Chelsea's storied retreat on Sloane Street, where Oscar Wilde was arrested in Room 118. Today it's all hand-drawn de Gournay silk, a private garden key, and Belmond polish.
A stylist-led morning along the King's Road — private atelier appointments, closed-door gallery viewings and lunch at a Chelsea institution. Sixty years of style, distilled into three hours.
The Editor's Briefing
Chelsea wears its bohemian-past-meets-old-money present lightly: five-star hotels in Chelsea centre on The Cadogan, A Belmond Hotel, where Oscar Wilde's rooms face Sloane Street. The King's Road unfurls westward with galleries, antique dealers and the Saatchi's white cubes.
Stay here for boutique shopping without Bond Street's crowds, the Chelsea Physic Garden's riverside calm and evenings that end in neighbourhood restaurants rather than hotel bars.
