“What sets this hotel apart is its bold, artistic interiors envisioned by Anouska Hempel, reminiscent of a chic private club; even better, it pioneered the boutique hotel concept in London. The discreet Kensington location provides immediate access to curated high streets, while inside, one discovers an intimate basement bar and tailored service, designed for a truly special experience. I think it's a remarkable and stylish retreat.”
