Holland Park is an area of Kensington, on the western edge of Central London,[1] that lies within the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and largely surrounds its namesake park, Holland Park.

Colloquially referred to as 'Millionaire's Row', Holland Park is among the most expensive residential areas in London and the United Kingdom.[2][3] Past and present residents include David and Victoria Beckham, Sir Elton John, David Cameron, Ed Sheeran, Sir Richard Branson, and Robbie Williams, among others.[4][5] The small neighborhood is further home to the embassies of several countries, including Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Greece, Jordan, Russia and Lebanon.

The area is principally composed of tree-lined streets with large Victorian mansions and contains shops, cultural tourist attractions such as the Design Museum, luxury spas, hotels, and restaurants along Holland Park Avenue and Kensington High Street.
