It is hard to believe that a hotel as quiet and
Restful as draycott hotel can exist so
Close to londons busy chelsea and knightsbridge.
Thanks to thoughtful design and a passionate eye
For detail- an overall ambience has been created
To provide guests with a refuge from the hectic
Pace of the city. from the victorian antiques
That casually adorn the comfortable bedrooms to
The beautifully upholstered furniture in the
Drawing room and the library- everything about
Draycott hotel has been diligently well-
Conceived and executed. occupying 3 neighboring-
Late-nineteenth century houses in cadogan gardens
Just off sloane street- the rear of the house looks
Out over a leafy square- which adds to the
Tranquility of the place- and the front gives onto
A quiet street. each of the 35 bedrooms has been
Decorated with individual and personal touches - an
Indian ivory-and-ebony mirror here-a georgian-style
Canopy bed there - and each bears the name of a
Theatrical personality- j m barrie-david garrick-
Laurence olivier. this motif is carried through in
More detail with perhaps a tasteful print of the
Namesake or a faded photograph in a silver frame
In every room. such is the intimate atmosphere that
You could be forgiven for thinking you may have
Wandered into someones private home. indeed- the
Draycott hotel eschews the usual hotel lobby
In favor of an informal reception hall where guests
Are welcomed. banquettes and cozy armchairs provide
The perfect environment for a pre-dinner drink- or
Perhaps an afternoon snooze for weary shoppers.
Members of staff take a great deal of pride in
Anticipating and attending each guests particular
Needs- and you get a sense that nothing is ever too
Much trouble in the delightful world of draycott hotel.
