Hotel Review
Knightsbridge Hotel, London
A snazzy London townhouse (three of them, in fact) on quiet, plane tree-lined Beaufort Gardens, Knightsbridge Hotel is part of the Firmdale Hotels group. As such, you'll find the mix of imagination, quirkiness and whimsy that is owner/designer Kit Kemp's trademark style. The feature of the group's hotels is their individuality and this one is no exception, from the bedrooms to the lovely Drawing Room and Library, where food can be served (there is no formal restaurant). Service is discreet and on the ball, while the hotel's location, a short stroll from Harrods, makes it a favourite for many - and after a day pounding the streets, the hotel also offers various in-room massages and treatments.

Style & Character
Anyone with a penchant for the quirky and a taste for chic, yet understated surroundings will like it here, as well as art lovers and high-end shoppers. We love the supremely relaxed atmosphere and the (free) red apples in the lobby.
Service & Facilities
We loved our massage, and having Kit Kemp products for sale, such as the Firmdale pencil boxes, is a nice touch.

Rooms
The spacious Knightsbridge Suite is very special but you won't go wrong in any of these characterful rooms. The thought that has gone into the design, often neglected in hotel rooms, is fantastic - and the Pure radio!
