It is within walking distance to the vibrant centres of High Street Kensington and Earls Court, but has a slightly more tranquil existence compared to other well-known parts of London. The area has Victorian terraced houses, independent shops, restaurants and bars, giving it plenty of character.
West Kensington is well served by public transport, with West Kensington station on the District Line and nearby Earls Court and Barons Court stations having access to both the District Line and the Piccadilly Line.

West Kensington is also close to the Olympia Exhibition Centre and hosts the famous Queens Club Tennis tournament.
