About AYLI

Sixteen individually designed suites in one Kensington building.

Your stay, just as you like it

AYLI takes its name from Shakespeare's As You Like It. It is also the idea behind everything we do. Your stay should feel the way you like it.

We are an independent serviced apartment house in Kensington. Sixteen suites sit within one building at 2 Marloes Road, each designed individually and finished to the standard of a five-star hotel. You get the space and privacy of a home, with the care and attention of a hotel that knows you by name.

One building, sixteen different suites

No two suites are quite the same. There are studios with their own gardens, two-bedroom residences with balconies and two penthouses on the top floor. Suite 3A has a private garden with a hot tub beneath an illuminated pergola. Suite 1 has its own infrared sauna. Several suites open straight onto Marloes Road through a private entrance of their own.

Every suite has a fully equipped kitchen, Sonos speakers in the ceiling, smart lighting and automated blackout curtains. The bathrooms come with smart bidet toilets, Rituals toiletries, robes and slippers.

Looked after by people, not a call centre

AYLI is run by our founder, Ibi, and a small team. Check-in is keyless and simple, so you can arrive on your own schedule. When you need anything, you reach us directly by phone, WhatsApp or email, and we answer quickly.

"What really sets AYLI apart is Ibi and his team. From the very first enquiry, communication was prompt, friendly and helpful."

Families who want bedrooms of their own under one roof. Business travellers and relocating professionals who stay for weeks or months. Couples in London for a special occasion. Guests who come back, again and again, because it feels familiar.

A quiet street in the middle of it all

Marloes Road is a peaceful residential street in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, between Cromwell Road and Kensington High Street. High Street Kensington station is a 5 minute walk and Earl's Court is 6 minutes. Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park and the museums of South Kensington are all within an easy stroll.
