London’s Chesterfield Hotel
London is without a doubt one of the most cosmopolitan and fascinating cities in the world. With a rich heritage, some of the world?s best attractions, museums, art galleries and activities I chose to head back to the capital for a few days of life in the big smoke.
?Quintessentially English? is the phrase that describes the Chesterfield Hotel perfectly. Located in one of the UK?s most desirable areas, Mayfair – it is just off Berkeley Square – the hotel oozes old school etiquette, décor and service. The 94 rooms and 16 suites are of the luxurious standard you would expect of a four star city hotel. Originally three Georgian townhouses, they were pulled together to form what is now known as the Chesterfield.
Library at the Chesterfield Hotel The hotel is part of the Red Carnation Hotel Collection all which have a very distinctive look, reflecting the tastes of South African-born Bea Tollman who is the current owner. Above all else Bea places a great deal of value on service, and requires an exacting standard from her staff. Most important to Bea is that the staff should try to anticipate the guest?s needs before they have to ask.
I was greeted upon arrival by the doorman who looked quite dandy in his top hat. And the classic British theme continues throughout with the marble-floored lobby, which has a couple of Chesterfield (of course) leather chairs dotted here and there. You could easily think you have mistakenly wandered into one of the private members club...
