The Chelsea Townhouse has joined the luxury hotel and restaurant collection Relais and Chateaux as its second London member.
The boutique 36-room property opened in September 2023 following an extensive transformation of the former Draycott Hotel, and is a sister property to existing Relais & Chateaux member, 11 Cadogan Gardens.
The property is located across three Victorian red-brick townhouses and also forms part of the Iconic Luxury Hotels collection. For more information, see:
Relais and Chateaux was established in France in 1954, and now counts over 580 hotel and restaurant members across over 60 countries.
Relais & Chateaux is set to celebrate its 70th anniversary in May. Earlier this month we visited its first UK member – Chewton Glen in the New Forest – and will be publishing an interview with Relais & Chateaux’s president, Laurent Gardinier, in an upcoming issue of the magazine.
