Playful London hotel near Portobello Market

Ruby Zoe Hotel & Bar, Notting Hill

Property details

  • Caribbean calling: Notting Hill’s famous for its August Bank Holiday carnival, and Ruby Zoe’s West Indian vibes reflect the flamboyant affair. The bustling bar is adorned in trumpet chandeliers, colourful art and a mint green 1957 Ford - the perfect backdrop for your Instagram snaps. Whether you come for carnival or not, you can’t escape the good time feels.

  • Easy access: Staying at Ruby Zoe couldn’t be easier, from the contactless check-in to key card access, complimentary tea stations on floors one to six and a shop selling all the things you might have forgotten to pack in your suitcase - such as umbrellas and toothbrushes. Breakfast is a leisurely affair of locally derived dishes and even includes bottomless barista-served coffee.

  • Feel the rhythm: The bar offers more than just cocktails, though these are fairly spectacular with everything from rum punch to Negroni. There are also light bites on offer, like pizza and piadine, but the highlight is the musical theme. You can check out the hotel’s vinyl collection, catch a live music show or riff on the hotel’s own collection of guitars and steel drums.

How to get there

The hotel is midway between Notting Hill Gate and Holland Park tube stations - both are about five minutes’ walk away and are on the Central line, with Notting Hill Gate also on the District & Circle lines, connecting you to the rest of London. Buses leave from up and down Holland Park Avenue and you’ll have no problem finding a taxi in this part of London.
