Monarch House - Serviced Apartments - Kensington

Excellent location right on Kensington high st. Near the metro station and lots of bus stops around. There's a waitrose right beside it which was just great and convenient. Walking distance from Notting Hill and Hyde Park. Staff were very friendly. We had a 2-br unit which was huge and clean. Complete kitchen equipment for cooking. The only downside was the timing, full renovation was going on at the entrance. They had to fully close it halfway our stay and we had to enter/exit through the basement parking which made it a bit of a hassle. Also, after check out, needed to use the toilet which apparently they didn't have. The staff merely told me "No toilet", shrugged and offered no alternatives whatsoever. This was before an hour & a half car ride to the airport so imagine my torture. If this was the case, having no public toilet, you should be prepared to have alternatives (e.g. where the nearest public toilet is at). The staff didn't offer help, they just told me "try the restaurants around".

Monarch House is simply the perfect place to stay in when visiting London. All the staff (managerial, reception desk, house help) are doing their utmost to render your stay very comfortable and relaxing. They are always ready to answer to any of your request at any time of the day and the night. Simply very professional and dedicated to their job.

Monarch apartments is definitely a first class home away from home. The relaxing ambience and beautifully equipped apartments allow travellers to totally unwind after enjoying the sights of London and beyond. Superbly located in High St Kensington it is close to the High St Kensington tube, Waitrose and M and S supermarkets as well as major tourist attractions such as Kensington Gardens and the palace.
