11 Cadogan Gardens

Tucked away in a residential part of the prestigious Cadogan Estate lies 11 Cadogan Gardens, part of Relais & Châteaux since November 2019. Spread across red-bricked terrace townhouses the hotel has access to a private square, a rarity in central London. There's a feeling of Britishness to the interiors with wooden paneling throughout and framed portraits line the carpeted staircases. Bedrooms and suites have large windows and range from ‘Petite Rooms’, perfect for single occupancy, to opulent suites such as the vast 1,300 square feet Sloane Suite and everything in between. The en-suite marble bathrooms can be on the small side but don't let this put you off as they are immaculate and clad in marble from top to toe. The Hans’ Bar & Grill has a fresh, airy feel with plants hanging from skylights and an extensive menu (24 hour room service available) with an à la carte breakfast and some of the best scrambled eggs around. It's open to non-residents and can be accessed from the bustling Pavilion Road.

Italian chef, Antonio Aniello and his classically trained brigade cook up a storm at Hans’ Bar & Grill, which is open all day. Menus are rooted in fresh British produce and served with an Italian twist. Eat in or out or just stop by for a delicious cocktail.

Just a few steps from Sloane Street and the Kings Road 11 Cadogan Gardens is one of the best positioned luxury hotels in Chelsea - ideal for the Chelsea Flower Show, shopping or simply a night or two of luxury.

Why do people love staying in your hotel? Guests love the property for its sense of individuality, evidenced through the myriad of corridors, staircases and hallways throughout, alongside the uniquely decorated boutique suites. The property was formerly a private members club and the sense of privacy and exclusivity still remains. Some unique features of the property that guests love include: - The 'cabinet of curiosities’ which greets guests upon arrival and is filled with legendary historical pieces, inspired by Sir Hans Sloane’s collections of botanical, zoological and mineral objects which formed the basis of the Natural History and British Museum. - The elevator adds to the townhouse’s classic charm as it is built with old-school flair like a paternoster with vintage-style brass gates. - Each year in May for Chelsea in Bloom, the property indulges its red brick exterior in themed floral displays. In 2018, the hotel won Gold for their “Hippy Fabulous” extravaganza by acclaimed florist Larry Walshe; a design inspired by carefree days spent running through wildflower fields.
