The HUX Kensington bar beneath its crystal chandelier, backed by a lit spirits display
Kensington · Private Hire

A house that shuts its doors to everyone else for the night.

HUX Kensington takes forty guests, a hundred, or the whole building. Private dining, a bar that never has to close, and rooms enough to keep everyone under one roof.

A note from the house
The best events don't feel organized. They feel like they happened somewhere real.

We built HUX in Kensington for guests who like their nights a little richer — and it turns out that's exactly what a launch, a wrap party, or a client dinner needs too. No ballroom energy, no conference-hotel carpet. Just a house that already looks like it's hosting something interesting, because it usually is.

The house has held launches, dinners and charity events that people still talk about.

Private Hire

A bar that opens, and closes, on your schedule.

For private events, the bar is yours — early doors for a lunchtime launch, or open well past our usual last call for something that shouldn't have to end. A dedicated bar team, a short but serious cocktail list, and a room that already looks like the party started an hour ago.
