This exclusive retreat rests gracefully among London's most respected museums and enticing shopping venues, all an easy walking distance for hotel guests. Visit the Natural History Museum in the morning, and spend a lavish afternoon at Harrods - all with plenty of time to be back in your room for a relaxing soak in a marvelously Victorian-designed bath.

A wonderful return to this most beautiful hotel, ideally located for the best of London!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

Wonderfully located in the heart of South Kensington, this beautiful hotel and its welcoming staff, is ideally placed to enjoy the best of London’s shopping, restaurants, galleries, parks and beyond. The excellent facilities including lounges, restaurants, cocktail bar and well equipped gymnasium, you feel at home and relaxed to enjoy all on offer. My room was well equipped and spacious, complimenting the quality of the hotel. Highly recommended for business and personal travellers alike

George and Antonio were amazing!! Stumbled here for a drink at the bar and had such a lovely experience. Both were super lovely, funny, and accommodating. Not to mention the bar was beautiful and the drinks were fab. Will most definitely be coming back.
