Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
This is a very poor care facility which seems very confused about itself. 'Careless' as another inmate described it.
The entertainment is abysmal, the care is non-existent & the so called carers need reminding about everything, they're not busy they just don't give a damn. All I can say is come here
as respite for a couple of weeks but go elsewhere for long term care.
Reply from Charlotte Fletcher, Marketing Manager at Loveday KensingtonThank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to read that your experience did not meet expectations.
At Loveday Kensington, we hold ourselves to consistently high standards across care, service and daily life, and it is disappointing to learn that this was not reflected in your stay.

I am 95 years old and my daughter, who is my primary carer, had to go away for a few days. So, knowing that I would be well looked after, I recently had an excellent fortnight's respite in Loveday Kensington, where we knew that the accommodation was first class. The care was all one could wish for.
The entertainment and activities provided were stimulating, especially the quizzes, and chair yoga, under the watchful eye of the responsible carers was highly beneficial. The varied and delicious food was equal to the top hotels, as was the service, and the general atmosphere was friendly and relaxing, without being patronising.
Thanks to all the team at Loveday Kensington for being so welcoming.
Reply from Victoria Abrahams, Regional Relationship Partner at Loveday KensingtonWe loved having you stay with us recently for a holiday respite. It's wonderful to read how all elements of your stay were thoroughly enjoyed. We lead with excellent care but lifestyle, hospitality and events are all so important. We hope to see you again soon.

Nestled in a corner, and surrounded with inspirationally planted borders, Loveday Kensington is the most beautifully appointed care home imaginable. The staff and care are equally outstanding. My husband thinks he is living in a multi-starred hotel and it is with the greatest pleasure that I visit
and frequently stay to enjoy lunch or dinner with him, and the afternoon recitals given by young musicians and singers. If the time comes when I too need looking after, I can only hope that I also may move in.
Reply from Victoria Radmore, Relationship Partner at Loveday KensingtonThank you for your kind words. It's a real pleasure not only support your husband but to have you visit each day aswell. We are delighted to hear how happy you are with the support we provide including our events.

We used Loveday Kensington for our dad for some temporary care, and it has worked out great. The staff were great from the start making sure his care needs were well understood. He is a very happy there and is getting involed with all the numerous recreational activities. He has never looked so well
kept. The place is great, top quality, well designed with plenty of communual spaces. The food and dinning service is more like a restaurant with attentive waiters. Lots of different family members and friends have been to visit Dad and they are all well impressed in how well Dad looks as well as how his care and medical needs are dealt with. The Membership Manager and the staff keep the family well up to date on our Dad and the communication is supper. Thanks to all the team at Loveday for making dad's introduction to proffesional care such a success.
Reply from Victoria Radmore, Membership Manager at Loveday KensingtonIt has been our pleasure to get to know Dad and support him with a holiday respite stay, we are delighted he would like to stay longer. Thank you, for recognising how exceptional our dining offering is as well as our communication.We look forward to seeing you soon on your next visit.

Every member of staff at Loveday Kensington whom I have interacted with has been wonderful, not only in carrying out their tasks, but in their care, concern and kindliness. The home is beautifully run, and has the cleanliness and quiet efficiency of a top-rate hotel. My sister has improved greatly since
she came out of hospital, in part because the food at Loveday is of a high standard, tasty and nutritious. She is really well looked after physically and psychologically. They do an impressive job at Loveday Kensington.
Reply from Victoria Radmore, Membership Manager at Loveday KensingtonThank you for taking the time to leave a review.

The staff at Loveday Kensington were exceptionally helpful from the start. It was a rush as my mother was to be discharged from hospital just before Christmas. This did not phase the staff at all. They all sprang into action and went above and beyond. My mother became a resident on Christmas Eve and
has been happy ever since. Activities are numerous, with residents encouraged to attend. The place is pristine, well laid out and open plan which means the residents are never isolated or lonely. The food is outstanding and the dining room service redolent of a restaurant, with attentive waiters. For those visiting, every attention is paid, with welcoming cups of tea/coffee/anything else to greet one, together with a selection of snacks and pastries. The residents look well-kept and clean and cared for. Medical care is impressive. One can bring in small items of furniture to make the pleasant rooms even more comfortable. One can visit at any time. Communication with the family is excellent.
Reply from Victoria Radmore, Membership Manager at Loveday KensingtonThank you for taking the time to write a review, it really has been our pleasure to help and have your mother join us at Loveday Kensington. We know how much of a stressful time it was just before Christmas, and we are delighted that we could help and make things a little easier. It's great to see your mother benefiting from all of the wonderful events that take place throughout the week and we thoroughly enjoy having wider family visit too.

My 83 year old mum was recovering from surgery. I was her primary caregiver. I had to travel for 2 weeks and I am glad I chose Loveday Kensington. She felt like she had gone on a spa holiday. A place where all her needs were attended to with a lot of recreational activities to keep her active. Thank
you so much to everyone.

Very easy registration.
Extremely welcoming care-staff who go to extraordinary lengths to make sure that you are comfortable.
Very accommodating kitchen staff who cook extremely enjoyable food.
Cleaning staff are conscientious.
Most of all the lengths that every member of the staff go to establish

The activities, both at the home and in theatres, are really well thought out.

Thank you for the wonderful care my 93-year-old father received after his stay in hospital for a broken leg. Loveday is efficiently run and the staff are professional and caring. Physio staff were expert and compassionate and put him on the road to mobility in preparation for coming home. Highly recommended.

My husband needs care and we both needed a holiday! Loveday was the ideal venue to satisfy these needs together. I was able to go to exhibitions, theatres and films and not worry about my husband. Family who lives locally were able to visit and share in our exploration of the area. We both joined in
exercise classes and listened to in-house afternoon concerts. The care and concern for our welfare was amazing. The overall atmosphere was friendly, calm, fun and very professional. All the staff seemed to enjoy their work and had time to interact with residents whilst going about their work. It takes great organisational skills and of course, a good staff-to-resident ratio to be able to take on wide-ranging and complex tasks and make them seem easy. At the end of our stay, we were sorry to leave our adopted family who had helped fill our days with love.
Truly a five-star experience.
Reply from Daisy Slavkova, Registered General Manager at Loveday KensingtonThank you for your time sharing your experience at Loveday Kensington.

Before placing our loved one who was suffering from early-stage dementia into a care home, we visited many providers in and around the greater London area. Once we found Loveday, our search was over. There is simply no comparison to the quality of facilities and care that they have to offer. Our family
member spent 4 years in Loveday's care, and we could not be more impressed and thankful for the treatment he received. The food is excellent, the facilities are top-notch, and the staff are all very kind and professional. They seem to have very low turnover with their staff, which is wonderful for the residents to have long-term consistency with their caretakers. We received regular updates from the staff, and they were also very accommodating to assist us with having video calls at any hour of the day or night, which was very comforting for us. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Loveday's services. Your loved one will be very well cared for here.

My husband is a member of Loveday Kensington, and he enjoys attending The Day Club about 2-3 days a week regularly. I feel blessed to have found Loveday Kensington in our local area and have had the wonderful opportunity for my husband to spend quality time there. During my thorough search for several
day centers and social circles of dementia friendly, I happened to know about Loveday. Loveday Kensington is ideal and great for him as they offer a wide variety of activities not only during the week but also at the weekends.
Through our wonderful experience with Loveday Kensington for the past 5 months, we have found all the staff, we have met are very kind, friendly, caring and attentive to each resident, member and their family. I would say that becoming a member of The Day Club is a great way to get to know Loveday better and explore their several care services for a long-term period. I am now planning to use their short stay service for my husband sometime soon.

With good reason Loveday is considered the crème de la crème of care homes. It is a very luxurious space with gorgeous rooms, entertainment (a particular member of staff is a gem!) and delicious food. More than that it is a very happy place with the most kind and caring staff who have a genuine rapport
with the residents and family members. My 95-year-old mother has been there for over 18 months and I could not imagine her anywhere else. My brother and I drop in at various times of the day and evening and have always felt welcome. She is happy there and I go to sleep soundly at night knowing that she is being treated with kindness, respect and love.

Good service and reliable.

As a patient recovering from an operation the care and physio support were very good indeed.
An area to be improved is rooms to be designed with the type of patient in mind.
Nursing was first rate and food quality was adequate.

I feel very fortunate to have found Loveday - I stayed with the team for care after surgery and I couldn't have asked for more. The team was polite and friendly, with amazing food and very tastefully decorated spaces. What I particularly liked was the transparency of care, while I was there for post-surgery
care I was so impressed with the level of care other residents received. I wish there were facilities like this in Ireland.

The care at Loveday exceeded very high expectations. It is expensive and beautifully presented, but the care provided lived up to and exceeded what I could have hoped for. My wife entered the facility bedridden with a prognosis of continuing so for the rest of her life. By the time she left, she was
walking with minimal help and doing her physio exercises and she was sitting in her chair all day. But most of all, her mental attitude changed form defeated and hopeless to determined and hopeful. It provided a really sound platform for her continued rehabilitation at home. These may sound like baby steps, but compared to the prognosis when she left hospital (after five months) they are great strides. To misquote: one small step, but a great leap for my wife.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.513)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.513) out of 10 for Loveday Kensington is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 15 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.638 for Loveday Kensington is calculated as follows: ( (152 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (8 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 188 Ratings = 4.638
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.875 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Loveday Kensington is based on 15 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.875
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 15 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
