THE FRANKLIN

​Sometimes, remaking the present begins with revisiting the past. The Franklin’s romance recalls a gilded age. Anouska Hempel’s elegantly opulent interiors achieve the seemingly impossible in this new Knightsbridge hotel. Her embroidered furnishings, Venetian stone floors and filigree silverware capture the spirit of a glorious bygone era and create something entirely modern.  The Franklin Boutique Hotel is as quintessentially English as its near neighbours Harrods and the V&A. But alongside the informal English townhouse ambience and relaxing London-garden views there are other more sensual, Eastern influences. A Hammam greets guests as part of our state-of-the art wellbeing offering and the bedrooms’ rich silks and cottons reveal The Franklin’s devotion to luxurious living touches every sense. Every one of the 35 spacious rooms and suites, including the 63 m2 Presidential Suite – the ultimate distillation of elegance and style – is flooded with light and exquisitely furnished for total comfort. Most offer views of Knightsbridge or the verdant parkland of Egerton Gardens. The Franklin is a 5-star hotel in London.  Set in the heart of Knightsbridge, The Franklin Hotel is also renowned for its restaurant, presided by Michelin-starred Chef Alfredo Russo, and the Gatsby-esque ambience of its stylish Bar.
