By turns ‘whimsical’ and stylish, this Pimlico hotel holds spellbinding surprises for wizards and Muggles alike.

The classic, white-painted, 19th-century façade of this family-run Pimlico hotel, on a uniformly attractive and tranquil garden square, gives no clue to the high-tech boutique interiors.

On the corner of a leafy Pimlico street, close to Sloane Square, this handsome cream-coloured stucco building has relaxed and smart interiors that make it a popular neighbourhood eatery topped with four airy bedrooms.

An affordable oasis in one of London’s smartest neighbourhoods, Charlotte and Matt Goodsall’s peaceful, personably run Belgravia hotel occupies a pair of Grade II listed Georgian townhouses and is within walking distance of popular tourist spots.

A home away from home in the heart of Chelsea is the aim of these red brick Victorian town houses, which have been converted into a luxurious hotel of dazzling individuality.

'Traditional with a capital T’, The Goring epitomises grand Edwardian luxury from its silk-lined walls and liveried footmen to its brass-trimmed lift and secret garden.

Guests receive royal treatment at this ‘superb, wonderful’ and discreet hotel on the fifth floor of a historic building close to Buckingham Palace.

One in an elegant row of white stucco Edwardian town houses, this small hotel is a short walk from Hyde Park, the Royal Albert Hall and London museums.
