“The Other House intrigues with its bold, maximalist decor near Gloucester Road; it's a convenient spot close to the tube and Kensington's attractions. While some may find the rooms a bit dark and the layout unusual, the lively ground-floor bar is a definite plus, despite the steep London prices. It presents a distinctive, if somewhat quirky, alternative to the area's more traditional hotels.”
