The Pelham Hotel Review

One of the first and most stylish of London's famed "boutique" hotels, this still-chic choice is but a short stroll away from the Natural History, Science, and V&A museums. At the end of a day's sightseeing you can settle down in front of the fireplace in the gorgeous, wood-panelled drawing room with its honor bar or retire to the stylish, contemporary guest rooms by the doyenne designer of boutique hotels, Kit Kemp. Downstairs, Bistro Fifteen offers a modern take on British cuisine.

    The Pelham Review

    Loved the hotel! Breakfast was fantastic...the room was large and the bathroom, generous. Cozy little rooms downstairs where you might have a drink or a read through the paper. Service was exceptional. And the location...just down from the V&A. Great restaurants in the vicinity as well. South Kensington tube just across the street. Romantic.
