Experts' Choice Award Number Sixteen
What the experts agree on
Kit Kemp's converted townhouses blend individually designed, colorful rooms with a home-like intimacy. Highlights include a tranquil Victorian garden and standout South Kensington location near the Tube.
“Guest rooms at this lovely luxury guesthouse... look like they come from the pages of Architectural Digest, and the delightful garden is an added bonus.”
– Fodor's
