Imagine an English country home magically whisked to the most exclusive London borough, and you have The Gainsborough Hotel. Named after the celebrated artist, whose portrait of the Duchess of Richmond graces the light, spacious lounge and reception, The Gainsborough combines the attractive style of bygone days with an easy informality.

To stay at this London hotel is to enjoy the London of fashionable South Kensington, Harrods, the restaurants, and antiques markets, pubs and delightful backwaters of Chelsea and Knightsbridge. You're at the heart of the capital's culture too with the great museums - Science, Natural History, the Victoria & Albert - nearby; and, for music lovers, the glorious Royal Albert Hall, just minutes away.

If you're here on business you're equally well served, being on a direct line to London Heathrow Airport and close to the exhibition centers of Earls Court and Olympia.

Comments from past clients -

...It's the little things that make a big impression.  At the Gainsborough it was -
     - the "human size" lobby - intimate, much like a private living room
     - the always smiling faces of the people at the front desk
     - the cheerful greetings we recieved, coming or going from the hotel
     - the delightful breakfast choices
     - the ever-cheerful and quick responses to our "settling in" requests
