The Colonnade

The Colonnade stands in the oasis of central London's Little Venice, a short walk to the charming Regent's Canal. Retreat behind the beautiful Victorian facade and discover a delightful boutique hotel. Sumptuous fabrics, lavish antiques and four-poster beds have been carefully selected to create a unique style and ambience in each room. Built as two private homes in 1865, The Colonnade now offers the very best in luxury combined with the intimacy of staying in a private home.

Food and Beverages

Breakfast is a real occasion at The Colonnade. Choose from the delicious buffet table or sample the traditional English breakfast - not to be missed. E Bar, the new bar and restaurant, offers an extensive cocktail and tapas menu in contemporary surroundings, with al fresco dining in the summer months on the terrace. The stunning glass roof evokes an air of simple sophistication where one can relax and unwind.

Location

The area is called Little Venice because of Regent's Canal, a beautiful waterway running through the neighbourhood. When staying at The Colonnade, take time to stroll along the Tow Path or ride a Narrow Boat and you'll find yourself experiencing Venice in London.

The Colonnade resides in a beautiful and quiet residential neighbourhood. Just minutes from Paddington Station, the hotel provides easy acces to the Heathrow Express, the London Underground and Lord's Cricket Ground.

Interior Design and History

Perfectly restored from its former Victorian elegance, The Colonnade provides the very best of London living. Both a tonic for the weary business traveller and an oasis in the city, this Town House allows guests the intimacy of a private residence with the five star service they deserve.

Each of the 43 guests rooms have been individually designed to take advantage of the building's architectural features and is adorned with rich fabrics and antiques, creating the feeling of an elegant, luxurious private home.

The Colonnade's beautiful suites, some of which are on split levels, each have a story to tell; the JFK Suite boasts the bed made for his visit in 1962, The Freud Suite celebrates his stay at the hotel in 1938 while the Turning Suite pays homage to the brilliant mathematition responsible for breaking the Enigma code during World War II, born here in 1912.

Built in 1865, The Colonnade was originally a private residence. The reception room still has the Wedgewood fireplace installed in the early 20th century and the hotel features an art deco lift from the 1920s - a remnant of the days when the building was a hospital.
