The Spotlight on The Pelham

Luxury Vibes in the Heart of South Kensington

Set in a classic townhouse just steps from South Kensington Tube Station, The Pelham delivers boutique charm and upscale comfort in one of London’s most desirable neighborhoods. With a blend of antique and modern décor, this stylish hotel is ideal for concert-goers looking for elegance and convenience. Whether you’re heading to a show at the Royal Albert Hall or a late gig around Kensington, The Pelham offers a plush home base.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location, location, location! The Pelham is within walking distance of the Royal Albert Hall, and just a quick Tube ride to central London’s biggest music venues. After the show, retreat to a quiet, comfortable room with soundproofed walls and air-conditioning. With flexible check-in from 13:00 and a generous checkout at 12:00, it's perfect for sleeping in after a late night. The hotel’s excellent transport links mean you can make it back easily—even after encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish central base
  • Solo travelers catching a once-in-a-lifetime gig
  • Couples turning a concert into a romantic weekend
  • Fans who need a calm, luxurious place to wind down post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers seeking value in a high-end neighborhood

Food and Drink Options

La Trattoria by Alfredo Russo serves up Michelin-starred Italian cuisine featuring organic wines and fresh local ingredients—a perfect pre- or post-concert treat. The hotel also offers afternoon tea in the drawing room, and with several walkable eateries and cafes nearby, you won’t go hungry. Breakfast is available, ideal for those slow mornings after a late night.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel doesn’t host live music, the nearby Kensington nightlife more than makes up for it. From classy wine bars to lively pubs, you’ll find plenty of options for a post-show drink. Or, keep it low-key in the hotel’s charming bar with a glass of champagne or a crafted cocktail.

What People Say

Guests love the elegant interiors and friendly service, often highlighting the comfort of the rooms and the unbeatable location. Many reviews mention how easy it is to get to local venues and the peaceful atmosphere that helps you recharge after a night out.

Areas for Improvement

While the hotel is a luxury spot, it may not suit all budgets. Some guests noted that the rooms, while beautifully styled, vary in size. If space is a priority, consider upgrading to a larger room.

The Bottom Line

With its chic design, superb location, and relaxed luxury, The Pelham is a fantastic pick for concert-goers wanting a stylish, central, and peaceful stay in London.

You owe it to yourself...

Liked: Extremely well located, opposite South Kensington tube station, well-appointed air-conditioned room, quiet, with access to an elevator, a great breakfast and very efficient. The best thing about this hotel however, is the staff: all very welcoming, helpful, friendly—some of the best professional hotel staff I’ve had the pleasure to do business with anywhere. Very highly recommended, especially the front baggage gentleman who went out of his way to make my stay a true pleasure.
Disliked: I can’t think of a thing. Choosing this hotel for your stay in London is what Americans call a ‘no-brainer.’

Liked: Location. Excellent for Royal Albert Hall. Reasonably quiet too. We loved the honesty box approach to the late-night bar facility in the drawing room. And we loved the nice welcoming touch to celebrate our tenth wedding anniversary.
Disliked: The bath robe had a massive stain down the front. The floor in the main bedroom was stained too. The hot water tap in the bath was complicated!

Liked: I love the two drawing rooms & the design of the hotel’s rooms but the staff is also exceptional. I was traveling alone and they were so friendly & engaging. I was treated so well by all the staff and the breakfast staff made it fun to have breakfast. The bedrooms are very comfortable and the beds are exceptionally lovely. Each room has a unique design and they are gorgeous.

Liked: Beautiful boutique hotel. Helpful and friendly staff. Beautifully appointed room. Excellent breakfast. Great location. would star there again.
Disliked: Would have preferred a larger room and a larger bed. Didn’t like the optional service charge on check out. Having paid for a 5 star hotel I expected 5 star service.
