12,840 reviews
As the official London home of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge—along with their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—Kensington Palace's fame rivals that of Buckingham Palace. Will and Kate aren't the only members of the royal family to walk the halls of Kensington Palace, though; King George II, Queen Victoria, Queen Anne, Princess Margaret, and Princess Diana have all also called Kensington Palace home.
