DoubleTree by Hilton London: Kensington hotel opens its doors

Travellers to London can now kick back at the new DoubleTree by Hilton London: Kensington hotel, within walking distance of major attractions like the Royal Albert Hall, Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park, Harrods and Kensington Palace.

Also close by to the Gloucester Road and South Kensington Tube stations, guests can easily get around London on the Circle, District and Piccadilly lines.

Furnished inside an 1870s-era building, the DoubleTree offers 203 rooms including four suites – each with drawing on modern design aspects such as mood lighting and desk-level power points while also featuring more classical woods and textures to pair with the building.

Some of the hotel’s public spaces also include brass balustrading and multi-storey suspended chandeliers for an opulent touch.

Guests at the hotel can dine upon international cuisine at The Regency Restaurant or at 100 Queen’s Gate Bar and Lounge for something more casual and relaxed, after of course enjoying the free warmed cookie provided on check-in which you’ll find at every DoubleTree hotel across the world.

You’ll also find a gym, private steam rooms and eight meeting rooms, while all members of the Hilton HHonors loyalty program who book direct will receive free in-room WiFi, with Gold and Diamond members also enjoying free daily breakfast and space-available room upgrades.
