In the dashing London townhouse of The Pelham London, classic English charm meets the spirit of modern city living. Inspired by an eclectic personality, the boutique hotel is a stylish home away from home in one of London’s most vibrant neighbourhoods. Situated directly opposite South Kensington Station and within easy reach of the Natural History Museum, Victoria & Albert Museum, and Science Museum, The Pelham offers an ideal base among the city’s most renowned attractions.
With interiors designed by Kit Kemp, The Pelham’s 51 rooms and suites are individual celebrations of colour and character, where bold patterns, antiques, and playful art pieces create a warm, inviting atmosphere. The library and drawing room nod to a grand English country home, and offer the perfect backdrop for an afternoon tea.
La Trattoria
A cosy Italian restaurant in the heart of South Kensington, La Trattoria is reminiscent of a traditional Italian diner, with a homely, relaxed atmosphere. Led by Head Chef Roberto Roncolato, La Trattoria honours timeless Mediterranean cooking, bringing heritage recipes from the heart to the table.
The restaurant’s inspiration comes from family rituals and memories of long Sundays spent around the table, sharing fresh pasta and unhurried conversation. It forms the basis of what Chef Roberto calls a “patient cuisine”: a way of cooking and eating that takes time, honouring Italian tradition by returning to its roots and letting simple ingredients speak for themselves.
