Durley House Hotel,Chelsea
Walk up the steps towards the entrance of Durley House and you can actually believe that you are walking into the entrance way of a private residence.
The wooden panelling invites you through to the welcoming reception area, where you are met by the warmth of the glowing fireplace, surrounded by cushioned fenders. As a guest, all you have to do is to sit and rest your weary feet. A portrait of Lord Durley greets you - no doubt holding so many secrets surrounding the history of Durley House.
Just off to the right, you are enticed into the cosy sitting room - ideal for taking afternoon tea after an exhaustive day visiting the sights of London, or perhaps just help yourself to an aperitif from the private bar, before venturing out for an evening´s entertainment at the theatre or to dine at one of London´s many fine restaurants.
The imposing staircase leading from the reception, soon takes you away to another era - that of the grandeur and comfort of the eleven magnificently furnished suites.
