The Historic England listing describes them as "buildings of unusual design and marked picturesqueness".Bridget Cherry, writing in the 1991 London: North West edition of the Pevsner Architectural Guides, remarks of Holland Park Mews, "The grand entrance gate...and splendid parapets survive to distinguish these as very ritzy mews". The architectural critic Ian Nairn described the mews it as "a cathedral among mewses (sic)".The actor Ian Holm is a former resident of the mews.Roger Moore and Alexis Kanner filmed a scene from the 1969 film Crossplot on the mews, and Peter Cushing and Sue Lloyd went to a party held at the mews in the 1968 film Corruption.
