Dorset Square Hotel
Dorset Square Hotel has experienced an extensive refurbishment, stamping it with designer Kit Kemp’s signature style: bold colours and textures, and bespoke and oneoff pieces of original art collected from around the globe. This beautiful Regency townhouse has 38 individually designed bedrooms, many of which look onto the leafy private garden square which was originally the site of Thomas Lord’s first cricket ground – witty references to the noble sport are scattered around the property.
The sumptuous guest drawing room with a fireplace and a fun bar-restaurant is open all day. The Potting Shed restaurant and bar proudly serves the best of British cooking (such as West Country lamb and Kentish goat’s cheese tart) and Mediterranean classics, along with a carefully selected wine list. The hotel is surrounded by fashionable shops, cafés, restaurants and world-class galleries in the exciting, urban area of Marylebone.
