We believe the best information about a residential development comes from the people living there. Owners and tenants have a lot of useful information to share with their prospective neighbours, not just on the property itself and its locality, but also on the developer and the building’s management.

Flats are well proportioned. Finish is a little better than average for the money you pay. Location is brilliant. There are no real facilities. There are always fire marshalls around as I believe they are due to change/upgrade the cladding since the new cladding laws have been introduced. The building was normally kept very clean. Managed pretty well in my opinion.

The building is modern with great facilities, especially the refuse chutes. My only complaint it is that it seems to be designed for winter not for summer. During the hot days the heat remains in the flat. The property has got a good management as far I am concerned.

The design of the building is very modern. The inside of the building is very clean. They are cleaned daily and are spotless. There’s 5 floors and between 2-4 flats in each floor. The lift is really handy and rarely busy. In the bottom floor there’s a parking lot. For me the best part is the balcony; I’m on the 5th floor and the view is spectacular... The one bedroom apartment is perfect for 1 or 2 people. Very modern slick and pleasantly peaceful. I also feel very safe in the building. Also, my neighbours are very nice and polite. When the courier leaves a parcel inside the entry door - it can stay there for days and no one will touch it. The property management offices are around the corner if you need to see them. Overall, I’m quite happy here and a great location to be in.

I think property management gets the highest score as I can people always work and especially during covidtimes, they did extra cleaning, and we're more cautious. The design of the house is okay but the only issue is with heating as you can't turn it off on specific floors and then even you switch off the top then the floor is still hot. I would also prefer old-school light switches, but I appreciate that it's easier to switch out some that are still on upstairs. Little gardens/patios are definitely your USP. Kitchen design and master bedroom bathroom is my favourite

Portobello Square is a very appealing modern new build with a design style that still manages to fit right in with other properties in Notting Hill. However that is all you really seem to get here, there are no additional facilities and building management can be very hard to get in touch with for help or questions.
