11 Cadogan Gardens

11 Cadogan Gardens was built by Lord Chelsea in the late 19th century and originally comprised four separate Victorian town houses. This helps explain the myriad of corridors, staircases and hallways throughout the hotel, and why it's not uncommon to find a bemused guest wandering the corridors having taken a wrong turn. With a fabulous location in such a prestigious area, the hotel became vastly popular as a home from home for travelling Victorian aristocrats, politicians and bon viveurs. In that progressive era, the area was known as something of a bohemian quarter, attracting notable personalities including radicals, artists and poets. Though nothing can truly prepare you for the dramatic, juxtaposing character of our boutique hotel, our gallery will definitely whet your appetite in anticipation of your visit.
