Dukes Apartment United Kingdom

Dukes Apartment offers simple, understated elegance within a cleverly designed, light-infused three storey home. Nestled in the heart of London’s royal borough, this is a sleek, metropolitan pad that epitomises low-key sophistication.
A fresh, bijou open-plan dining and kitchen space provides classic solid timber furnishings and polished wood floors, contrasting with slick, glossy monochrome kitchen with striking black units. The skylight adds a vibrant touch, whilst quality fittings and appliances provide a luxury-grade kitchen.
The vintage travel posters add a note of verve, whilst this characterful space offers calm tranquillity in the heart of one of London’s most “happening” areas.
Three sumptuous bedrooms can accommodate six guests, comprising a super king bed, a king and two singles. These rooms offer a refined, understated ambience of calm and restoration, away from the crowds and “buzz” of the city. Immaculately finished, these suave rooms offer a soft, muted palette, crisp cotton bed linen, chic lighting and accents of playful colour.
Hotel-quality bathrooms, pretty shutters, printed fabric soft furnishings and contemporary art add abundant character to this tasteful abode. Dukes Apartment offers fresh, airy and polished accommodation, with classical architecture combined with modern twists, in the pulse of London’s royal borough.
All the independence of a private home blends with hotel-style services: on call host support; personal welcome; spa quality toiletries and quality, fluffy towels and crisp cotton linen – for the very best of both worlds!On a quiet, residential lane in the heart of Kensington, Gregory Place offers an insight into local life and commerce, whilst being a few moments from some of London’s main attractions.
Kensington is one of London’s most upscale areas, home to some of the capital’s most famous free museums, two royal parks and a range of fabulous shops. This chic borough is occupied by London’s elite; a resplendent enclave of stucco-fronted and pastel toned homes, jostling alongside trendy bars and eateries.
The closest tube to Gregory Place is High Street Kensington; whilst the Royal Albert Hall and Natural History Museum are on its doorstep.
The vibrant, eclectic and arty Notting Hill, with the famous, world’s oldest antique street market at Portobello Road, is a short distance away.
As well as the world-renowned museums, there are many, fascinating and intriguing lesser-known museums and galleries. The Design Museum is set in a grade ll listed building in Kensington High Street; the building has been transformed by a team led by the well-known architect John Pawson – from fashion to furniture, from product to graphic design, this is an international designers’ hub.
Eighteen Stafford Terrace is just a few moments walk away, for a virtually untouched and immaculately preserved slice of Victorian living, one of the only genuine Victorian townhouses remaining, it has become something of a hidden national treasure.
Located on the edge of Holland Park, Leighton House Museum is one of the most opulent museums in London; the ornate nineteenth-century home of Lord Leighton is decorated with domed ceilings, gilded walls, flamboyant artwork and fountains. This is a small scale museum which makes for a nice afternoon’s activity, whilst Holland Park itself is small, little known by tourists, and offers something of a secret escape into woodlands, wild ponds and pavilions; set in one of London’s most elegant areas, it makes for a romantic stroll or day out as a family.
High Street Kensington is just moments away, which offers a wide array of high street boutiques and a flagship Whole Foods store, and for a treat, The Orangery at Kensington Palace Gardens offers an unapologetically decadent and elegant dining experience!
