$450-650/ yö
Varaa tämä, jos You want to feel like a wealthy Victorian eccentric with a key to London's most exclusive private garden.
Miksi ihmiset rakastuvat sitä
- Exclusive access to the private Cadogan Gardens park
- Hans' Bar & Grill opens directly onto the artisan-filled Pavilion Road

Pikakatsaus: A moody, creaky-floored aristocratic fantasy that trades modern spaciousness for genuine Chelsea character.
Arvioinut @conciergekate: I felt like the main character in a period drama staying here. The red velvet suite is incredibly moody and romantic, and the mirrored dining room is the perfect spot for champagne. It’s my favorite hidden gem in Chelsea.

💡The 'Petite' rooms really are just a bed and a bathroom door—luggage space is non-existent.
💡The scent in the lobby (Ormonde Jayne) is intoxicating and you can buy the candles.
💡Room service burgers from Hans' Bar & Grill are excellent and worth the splurge.
