The Halkin is a haven in the heart of London’s Belgravia, promising discreet luxury where service is efficient and intimacy matters.
The look is elegantly contemporary, and its boutique size remains enduringly appealing. This home away from home is a place to relax and be waited on, to sleep and be reinvigorated, where serenity proves to be the essence of the hotel experience.
The supremely innovative design of Italian architects Laboratorio Associati of Milan is clear in the airy lobby and soaring atrium ceiling, with a stunning mural ‘skyscape’ created by Italian painter Valentino Vago. In The Halkin’s 41 guest rooms and suites comfort is fundamental and exquisite. The hotel is renowned for technically sophisticated in-room services, with state-of-the-art touch-screen consoles, on-demand movie and music selection and complimentary Wi-Fi access. For the discerning gourmand, hotel restaurant Nahm offers delectable Thai and eastern cuisine, courtesy of celebrated Australian chef David Thompson.
Exquisitely exclusive, The Halkin remains the capital’s best kept secret.
