Introducing West Kensington
West Kensington is a globetrotter’s paradise, as Aussies and Kiwis mingle with Spanish and French entrepreneurs and international students from nearby Imperial College. Meanwhile, new media companies buzz away in refurbished warehouses. North End Road, with its smart bars and restaurants, is the area’s main thoroughfare, and you’re also within walking distance of Earls Court and Fulham.
