The Franklin London - Starhotels Collezione
About
Set in an elegant Victorian building nestling in the lush beauty of the private Egerton Gardens, The Franklin combines the warmth of a private home with the impeccable service of a luxury hotel. The hotel was refurbished by celebrity designer Anouska Hempel, whose work has helped create a temple to hospitality. Here, the charm of an English house meets the magic of Italian design, and the result is a unique, original style that has transformed The Franklin into one of the most outstanding boutique hotels on the London scene. Its common areas are embellished with sumptuous Italian velvets and silks, exclusive furnishings in grey tones and sophisticated decorative objects. Every one of the 35 spacious rooms and suites is a distillation of elegance and style. Flooded with natural light, tastefully decorated and boasting the finest contemporary comforts, they are sure to live up even the most demanding expectations. Most offer views of Knightsbridge or the lush green of Egerton Gardens. The Franklin Restaurant offers a superb gastronomic experience created by Michelin-starred Chef Alfredo Russo. The Franklin Bar is a stylish, Gatsby-esque world, a wonderful place to enjoy a Martini cocktail or a glass of Champagne. The Franklin offers very high standards of personalized service with Les Clefs d'Or Concierges, 24-hour room service and a team dedicated to organizing unforgettable experiences for the guests. The hotel also features a spectacular hammam, a fitness center, and a cozy library.
