We recently stayed at the San Domenico Hotel in Chelsea, London. Overall, our experience was a mix of delightful and disappointing aspects. On the positive side, the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The hotel is located in a fantastic, walkable area with plenty of shops, restaurants, and things to do. We loved exploring the neighborhood and enjoying the local cuisine. However, there were some significant drawbacks. The furniture in the rooms was extremely old, to the point where it felt like staying in a thrift store. While we understand the charm of historic decor, the visible damage and wear detracted from the boutique hotel feel. The room layout was also a bit odd, and the amenities were subpar. Another inconvenience was the bathroom design. The bathtub was narrow and uncomfortable to stand in, especially under the ceiling shower head. It made the showering experience uncomfortable. Additionally, the shower controls were confusing with no clear labels for on/off or hot/cold, and we needed assistance from the staff to figure it out. Lastly, the hallways and elevators were very narrow, almost claustrophobic, which added to the feeling of being in a confined space. Despite these issues, we appreciated the warm hospitality and the lovely location. With some updates to the rooms and clearer instructions for amenities, it could offer a truly exceptional stay.

What a gem! The property was delightful with a very English elegance and careful attention to detail. Not only were all the staff incredibly friendly and helpful but they clearly have 'make our guests feel welcome and valued' at the front of their mind. The room - a split floor wirh canopy bed - was great. The breakfast was plentiful, good quality and delicious. I only wish I'd had more time to lounge around the sitting room with a drink and enjoy the hospitality. Next time! As I am already planning my return...great hotel, great staff, great location and a really warm atmosphere. Ideal.

London Chelsea Gem

This is a London gem of a hotel. My wife and I felt like royalty immediately upon arrival. The desk agent had our bags delivered to our room and personally escorted us to our accommodations. The room was magnificent, beautifully appointed with a balcony and nice views of Chelsea. The included continental breakfast was very nice in a wonderfully decorated dining space. This hotel is very conveniently located close to Sloane Square, King’s Road, South Kensington, shopping and dining options. The service was excellent and professional.
