Twenty Nevern Square Hotel

Twenty Nevern Square Hotel Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Twenty Nevern Square Hotel feels like discovering one of those perfectly kept secrets that locals never want to share. This four-star boutique property sits on a gorgeous Victorian garden square in Kensington — you know, the kind of London street where you half expect to bump into someone from a period drama. The white stucco facade and those classic black railings immediately tell you this isn’t your typical chain hotel, and honestly, that’s exactly what drew me in.

Location & Neighborhood

The location here is genuinely brilliant, and I mean that — couples consistently rate it 9.1, which makes total sense once you’re actually staying here. You’re literally a five-minute walk from Earl’s Court tube station, which puts you two stops from South Kensington’s museums and about fifteen minutes from central London. What I really love though is how you’re tucked away on this quiet residential square, so you get that peaceful London neighborhood feeling without sacrificing accessibility. The tree-lined streets around here are perfect for morning walks, and there’s something quite magical about having your own little garden square right outside.

The Room Experience

The room I stayed in had this wonderful blend of Victorian charm and modern comfort that actually works — no small feat in London’s older buildings. Each room has its own character (they’re all individually designed), but what struck me most was the attention to detail. The beds are genuinely comfortable, which isn’t always a given in boutique hotels, and the bathrooms feel more spacious than you’d expect. There’s something refreshing about staying somewhere that feels like a well-appointed London townhouse rather than a cookie-cutter hotel room.

Breakfast & Practical Matters

Breakfast here offers both continental and buffet options, and while it’s not going to blow your mind, it’s solid and gets the job done well. What really impressed me was discovering they have private parking available — if you’ve ever tried to park in London, you’ll know this is basically like finding gold. The staff genuinely seem to care about making your stay comfortable, and there’s this lovely sense that they remember returning guests (which makes sense, since apparently more people come back here than at most other properties).

Why Guests Love It

There’s something quite special about finding a hotel that feels both authentically London and genuinely welcoming. Twenty Nevern Square manages to capture that elusive balance between character and comfort that so many places either overthink or completely miss. You’re staying in one of London’s most desirable neighborhoods, on a picture-perfect garden square, but without the stuffiness or astronomical prices you might expect. The fact that so many guests return tells you everything you need to know — this isn’t just a place to sleep, it’s the kind of London base that makes you feel like you’re living in the city rather than just visiting it.

Hotels in Central London hug royal parks, embankment promenades, and neighborhoods buzzing with galleries.
