			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Simply Rooms and Suites in Kensington is one of the trendiest boutique London hotels. Located, just of buzzing Kensington High St, it is ideal for the discerning tourist or business traveller. Set in the heart of London, newly designed Simply Rooms &amp; Suites is one of the new boutique London  <a href="http://www.simplyroomsandsuites.co.uk/">hotels near Olympia Exhibition Centre</a>.  Located only 400 metres from Kensington  (Olympia) underground station, and a stone’s throw away from Kensington  High Street, they offer affordable high quality 4* accommodation.</p>
<p><a href="http://kensingtonwest.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/boutique-hotel.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-434" title="boutique hotel" src="http://kensingtonwest.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/boutique-hotel-300x147.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="147" /></a></p>
<p>Simply Rooms &amp; Suites concept is simple. The reason they can offer a luxury  experience from only £99 per night is by eliminating the traditional hotel  facilities such as a restaurant, bar, gym and spa.  This allows them to keep room rates low without compromising on high spec room luxury.   Also Simply Rooms &amp; Suites offer either a mini-kitchen or a  fully fledged kitchen in the majority of its guest bedrooms encouraging  guests to bring in food and beverages from the many local groceries or  take-aways.</p>
<p>All rooms our contemporary designed and  equipped with quality bedding, air conditioning, free broadband  internet, wifi, flat screen TVs, ipod dock, UK &amp; EU power plugs.  Bathrooms are equipped with power showers, bathroom speakers, and  quality accessories.</p>

<p><strong>Bed Bugs Sleepover at London Zoo &#8211; 15th July</strong></p>
</div>
<div><a href="http://www.londondrum.com/events/"></a>If your children are  between 11 and 14 this experience at London Zoo is a great experience.   They will spend the night in BUGS! alongside the  spiders, beetles and tamarins (all safely behind glass).  With plenty of activities before bedtime including animal talks,  games and story-telling sessions. The highlight will be a night time  tour around the zoo, so they can see what goes on once all of the  visitors have gone home.  Many of the animals are more active at night,  so they’ll be able to see what they get up to as we search the zoo by  torchlight.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>May half term is nearly upon us.  Parents are bracing themselves for the usual words “I’m bored”.  So what can you do to keep the little mites happy?  Well if you live in or around London there is plenty to do.</p>
<p>The doctor who experience at Olympia is great for fans wanting to get up close and personal with monsters, spaceships and even the doctor himself.</p>
<p>The Age of the Dinosaur exhibition London event at Natural History Museum invites you and your children to discover their natural habitat. The exhibition has a huge collection of gigantic skeletons and fossilized remains which kids will love. Dinosaurs Unleashed at The 02 in London is another great exhibition for dinosaur fans.</p>
<p>Another idea for a day out in London is the Wetland Centre.  Over the half term there will be plenty of hands on activities and demonstrations about different wildlife.</p>
<p>If you want to stay over in London why not book a room with us.  Kensington West is one of the best budget <a href="http://www.kensingtonwest.org/">Kensington Hotels</a>, we offer all mod cons and are based in a great location in Kensington, just a short walk from Kensington High street.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong></strong>Science Museum, Exhibition Road, South Kensington, London SW7 2DD</p>
<p>The London Science Museum has launched a unique new project as a part of  their Climate Changing programme. The project, called ‘A Cockroach Tour  of the Science Museum’ is a participatory event by art group Superflex,  which invites participants to take on the form of cockroaches.</p>
<p>Visitors to the Science Museum will be able to dress up in realistic  cockroach costumes to begin a journey through the Museum, exploring the  impact on the climate of scientific and technological developments from  the perspective of one of the oldest, most resilient life forms on the  planet.</p>
<p>The humorous tour will take visitors through the Museum’s Energy Hall,  Exploring Space and Making the Modern World galleries before completing  their journey in the atmosphere gallery. The tour has been created by  Superflex, a group of artists and designers whose work aims both to  highlight global issues and to suggest and generate alternative ideas  and solutions.</p>
