It's not cheap, but this superbly distinctive boutique Pimlico hotel elevates the concept of shabby chic to new heights: sporadic bare brick and each piece of furniture and decor individually sourced and crafted, from the reclaimed parquet floors and vintage furniture to retro Smeg fridges. All 10 rooms have rainforest showers – for grand free-standing baths, upgrade to the suites.
Room 5 faces to the back. The acme is the stunner Club Suite (room 4). No lift.
