26 Hillgate Place is an 1840’s townhouse offering bed and breakfast accommodation in a quiet enclave close to the bustle and glitz of chic and bohemian Notting Hill and fashionable Kensington. If you want affordable but luxurious bed and breakfast or holiday accommodation near to central London, this is the place to be. It is only minutes away from Notting Hill Gate underground station and many bus routes. Portobello market is just down the road as are Kensington Palace – home to many royals - Kensington Gardens and Holland Park. The whole area abounds with trees, gardens and fashionable restaurants and bars. You are never far from something of interest or somewhere wonderful to eat or drink. Then just go home to relax amidst paintings, exotic textiles and wonderful objects from far flung parts. If weather permits you can sit out in the lush but tiny palm filled courtyard or soak up the afternoon sun on the roof terrace. The house is the home of Hilary Dunne, a lawyer turned artist, and her husband Maryo, an Ethiopian property developer, who travel widely, .....and their miniature dachshund puppy, Muna.
26 Hillgate Place has already been featured in Italy in “Dove” (December 2003), in England in “The Telegraph” (November 2004) and in “Time Out” (summer 2005 and also in 2006). It is also in Alastair Sawdays’ Special Places to Stay (English Bed and Breakfast) the Marco Polo guide to London, and in the Guardian Bed and Breakfast Directory 2008.

The experience of a stay at Hillgate Place is perhaps best summed up in the words of some American guests.........................”

“We both wanted you to know how very much we enjoyed our stay with you. You thought of every possible thing a visitor/guest could enjoy/appreciate…. and we did! It was lovely talking with you over breakfast and finding out a little more about your life: you are one of the warmest and most welcoming of any host we have stayed with….. both here in the States and in England. Thank you truly for making our last days in London (and England) so comfortable and enjoyable”
