From the sweetest smelling flowers in the lobby to the temptingly plumped sofas in the lounge, it´s the attention to detail that makes The Colonnade in Little Venice distinctively different. Unusual touches include the JFK Suite, which features the bed made for John F. Kennedy’s visit in 1962, and the Turing Suite, named after the mathematician responsible for breaking the Enigma code during World War II who was born here in 1912. Behind the beautiful Victorian façade of The Colonnade is a charming boutique hotel that is both elegant and distinguished in character. Built as two separate residences in 1865, The Colonnade continues to extend all the intimacy and comfort of a luxurious private home. The hotel has 43 guestrooms including eight suites, each carefully adorned in sumptuous fabrics and lavish antiques to uphold the unique ambiance prevalent throughout. Egyptian cotton linen adorns the beds and guests are provided with tea and coffee making facilities and cozy robes and slippers for those quiet, down-time moments. Some rooms have individually designed terraces and four-poster beds, while all have air-conditioning and CD players. Guests choosing the Colonnade will appreciate its elegance and charm, which perfectly captures the atmosphere of refined London living.
