This budget hotel in a handsome townhouse close to Victoria station has pleasant, modern rooms, with cream walls, recessed lighting and teal padded headboards. They’re reasonably sized – there’s no need for beds to be against the wall – and all have a wardrobe, desk and en suite bathroom. In addition to doubles, there are singles, doubles with a sofa bed, twins and family rooms. Bear in mind that the stairs are steep and there’s no lift.
One of London’s most expensive residential areas, Belgravia is full of beautiful white townhouses and leafy green squares. Chic, expensive little boutiques line its few refined shopping streets, while on its west side, it segues naturally into the upmarket shopping hub of Knightsbridge. As you’d expect, the best hotels in Belgravia are mostly luxurious affairs, but the area’s proximity to Victoria Station has encouraged a few budget properties to put down roots too. Stand-out restaurants (also pricey) include Koffmann’s in the Berkeley and Ametsa with Arzak Instruction in the Halkin, and Belgravia is also home to some posh traditional pubs of note, including the Grenadier in Belgrave Square. Four tube stations stand at the area’s corners: Hyde Park Corner, Knightsbridge, Sloane Square and Victoria. Here’s our pick of the best hotels in Belgravia.
