Located in in the west of London, away from the busier Kensington and sharing more with neighbouring Earls Court, West Kensington is a beautiful corner of the city.
Whilst the area may lack the wealth and shopping of Kensington and the fabulous museums of South Kensington, it is a down-to-earth and homely place offering a range of pleasant attractions.
The main attraction is the Olympia Exhibition Centre, while West Kensington also boasts a diverse array of small shops, fun pubs and multicultural restaurants.
The Queens Club, which hosts the annual pre-Wimbledon grass court tennis event, in recent years warming up stars such as Andy Roddick, Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray.
American tennis ace Andy Roddick set a world record at the Queen's Club for the fastest recorded serve, smashing a 153mph effort past Thailand's Paradorn Srichaphan.
