The Spotlight on Point A Kensington Olympia

Budget Comfort Near London's Best Concert Spots

Modern, minimalist, and perfectly placed in London's stylish Kensington and Chelsea district, Point A Kensington Olympia is a smart choice for concert-goers looking for affordability without sacrificing comfort. With air-conditioned rooms, free WiFi, and sleek design, it offers laid-back vibes just over a mile from iconic venues like the Royal Albert Hall and Olympia Exhibition Centre.
Its central location keeps you close to the action while giving you a peaceful base to unwind after the show.

Why Concert-goers love it

Set in a well-connected part of West London, this hotel puts you within walking or quick Tube distance of some of the city's top music venues. It's just over a mile from Royal Albert Hall and Olympia, and South Kensington station is only 1.2 miles away, making late-night travel easy. Rooms are soundproofed enough for a solid post-gig sleep, and the 24-hour reception team are helpful with local tips.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for affordable, central digs
  • Solo travelers catching a dream concert
  • Couples planning a music-filled weekend
  • Fans who need a quiet space to decompress post-show
  • Budget-conscious travelers who want value and location

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel doesn’t have a full restaurant, you’ll find plenty of quick bites and cozy cafés just a short walk away. There’s a shared lounge for grabbing a drink or snack, and late-night eats are easy to find around the Kensington area. Breakfast is available nearby if you need a slow start after a late night.

Nightlife Options

You're near some of West London's coolest bars and relaxed pubs, with more vibrant nightlife just a few Tube stops away in Soho or Camden. While there’s no bar on-site, the location makes it easy to catch live music, sip cocktails, or enjoy a nightcap close by.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, spotless rooms, and excellent location. Travelers consistently mention how easy it is to walk or hop public transport to venues. The hotel’s clean, modern vibe and reliable WiFi are also popular with guests needing a no-fuss stay.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms are on the smaller side—fine for a short stay but might be tight for those with lots of gear. There’s no on-site bar or restaurant, but plenty of options are nearby. Some guests mention limited storage space, so pack light if you can.

The Bottom Line

Point A Kensington Olympia is a clean, convenient, and budget-friendly base for anyone catching a show in London, offering modern comfort just minutes from the music.

Exceptional

Liked: We knew we wanted to book a room a little away from the central area of London (but still with easy access via the bus and tube), and this hotel was perfect. The area was nice, and my mom and I felt very safe walking around. The room was quiet, clean, and comfortable for our 3 nights spent there. The AC worked well. We added on the breakfast, and we were very glad we did. Staff was friendly, and I would look to stay here again next time I'm in London.
Disliked: This isn't something that bothered us, but the rooms are a bit small. If you're travelling with minimal luggage, that isn't an issue.

Good value for money

Liked: Very friendly and helpfulFor London good value for money Good WiFi Satisfying breakfast with sweet and savory choices
Disliked: We stayed 3 nights. I was not aware they would not clean the room for three days, and neither change towels. With 2 people in a small room, you might imagine that it gets messy quickly. And wet smelly towels are not so great. We did ask to change them after 2 nights and upon request got two new ones. That was helpful
