“In my opinion, this property offers a unique blend of classic English decor and modern luxury in Knightsbridge, moments from prime retail and cultural hotspots. I was particularly impressed with the personalized service and the intimate bar, a welcome departure from larger establishments. The spacious accommodations, with their soaking tub/shower, provide a comfortable, if slightly imperfect, retreat from the city's bustle.”
