Templeton Garden, Earl’s Court
If The Chancery Rosewood is not quite within your budget, don’t worry. A stylish alternative has just cropped up in Earl’s Court, and at £200/night, it’s a more affordable option for your stay.
Templeton Garden is built around a PROPER garden courtyard, which gives it a calm, relaxed charm that most other London hotels don’t offer. Inside, you’ll find a modern British restaurant, a cool cocktail bar called Sprout and my favourite thing of all: a Refresh Room, where guests can shower and change before check-in or after check-out.
If you’ve ever had an early morning arrival after a long haul or a red-eye flight home, you’ll understand immediately why this is such a good idea.
The only caveat to staying here is that Earl’s Court isn’t super central, but it’s still very well-connected by Tube to major attractions and Heathrow Airport, so if you’re okay with not being right in the heart of the action, then you’ll love it here. (WA)
