Home at Citadines
As we all know very well, the place we choose to stay at during our
holidays or work trips is of key importance. The choice of hotel is
subjectively tied to a person’s plans for the stay, their personal needs
and subjective priorities. In my humble opinion, as much as I love
the service that comes with a full-on luxury hotel, there is a beautiful
freedom in experiencing the hybrid convenience of a classy ‘Apart’hotel’
– serviced apartments serviced the hotel way! Citadines is the perfect
embodiment of that cherished amalgamation and with its quality properties are handily sprinkled around various parts of London and several
other countries in Europe including France, Germany, Belgium and
The Netherlands, it is doing a fantastic job on the continent. Owned by
The Ascott Limited, a dynamic Singaporean real estate company, it has
established itself within the key urban destinations of the continent.
The South Kensington branch of Citadines re昀氀ects its core ideals - top
location, luxurious yet homely rooms and suites and immaculate service
when needed. It is an experience which suits me to a tee and will appeal
to a lot of people who like to have the convenience of a full kitchen complete with a microwave/oven and cooker within the ample suite but also
like the 昀氀exibility and service of a hotel.
The South Kensington apart’hotel joins a cast of other Citadines properties in London including those in Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden, Islington and Barbican adding up to quite an impressive portfolio. Being
a resident of the Royal Borough already, it felt good to be staycationing
in Kensington and Chelsea just a couple of kilometres away from my
Notting Hill home. There is a choice of studio, deluxe studio and one
bedroom apartments and the latter is a perfect springboard to enjoy
your London holiday with family or stay in town on business in style and
comfort.
Barely a few moments walk away from both Gloucester Road and South
Kensington tubes and nestled in the uber-exciting vicinity of the Natural
History Museum, Royal Albert Hall,Science Museum and the V&A, the
location could not be more exciting. The lobby at the South Kensington
outpost is welcoming and the sta昀昀 are super-friendly. There is a handy
co昀昀ee machine in the corner and although there is no on-site restaurant,
there are plenty of eating and drinking options along Gloucester Road.
There is also a gym and laundry room for convenience.
The rooms are optimally designed, furnished and decorated to make the
most out of the space in this posh part of London. The one-bedroom
option is a duplex suite with a comfortable bedroom situated on the
昀椀rst 昀氀oor and an ample living room with adjoining kitchen downstairs.
The comfortable sofa folds out into an ample bed for the children in
the family if needed. There is even a bathtub, dishwasher and a roomy
refrigerator to make you feel entirely at home. The sta昀昀 as aforementioned are lovely and will do anything to make you feel at home and help
with the stay in any way that they can.
The overall feeling is one of homeliness. This being our beloved
borough, there are plenty of cultural things to keep one busy and the
bustling environs are loaded with several exciting options for food and
drink. However, once you’ve done your bit in London for the day, you
can rest assured that you’ll be retiring back to your lovely home-awayfrom-home at Citadines!!
