The Victoria is an impeccable four-bedroom, 3.5 bathroom home with a storybook setting in London's exclusive Kensington neighborhood. Imagine the very best of London living and it's yours at the Victoria. Walk along a beautiful and quiet residential street lined with pretty front gardens to reach the Victoria, with its classic London wrought iron railing bedecked with wisteria vines.
Set in picturesque Kensington, the neighborhood is said to have been originally built for Queen Victoria's ladies in waiting. Victoria was born and grew up in the nearby Kensington Palace, which was once the home of Lady Diana. We named the Victoria vacation rental after this illustrious heritage. This was home to a famous English painter, Albert Chevallier Tayler, whose cricket painting broke a record selling for over $1m. His portraits of players were the first of their kind and many hang in the National Portrait Gallery.
You're just a short stroll from the gorgeous and expansive Hyde Park in one direction and some of the best museums in London on Museum Row, in the other direction. For those wanting a more guided experience, try one of our expert museum tours. Walk to fabulous shopping along High Street Kensington or stroll to Notting Hill or Harrods in Knightsbridge; read our blog on department store dining for where to eat. The Victoria is very near the Tube and tons of bus lines crisscrossing London.
Step through the front door to find a soaring entry leading to a large and sunny living room, a gorgeous open-plan dining room and gourmet kitchen. The gorgeous outdoor terrace is the perfect setting for a summer evening. On the second floor, you'll find the sumptuous bedroom 1 with large en-suite bathroom. Next door is the quaint bedroom 2, complete with an en suite. One more level up on the third floor you'll find two additional welcoming bedrooms and a separate bathroom. With every comfort of home, your stay at the Victoria will be a highlight of your trip to London. Click here to see why we love Kensington.

Perfect location - gorgeous home!
by Katie WakefieldWe had the distinct pleasure of staying at the Victoria in December 2021. The recommended car service picked us up at the airport and the London Perfect staff met us at the house. The process could not have been more smooth! The location is perfect! We were blocks away from a tube station, multiple stores, restaurants, Kensington Park and Palace and so much more! Set in a gorgeous quiet residential neighborhood, surrounded by other lovely homes, after a long day of walking and touring, the Victoria was such a welcome and cozy reprieve to come home to. The accommodations were perfect for our group of 7. We had quiet, relaxing times spent playing cards and watching movies at night in the living room and also enjoyed cooking meals and hanging out in the kitchen/dining area. The bedrooms were equipped with super comfy beds and linens. The bathrooms were super well-appointed. The closet space was perfectly ample. We could not ask for better accommodations for our stay in London. There is no other place we will stay when we come back!
Great stay
by Tyler McMullenOur second time staying a week in this flat. Great flat on a great street in a great neighborhood. Nothing negative at all. Perfect for family of five. Plenty of room and full kitchen. Will plan to stay again.
Victoria Home on Launceston Place is "London Perfect"
by AndrewLondon Perfect was perfect from the rental application process to the confirmation and all important information furnished in a timely manner to the greetings and to staying in touch to be sure all expectations of our US Thanksgiving Holiday were met. The property is perfect for our grandparents, parents and adult grandchildren in our group. The location cannot be beat and the three stories provided spacious comfortable areas for all. We always have high expectations because we are used to Paris Perfect properties, and London Perfect matches or exceeds everything we hope for. Even nearby covid testing on nearby Kensington High Street. Thank you London Perfect -- the greeters, caretakers, housekeepers, and concierge staff were perfect also. We will return
