Phillies. No room service - who cares when the choice of local restaurants is so great. Kensington High Street and Holland Park are on the doorstep and Kensington Gardens leading into Hyde Park is just minutes away. This is a complete treat of a London pad and way more personal and private than a hotel.

We certainly hope to return again!

by Carol P

Our visit was all the more perfect due to this stunning flat! My husband and I have wanted years to get to London again and Phillimore Gardens is such a great location. The support from London Perfect was much appreciated! I wandered the spaces here admiring the decor - so much thought about detail and ambience! The Chelsea Flower Show with a champagne tea at the Dorchester was quite stimulating to the senses. Dinners at The Belvedere in Holland Park were our favorites. We certainly hope to return again! For now, it's off to the Lake District and Edinburgh for more adventures!

Most wonderful time!

by Kimberly B

We had the most wonderful time at your beautiful home. In fact - we do not want to leave. This really felt like our home away from home. The apartment is just beautiful with such thought and time put into every detail!! Especially loved all of the fabulous art and the different textures on the walls. The system to adjust the lighting in each room was fabulous! The shower was especially divine and I plan to copy it at home during our upcoming guest bath renovation!! We love the area so much!! The restaurants, shops and convenience were wonderful! We will be back!!
