South Kensington Review is a curated guide to London’s cultural quarter — from museums and galleries to restaurants, cafés, hotels, and parks across South Kensington, Chelsea, and High Street Kensington. It’s a considered record of a neighbourhood in motion, updated slowly and deliberately.

Coverage favours places with character, longevity, and cultural weight over hype, rankings, or trends. Listings are curated, edits are opinionated, and the writing aims to be useful first: helping visitors plan their time while preserving the texture of the area.

How We Work

The Review is edited by Marla Scott Jones, Lead Editor, and Noah Laurent, Creative Lead. Together, we shape the site and guide as an ongoing editorial project — part guide, part archive.

Contributions

From time to time, South Kensington Review features guest writing, photography, and local perspectives. Thoughtful contributions are welcome, particularly pieces rooted in first-hand experience of the area. This is not an open submissions platform, but considered ideas are always worth sharing.
