A terrific addition to Kit Kemp’s Firmdale portfolio, this block-sized building was designed by John Nash, the architect of Regency London. The public spaces are a delight, with Kemp’s trademark combination of contemporary arty surprises and plump, floral sofas. Wow-factors include the bling basement swimming pool and bar (shiny sofas, twinkly roof) and the central location.
Rooms are generously sized (as are the bathrooms), individually decorated and discreetly stuffed with facilities, and there’s plenty of attention from the switched-on staff.The street-side bar and restaurant are top- notch and the breakfast is exquisite.
