Hi, I will be traveling in London next week and if someone could point out a church in the Kensington / Chelsea or London City areas, it would be appreciated. Thank you.

I assume from the fact that you’ve posted this on the Traditional Catholicism page that you’re looking for a Traditional church.
Corpus Christi church off Covent Garden, in Central London, does a sung Latin mass on Mondays at 6.30pm.
St James’, Spanish Place, near Marylebone, has a Latin low mass every Sunday at 9.30am, and is also a very impressive looking old gothic church building.
Brompton Oratory is proably the nearest to Kensington & Chelsea and has a low mass at 9.00am.
St Bede’s, Thornton Road, near Balham underground station (some way out of Central London, maybe 45mins on the underground) has a sung Tridentine high mass every Sunday, and a said Tridentine every weekday at 7am. St Bede has a reputation of being the Traditionalists’ unofficial headquarters in London.
More info and a searchable map available at:
latin-mass-society.org/masses/
For a very traditional, very impressive, respectful and proper mass in English according to the New Rite, I’d suggest making your way to Westminster Cathedral near Victoria underground station.

Thank you very much. 
I actually posted here because I didn’t know where to post. I actually haven’t ever been to a TLM yet, but my parish does the NO w/ the sung stuff in latin and are very reverent and traditional. I see from their website, Westminster has a sung mass.
I thought Westiminster was Anglican. See how silly I am.
I think going to Westminster will be best. Thank you again.

I would also recommend St Anselm and St Caecilia, on Kingsway, quite near the Strand. (also close to the British Museum).
Holy Mass is in the Novus Ordo Rite but celebrated very reverently. There is also Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and Benediction on Saturdays from 4pm. The Sunday 12pm Mass is in Latin and is sung.
Westminster Cathedral is breathtaking - some beautiful mosaics and stunning architecture.
Have a lovely time in London, and I hope the weather holds out for you, we are still having some lovely sunny days!

Westminster Cathedral is indeed beautiful! I went to Mass there, NO with a schola that sang the common parts in Latin. Very beautfiul.
Brompton is also amazing. See the Altar to the English Martyrs.

Westminster has the NO in Latin (with readings in English) at 10.30am (I think).
It really is beautiful
There is also a sung NO Mass about 5pm with a fantastic choir.
