OUR STORY
Named For A Place. Made Into a Home.
Not a hotel with a spa you won't use. And not a serviced apartment that hands you a key fob and wishes you luck.
The Marloes takes its name from the crescent it lives on — and the crescent takes its name from Marloes, a coastal village in Pembrokeshire chosen by a Victorian surveyor honouring the landholding roots of the Barons Kensington, who once owned this land. That is a long chain of connection for a quiet street in SW5. We rather like it.
What we landed on was a house. Where the bed is genuinely excellent, the kitchen is genuinely equipped, and the person on the door is genuinely pleased to see you. A house with European oak on the floors, a Ruark radio on the counter, and a garden crescent of Victorian London outside the window.
WHY BOOK DIRECT WITH US
Three Things That Matter
Apartment
Handcrafted wool-and-silk mattresses. Full Bosch kitchen. European oak. Curated art from working European artists. Ruark radio. Bread, fruit, butter and fresh milk from a local Somerset farm to welcome you.
Street
Philbeach Gardens. A quiet Victorian crescent in RBKC. Five minutes to Earls Court station. Thirty minutes' walk to the Natural History Museum, the V&A, the Science Museum. London without the noise.
People
A staffed front desk, all year round. A welcome hamper on arrival. A weekly-restocked pantry. A personalised pre-arrival message. People who pay attention and sort things out when they need sorting.
THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
The Kind Of Street London Kept Quietly To Itself.
Philbeach Gardens is a residential crescent in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. International without being transient. Connected without feeling like a transit hub. Thirty minutes from three of the world's great museums, and quieter than it has any right to be.
Over Under, Hogarth Road. Flat whites and a solid brunch. Handy for a coffee before the tube
Coffee
The Pembroke, Old Brompton Road. A proper gastro-pub with a hidden roof terrace. Plan a Sunday around the roast.
Dinner
Brompton Cemetery. Grade I listed, ten minutes south. Unexpectedly beautiful and almost never on anyone's itinerary.
Walk
Natural History Museum. About half an hour on foot. Free. The Darwin Centre is worth the detour.
Culture
STAYING LONGER
The Apartments Are Set Up For A Week Or a Month.
In-unit washer-dryer. Full kitchen. Dining table & chairs. Active climate control. The format works for extended stays because it was designed for them, not retrofitted.
Extended stay rates from 7 nights
Rates ease the longer you stay — 7, 14, or 30 days, each better value than the last. Consistently lower than OTA pricing
Corporate & institutional accounts
Direct invoicing, flexible scheduling, block-rate agreements. We work with universities, project teams, and corporate travellers.
Personalised pre-arrival setup
For stays of 7 nights+, we ensure everything is right before you arrive — coffee, furniture, housekeeping schedule.

You Are Very Welcome.
We have a small number of apartments and they fill up. If you are planning a stay during a busy period — school holidays, the Olympia season, or the summer museum months — earlier is better. Direct bookings always get our best rate, and someone who actually works here will take your reservation.
