15 Best Boutique Hotels in London With Turndown Tea, Lush Gardens, and Rooftop Bars | Condé Nast Traveler

"The vibe: Raffish yet mysterious  Location: Chelsea  Top amenities: Hans' Bar & Grill, with streetside dining Best for:  Shopping in nearby Knightsbridge There are 56 rooms at 11 Cadogan Gardens—not that you’d know. An amalgamation of four Victorian townhouses, connected by wiggling corridors and staircases that seem to go nowhere, its meandering premises gives it a homely feel—you’ll likely only become aware of the other guests at breakfast. Hidden off a residential square in Chelsea, just edging north of Sloane Square and near the shops of Knightsbridge, this isn’t a hotel zone, and 11 Cadogan Gardens masquerades perfectly as just another house. Once home to a private members’ club—it still has that slightly mysterious, raffish air—it’s now the only Relais & Chateaux property in the capital, with all-day restaurant Hans’ Bar & Grill backing onto Pavilion Road, the pretty pedestrianized street at the back of the hotel. In the past, rooms looked a little zany, and there’s still a bit of that left—like the odd dramatic black-and-gold four-poster bed, and the sexy dark-walled, dark-carpeted staircase—but today’s decor is largely boutique-chic with a hint of English countryside: think neutrals with bright pops of color found on bed cushions, armchairs, and headboards. In 2021, it opened The Apartments by 11 Cadogan Gardens—six apartments, each spread across an entire floor of a Victorian townhouse across the square from the hotel. Even the one-bed apartments have full kitchens. Back in the main building, there’s the moody Chelsea Bar, the plush library, and the Mirror Room—which, as the name suggests, is wall-to-wall mirrors." - Julia Buckley

"Near the posh shopping area of Sloane Square and occupying a series of Victorian townhouses, this small hotel in Chelsea offers some truly attractive communal areas. And you don’t have to be a guest to use them. There’s a small, clubby bar full of leather chairs and dark, moody lighting for an early-evening drink (or to escape the London drizzle). Our favorite spot, though, is the library. Dreamily quiet, its walls lined with old books and its tables stacked with newspapers, it’s a proper oasis for the freelancer or aspiring novelist—especially with a pot (and then another) of English breakfast tea. For those looking to sleepover, guestrooms are a lesson in English elegance, many with roomy, four-poster beds and picturesque views of the leafy park on the adjacent quiet square. "

11 Cadogan Gardens

"How did it strike you on arrival?You may get lost finding 11 Cadogan Gardens—even my taxi driver did. It’s hidden off a residential square in Chelsea, just north of Sloane Square, and is one of the last places you’d expect to find a hotel. It’s fairly hidden amid the red-brick terraced townhouses. Nice. What’s the crowd like?The crowd is well-heeled and slightly older—some repeat guests have been coming for years. The good stuff: Tell us about your room.I’ve stayed twice, with a renovation in between. There used to be a zany feel to all of the rooms and décor, which the refurb has largely done away with, but although I was concerned it might have drained the life out of the place, I loved the superior (one up from entry-level) room I stayed in. The look is boutique chic with a hint of English countryside—think floral curtains and elaborately carved mirror frames. The superior rooms aren’t enormous but feel cozy rather than tight. Certain suites and higher level rooms still have their original, outré décor, like the “Red Room,” which is more old-school aristocrat than Fifty Shades." We’re craving some deep, restorative sleep. They got us?The Hypnos beds are high, plush, and squashy—I slept beautifully. How about the little things, like mini bar, or shower goodies. Any of that find its way into your suitcase?Turndown includes lip balm, pillow mist and a mini Chelsea bun, just in case you'd forgotten your location and needed a sticky treat. Please tell us the bathroom won’t let us down.Good water pressure, plush towels and robes, and toiletries by Mayfair parfumier Ormonde Jayne. Maybe the most important topic of all: Wi-Fi. What’s the word?Free and super-fast Wi-Fi (100MB). Staff: If you could award one a trophy, who gets it, and why?Concierge William is a delight—extremely knowledgeable, passionate about the hotel and the area, and wonderfully chatty. I talked to him for ages, and never had a sense that I was in the way. Anything stand out about other services and features? Whether it’s childcare, gyms, spas, even parking—whatever stuck with you.A new restaurant is planned for 2018. What was most memorable—or heartbreaking—about your stay?William the concierge—seriously the highlight of the hotel. Bottom line: worth it, and why?Low-key luxury with personal service." - Julia Buckley

I was so impressed by this place. It is situated about 100 yards away from Sloane square but you wouldn't know it. The front is quiet in a typically expensive London square kind of way but around the back, you're on a bustling little street with numerous restaurants, bars and coffee shops. Don't worry, it's not noisy at night as there is a strict curfew. The staff were perfect as was the room but I was told there are some very small ones so be careful what you book. The layout inside is lovely with a basement restaurant which leads to the bustling street outside. We spotted a couple of A list celebrities there if you're into that kind of thing and nobody bothered them. It's that kind of place. As for the food, we only had bar snacks and breakfast but everything was very good especially the sausages. My only negative would be that the bar was closed when we returned to the hotel at 10.30 on a Saturday night in June. There were three people on reception. Finally, our friends were staying in the Chelsea Town House. It's the siister hotel about 50 yards away and is more well known. It's more expensive and half as good. Stick to 11!

Charming hotel as expected when it's a Relais et Châteaux. Common spaces are bigger than Chelsea townhouse, the second nearby Relais et Châteaux (sister company). This one has a library, a mirrors room, an afternoon tea area, a bar area, a gym... Our room (the 206), though, was rather small, and I was surprised that no cotton, cotton buds, and similar amenities were available in the (tiny) bathroom. Other than that, it surely lives up to the Relais et Châteaux standards. And the neighbourhood is pretty nice (pedestrian Pavillion road, Saatchi gallery...).

Absolutely recommend staying here. The location is fantastic. So many shops and restaurants around! The staff is friendly and accommodating. Our room was very comfortable and charming. WiFi was great. Bathroom in our suite was plenty large and we loved the big bathtub! We had a medication issue upon arrival and James, the concierge, was beyond helpful in helping us to find the right pharmacy to help us. Overall the stay was top notch. Would stay there again in a heartbeat!

As someone who has stayed in multiple different hotels among the 14 countries I’ve visited this is by far the worst hotel for everything besides location never had a noisier room absolutely no soundproofing. Been listening to kids scream for over an hour.The bathroom is questionable at best for the price of the room and I’m pretty sure multiple people have thrown up on the carpet in my room due to the stains very little storage space if your coming with dinner jackets or anything like that expect to hang them up in the hallway. Perhaps the worst thing of all is the door won’t fully close on the room unless you slam it don’t be in a rush to go anywhere or your room might end up being free access. Just more context about the noise got woken up at 1 am to someone screaming on the street 3 am was a car almost crashing never heard breaks squeal like that 5 am was car doors being slammed and god forbid the people above you have sex you hear the bed hitting the wall all these wonderful percs for a room that was 400 a night

Had the most delicious afternoon tea with family! The whole experience was perfect - from entering the hotel, to the food and the attentive (but not obtrusive) staff! A beautiful hotel with a lovely ambience-hidden away in Chelsea - highly recommend!

I usually really like to stay in Relais and Chateau properties, however, 11 Cadogan Garden, sadly has been the exception. The hotels quite gloomy and needs an update. Our room has absolutely nowhere to put clothes!! There is one small closet, no drawers!! The lights are impossible to figure out as well. The service is horrendous as well. WE are so disappointed in our stay.

I've stayed at 11 Cadogan three times within the last two years and it's a frustrating hotel. I love the location and the access to the delightful private garden, but my most recent stay will be my last.||The concierge is wonderful and has been working at the hotel for years, but other staff members seem new each visit I've made and this has caused issues, especially on my most recent visit. During my most recent stay, check-in took an age because the new staff member was clearly not trained enough to be doing check-ins on her own. She and her colleague also did not know where in the hotel our room was located and we had to wait for a more senior staff member to be free in order to direct us. We were double-billed, which the hotel resolved only when we noticed it and called it to their attention. Additionally, we were unable to reclaim some clothing accidentally left in the room because housekeeping claimed nothing had been left behind though this was untrue.

The basket of pastries is quite the deal. There are three large and exceptional quality for 6 pounds. The croissants are the best I've had since Paris. The scrambled eggs are soft and fluffy and the avocado with a poached egg on toast is delightful. This is our fourth visit for breakfast to this restaurant in the week. While previous visits the service was lovely and prompt, today's service was subpar. The seating was quick, but that's the only thing that was quick this morning. The waiter failed to bring out all items ordered and when the pastry baskets came out all of the pastries were cold and not warmed as before. The poached eggs were hard boiled and needed to be replaced and water was never brought to the table after three requests. I would give this restaurant a 2 overall rating if I had not previously rated it a 4 all along.

If you are a frequent visitor to London, you know all too well how small the standard hotel rooms are. Imagine my surprise when I was greeted by a spacious room complete with king size bed, workstation and solo chair by the huge flat screen TV. This hotel is tucked in a quiet neighborhood of knightsbridge and easily accessible via Sloane square station by underground. The bathroom was newly renovated with enough toiletries that made our stay even more comfortable. The staff, especially the reception and concierge are genuinely helpful, and I will definitely consider staying here next time I am in London and highly recommend it to others!

Mostly good. Excellent attentive staff, great location, close to Harrods, and quiet. But, it's costly.

We redeemed travel credits for a 3-night stay, and we were extremely pleased with the sumptuous room and attentive staff. The location is ideal with refurbished Pavilion Road around the corner, Sloane Square tube station 3 short blocks away, and walkable to Kensington, Knightsbridge, and Chelsea.

This was a rare gem we came across in London offering a traditional elegant English experience. Hotel staff was superb and accommodating. We were very satisfied with the room and overall experience. The breakfast downstairs in the restaurant was the best breakfast we had in our two weeks traveling London. We hope to stay here again!

A traditional English hotel that functions like an exclusive 'home away from home' overlooking Cadogan Gardens. We try to put clients up here if we can because it feels like a relaxed, stately home but has all the ammenities that one would expect from a modern hotel such as the Sanderson or the St Martins Lane Hotel. The rooms are sumptuous, the bar and restaurant are very glamorous and the concierge service is one of the best we have used in London. Single rooms start around the £100 mark, but doubles go for around £200.

Usually my family and I's food here is pretty good and reasonably priced. Yet today, unlike normal, our pastries were not warm, but cold, and we didn't get what we ordered in quantity and content in regards to the pastry basket. Also, you must ask for water here or else you will not get any and will die of dehydration, tragically, although perhaps the rain of London shall revive you. If you are lucky...

Stayed 2 nights (Oct 4&5) because near a friends apartment. Finally found our room down a convoluted hallway. Not well marked. Deluxe king. Room and bath were small but fine. Problem came with misinformation received from the concierge regarding a football match's availability of tickets. We were told not sold out and no problem getting tickets. Traveled all the way to the stadium to learn it was indeed sold out!! Extremely disappointed. We called the hotel from the stadium but the "concierge" was not helpful and denied telling the 4 of us that tix were available. We all got his information incorrect...I don't think so. So okay hotel with an okay staff.

This hotel is a time warp - I halfway expect to see Charles Dickens come down the creaky, wood-paneled staircase. The area (Cadogan Gardens) is residential, so it's very quiet. It is also just a few blocks away from Sloane Square (a tube stop). The service here is just as good as any five star hotel and at half the price. Definitely consider this hotel in your travel plans!

I stay at No.11 Cadogan Gardens right before the Olympics and I absolutely loved my stayed. The first thing you'll notice is that place has character. It is down right awesome. From the dark red and black bar to the oil paintings to the old fashion lift. It's awesome!!! I had been living in London for law school and my parents came to visit. After a lot of research I booked 2 rooms at No. 11. My parents arrived at 8 am and the staff had their room ready. After 7 hrs on a plane they were extremely grateful. The staff is first class. They always greeted you with a smile and asked about your day. The rooms are fantastic. The beds were extremely comfortable. The bathrooms are old fashion but very nice. They have everything the modern hotels have but with character. The bar and restaurant are very nice. The bartenders are twin brothers. They make a hell of a Hendricks and tonic. The restaurant serves a great breakfast and afternoon tea is amazing. After having afternoon tea there I was hooked. If you are looking for a unique hotel in a great neighborhood I suggest you check out No. 11 Cadogan Gardens. You won't be disappointed!!
