The Cadogan Hotel is an elegant late Victorian terracotta brick building located on Sloane Street in Knightsbridge. It is the epitome of discreet distinction and combines every comfort with an atmosphere still characteristic of the late Victorian age when it was built. The Cadogan was once the home of Lillie Langtry who entertained her friends, King Edward VII and Oscar Wilde behind its discreet portals. Today, and for the past 100 years, it has been a welcoming haven for discerning visitors. The Cadogan enjoys a desirable location within easy walking distance of Harrods and Harvey Nichols, Hyde Park and The Victoria and Albert Museum. The Cadogan is part of Historic House Hotels who also own Hartwell House near Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, Middlethorpe Hall, York and Bodysgallen Hall in North Wales. For visitors to the UK, it is the gateway to these delightful country house hotels. The Cadogan is situated half way down Sloane Street between Knightsbridge and Sloane Square in SW1. This is a fashionable shopping area and Harrods, Harvey Nichols and Peter Jones are all within walking distance. Most of the world's most famous designers including Gucci, Chanel, Armani and Yves St Laurent have boutiques in Sloane Street. Nearest Underground stations are Knightsbridge and Sloane Square and buses pass the door. The hotel is accessible from all main line stations and Heathrow Airport is about one hour by taxi. Gatwick Airport can be reached by train from Victoria Station in less than one hour. Waterloo station and the Eurostar are twenty minutes away by taxi. Parking is available on meters or in a nearby car park. The hotel offers valet parking. Guests have access to Cadogan Place, a leafy private garden square just opposite the hotel.

Westminster Abbey Much of West London is high-class territory - Chelsea, Knightsbridge, and Kensington - this is where you'll find some of London's best-known museums, excellent shopping, and London's most beautiful parks. Until the 18th century Chelsea was a village harboring the grand country houses of the rich. Although it's riverside setting across from Battersea park ensures that it is still a favored place for the wealthy to live, it remains truly a reflection of all London has to offer. During the 60's it was fashionable with trendsetters and hippies who frequented King's Road. The heyday of punk also brought a colorful renaissance to the area. Today Chelsea is still very fashionable with many shops and cafes but it is not the counter culture Mecca that it once was. The best shopping, however, lies to the north of Chelsea in Knightsbridge which is virtually synonymous with Harrods and Harvey Nichols. Just west of Knightsbridge is Kensington which is another high end London neighborhood. South Kensington is the place to come to for museums such as the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Science Museum, and the Natural History Museum, while High Street Kensington is a shopper's paradise. During your stay at the Cadogan, be sure to explore Hyde Park and Holland Park, they are most enjoyable during the spring and summer where you'll see many vibrant flowers and lazy sunbathers.
