Baglioni Hotel

Kensington’s Baglioni Hotel, housed in a beautiful Georgian building overlooking Hyde Park, is where a tanned, Bulgari-dripping clientele park Vuitton travel cases amid cascading water features, dark-wood floors and oversized gold vases. Its Brunello restaurant is a fashionable hangout for those in search of high-end Italian flavours, and downstairs members’ club Sixty caters for West London’s champagne- and cocktail-quaffing classes.
