Hotel Xenia Autograph Collection

Notting Hill & West London


The name means 'hospitality' in Greek, and this snappy, efficient and comfortable 99-room hotel pushes the boat out to each guest, although cheaper rooms are on the very small side and styling, while smart, may be too businesslike for all tastes. If you want a bigger room, upgrade. It's well positioned for visits to South Kensington's museums.
