The Kensington Hotel Petite Etiquette Classes

In order to give parents a helping hand we are running a series of classes to help teach dinner etiquette to young ones. This guide is going to be called “Petite Etiquette” with some easy-to-learn tips and tricks.

The hotel will be hosting these one hour complimentary classes on April - 14th and 28th to teach children aged between five and ten a few basic table manners.

Places are limited so please contact the hotel to reserve a place.
The classes will then be hosted on a more regular basis during school half terms and holidays subject to demand. Please note - children must be supervised by a parent or guardian at all time.

Kids cause self conscious parents to skip lunch

  • One in five parents will abandon a meal out because of children’s bad behaviour

According to a poll of 2,000 parents with children aged five to ten; worrying about how their tots will behave in restaurants is the biggest cause for stress for nearly a third of parents (28%). They are worried about being left red faced by their children’s table manners. Nearly half (48%) of UK mums and dads admit to being embarrassed by their youngsters when dining out. One in five (19%) have left a restaurant mid-way through a meal because of their kids behaving badly.

Family Stays

At The Kensington Hotel we believe dining as a family should be a relaxing experience, and an opportunity for you to enjoy quality time together. We warmly welcome families to the hotel and are ideally located for those wishing to explore London. From children’s magazines in the rooms to milk and cookies on turn down, we aim to create a home away from home for every one of our little guests as a relaxing breakaway for their parents.
