The Beaufort is one of London’s real hidden little gems that you want to keep to yourself but are keen to let the whole world know about. And comments in the hotel’s guestbook are testimony as to its lasting popularity and why it has been such an enduring part of London’s boutique hotel scene: beautiful, charming, personable, friendly. Recently redecorated in a more modern and contemporary style, it has been lavishly appointed but has not lost any of its original charm and grace. It is a very welcoming and immaculately kept hotel where civilities extended to guests include complimentary afternoon tea as well as drinks from the bar. In fact, the only extra’s to pay for are telephone calls and breakfast. Rates on offer for such a unique experience make the Beaufort one of the best value for money hotels in London. And given its setting in a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac in the middle of Knightsbridge, you couldn’t ask for a better location.
