The Spotlight on The Baileys Hotel London

Victorian Charm Steps from Kensington’s Music Scene


The Baileys Hotel London blends historic elegance with modern comfort in the heart of Kensington. Housed in a restored 19th-century townhouse, this stylish hotel is just across the street from Gloucester Road Tube Station, placing you within easy reach of London’s top concert halls and music venues. With its stained-glass windows, sweeping staircase, and plush rooms, it’s the perfect mix of classic charm and contemporary convenience.

Why Concert-goers love it


Location is everything, and The Baileys delivers — you’re just a short Tube ride or walk from iconic venues like the Royal Albert Hall. The proximity to Gloucester Road Station makes late-night transport a breeze, even after encore performances. The hotel’s peaceful rooms offer a welcome retreat after a high-energy night, and the 12:00 pm checkout means you can sleep in after a late gig.

Who this Hotel is great for


  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish base near Kensington’s attractions
  • Solo travelers catching a dream concert at Royal Albert Hall
  • Couples making a romantic weekend of it
  • Music fans who appreciate a serene space to recover post-show
  • Budget-conscious concertgoers who still want a touch of luxury

Food and Drink Options


Feeling peckish after a set? The on-site Bugis Street Brasserie serves bold and delicious Asian cuisine with flavors from Singapore, China, and Malaysia. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the local area is packed with eateries open late. In-room tea, coffee, biscuits, and bottled water are restocked daily, and breakfast is available for those looking to refuel after a late night.

Nightlife Options


Though the hotel itself leans toward tranquility, you’re just minutes from lively bars and lounges around South Kensington and High Street Kensington. Whether you're after a quiet cocktail or a bustling pub vibe, there’s something nearby for every post-concert mood.

What People Say


Guests consistently praise the hotel’s location, calling it “perfect for sightseeing and shows.” The historic interiors and “beautiful staircase” get frequent shoutouts, as does the friendly staff. Reviewers also love the clean, spacious rooms and the convenience of the nearby Tube station.

Areas for Improvement


Some guests mention that rooms facing the street can be a bit noisy, so light sleepers may want to request an interior room. The hotel’s charm comes from its history, but that does mean no ultra-modern vibe if that’s what you’re after.

The Bottom Line


If you want a stylish, well-located stay with Victorian charm and easy access to shows, The Baileys Hotel London is a smart pick for concert-goers.

It is a wonderful experience!

Liked: We have stayed at The Baileys on several occasions and are delighted with the warmth and professionalism of the staff, the classic, well appointed decor and the hospitality of the bar area, in particular.
Disliked: Disappointed at the litter that exists around Kensington, in particular, the way way some of it is bagged in doorways but this is not the responsibility of the hotel. It could be a cleaner, tidier area - in keeping with the smartness of the hotel.Please do not spoil the ambience of the hotel façade with the addition of coloured lighting/fairy lights which cheapens the exterior!

Overall ok

Liked: The fact that it was close to a metro station.
Disliked: The personnel did not inform of facilities that we could use. I went to the gym twice and o could not get in even if I clocked my card. It was kind of locked during the operating hours.
