Overview

First Impressions

Family friendly – Stylish Kentish Town honestly caught me off guard — in the best way possible. You know those places where the name sounds almost too descriptive, but then you arrive and think, “Oh, they actually nailed it”? This apartment-style accommodation sits right on Kentish Town Road, and I mean, the location alone tells you everything about what Camden borough is really like once you step away from the tourist madness.

Location & Neighborhood

Here’s what I love about staying in Kentish Town — you’re genuinely in a London neighborhood where actual Londoners live. The high street has that perfect mix of charity shops, proper cafés, and those little corner stores that somehow have everything you forgot to pack. You’ve got Kentish Town tube station practically on your doorstep, which means central London in about fifteen minutes, but honestly, sometimes I’d just wander the area because there’s something refreshing about being somewhere real.

The Space

The apartment itself strikes this balance between stylish and actually livable — which, let me tell you, isn’t always easy to find in London. The kitchen is properly equipped (not just a kettle and a prayer), so if you’re traveling with kids or just want to grab groceries from the nearby Sainsbury’s, you’re sorted. What really works is how they’ve managed to make it feel homey without going overboard on the “quirky London flat” aesthetic that some places push too hard.

Family Experience

This four-star setup really delivers on the family-friendly promise. There’s actual space to spread out, which anyone who’s tried to navigate London with children will appreciate immediately. The room configurations work well for different family sizes, and you know what? Sometimes having your own space to decompress after a day of sightseeing matters more than fancy hotel amenities. Plus, there’s decent parking nearby — not always a given in this part of London.

Why Guests Love It

Look, I get why this place scores an 8.7 rating. It’s not trying to be something it’s not, but what it does, it does really well. You’re staying somewhere that feels like a proper London neighborhood experience, with the transport links to get anywhere you need to go. The blend of style and practicality actually works, especially if you want more than just a place to sleep. Camden’s energy is right there when you want it, but Kentish Town gives you space to breathe — and honestly, that balance is harder to find than you’d think.

Clean property in a great location in Kentish Town. Couple of minor issues with hot water / heating as has been mention before but this was quickly resolved with the host. Would stay here again and would recommend

"Clean, friendly, central apartment with super helpful host"
Clean, friendly apartment right by Kentish Town Road. One thing I love about this part of town is that you're at St Pancras in 20 mins but on the Heath just as quickly, and there's loads of shops and great restaurants in the immediate neighbourhood - I personally highly recommend The Fields Beneath under Kentish Town West station for breakfast or a snack - and it's a perfect home base for pretty much any plans you may have in and outside of London. Despite the location, the apartment is surprisingly quiet at night. I stayed here in early November and it was quite cold already, so I did contact the host when I couldn't get the warm water to work (was all a simple matter of water pressure in the end), and they were super quick and helpful in their response and even gave me an emergency number in case anything like it should occur again. Had a lovely time that was unfortunately over far too quickly.

"Superb"
localização bom, perto de 2 estações de metro, com varios restaurantes e mercados ao redor. Ambiente bem tranquilo.
What could be improved: Facil de pegar as chaves, porém a fechadura tinha algum problema que não era fácil de abrir a porta. Tinha que colocar a chave numa posição específica, até descobrir isso perdemos muito tempo. O anfitrião demorou um pouco para responder o que causou um pouco de nervosismo achando que não ia conseguir entrar no hotel.

"Ideal für Kurztrips nach Camden/London wenn man Strassen-Lärm gut verträgt."
Sehr gute Lage direkt an der Kentish Town Road.
What could be improved: Für lärmempfindliche Leute nicht zu empfehlen – eben wegen der Lage direkt an der sehr belebten und befahrenen Kentish Town Road.
