The Spotlight on Henley House Hotel

Charming Kensington Boutique Near the Music Action

Modern comfort meets traditional London charm at the Henley House Hotel, a boutique townhouse overlooking a peaceful garden square in Kensington and Chelsea. Just steps from Earl’s Court Underground, this stylish spot blends classical features with contemporary design, making it a calm yet connected base for your concert getaway.
Each air-conditioned room is thoughtfully designed with smart TVs, LED lighting, and sleek glass-walled bathrooms. Whether you're in town for a major gig or a weekend music escape, Henley House delivers quiet comfort in one of London’s most iconic neighborhoods.

Why Concert-goers love it

With Earl’s Court Station only a two-minute walk away, you’ll have direct access to London’s top music venues without the long late-night trek. The quiet residential setting means you can wind down peacefully after the show. Flexible check-in from 15:30 and a relaxed check-out time of 11:00 makes it easy to work around late-night setlists and early-morning recoveries.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish, central base
  • Solo travelers catching a once-in-a-lifetime show
  • Couples making a romantic music weekend of it
  • Fans wanting a quieter place to recharge post-concert
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who value comfort and location

Food and Drink Options

Start your day with a continental breakfast buffet served in the hotel’s light-filled conservatory, featuring fresh croissants and coffee — perfect if you're recovering from a late night. While there’s no on-site restaurant or bar, the hotel’s location puts you within walking distance of plenty of local cafés, pubs, and late-night eats around Earl’s Court and Kensington High Street.

Nightlife Options

You’re just minutes from bars and lounges in Kensington and nearby South Kensington. While Henley House doesn’t have a bar of its own, its serene vibe makes it ideal for guests who prefer to explore the city by night and return to peace and quiet.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s stylish rooms, friendly staff, and excellent location close to the Underground. Many reviews highlight the cleanliness, the value for money, and how surprisingly quiet the rooms are despite being in central London. The garden views and modern decor are also frequently praised.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms can feel compact for those used to larger spaces, and some guests mention the lack of an elevator for upper floors. While the breakfast is well-reviewed, a few travelers wished for more hot options. Not ideal for those looking for a hotel with a buzzing bar scene on-site.

The Bottom Line

A stylish, quiet base in central London, Henley House Hotel is a top pick for concert-goers who want great transport links, modern comfort, and a peaceful place to recover after the encore.

We won’t stay here again

Liked: Clean and tidy…. One plug socket for the whole room which had a double plug for their phone and lamp…. Sockets next to or near the bed. (Room 4)
Disliked: Water pressure was so low it was hard to know if the shower was on or off

Awful, expensive and smells of...

Liked: The location was this hotel's only saving grace. The building was odd, the staff were odd, the layout was odd, the smell was odd, the entire stay was awful and odd. We felt very uncomfortable the entire time and could not wait to get out of there.
Disliked: The staff were unpleasant and unwelcoming. The room was shiny and cluttered with stuff. The bathroom was awful; shoehorned into the room with a window with blind facing into the room. Why!? There were LED lights everywhere and on everything, so it was a wonder we fell asleep. The place stank of microwaved macaroni cheese when we arrived, and the smell lingered throughout the building. We skipped breakfast, as we didn't want to risk it! Also, the curtains we so heavily stained with god-know-what, that I am very glad we only saw that in the morning. Otherwise, I think i would have left then and there.
