Best Western Premier Shaftesbury Kensington Hotel

Introduction: Located just to the west of central London the Best Western Premier Shaftesbury Kensington Hotel is convenient for two major exhibition centres. These are at Earls Court (0.4 miles) and Olympia (0.8 miles). The hotel is just yards from the Cromwell Road which is A4 Dual Carriageway. This is the major road for traffic entering and leaving London from the West. It also affords direct road access to Heathrow Airport which takes around 25 minutes from here with a clear run. It also links up with the M4 motorway and being a major road means you'll always find a taxi to hail. Hogarth Road itself is a relatively quiet street which is one way and must be entered from Earls Court Road. Within 200 yards is a major supermarket, Sainsburys, at 157 Cromwell Road. There's also a huge Tesco supermarket less than half a mile away on Cromwell Road by Warwick Road. Half a mile to the North finds the fashionable shopping and cafes of Kensington High Street while the nearest major shopping is along Earls Court Road. Within 1 mile to the south is the hugely popular and busy Kings Road, Chelsea. Other nearby attractions include Linley Sambourne House (0.5 miles), Leighton house museum (0.6 miles), Hyde Park/Kensington Gardens (0.7 miles), Natural History Museum (0.7 miles), Kensington Palace (0.7 miles) and the Science Museum (0.8 miles).
