Relais & Chateaux adds second London property to its portfolio – Business Traveler

Chelsea Townhouse has joined the Relais and Chateaux collection of luxury hotels and restaurants as its second member in London.

The 36-room boutique property opened in September 2023 following an extensive transformation of the former Draycott Hotel, and is a sister property to current Relais & Chateaux member, 11 Cadogan Gardens.

The property is set in three red brick Victorian houses and is also part of the Iconic Luxury Hotels collection. For more information, see:
