Number Sixteen

London

This charming boutique hotel is set amongst white stucco townhouses on the tranquil streets of Sumner Place in South Kensington, offering a delightful escape in the heart of London. Behind the classic exterior lies a world of vibrant colours and whimsical designs curated by design director Kit Kemp. From the eclectic mix of prints to the eye-catching decor accents, each space delivers a playful yet sophisticated ambiance, inviting guests to unwind and explore the cosy sitting room, library, and the serene garden. The Orangery is the spot for hearty afternoon teas, enticing breakfast spreads and classic a la carte dining in a picturesque garden setting.

Vibrant and individually decorated, each of the 41 bedrooms showcases Kemp’s signature style with colourful fabrics and antique-style furniture. Inviting beds with striking headboards combine with bathrooms in tactile speckled granite walls, oak and luxurious toiletries to offer a welcoming haven. Whether facing the garden or overlooking the upscale residences on Sumner Place, each room offers a charming retreat from the bustling city.
